Discovery Channel’s Wednesday “Pitchmen” marathon will proceed as planned in the wake of star Billy Mays’ death, but the network isn’t commenting on the future of the series, the New York Daily News says.
The infomercial host Mays was found dead, of heart disease, Sunday in his home in Tampa. The final episode of “Pitchmen,” which followed Mays and a partner as they evaluated new products to pitch, will also air tomorrow evening as planned, along with a graphic noting his death.
