I have seen over a dozen commercials for this on multiple channels. This is no better than the way the John and Kate plus 8 divorse/affair was sensationalized and marketed. It is morbid, and playing on pain and suffering for money. Will they not track their ratings? Will they not increase their rates for the show? Seriously, this is a sad instance for a good show, but why do we really feel we have a part in it? I feel for the families and friends, but we are just viewers looking in the fish bowl. You are free to feel however you feel, and I feel the way I feel. I am sorry he is gone.

Me too, and probably a hundred radio commercials over the past week as well. They may have handled the show itself fairly well (though I must admit being uncomfortable with the boys fighting on camera and the shots of Phil in the hospital toward the end)but the endless commercials had all the charm of a wild west undertaker selling glimpses of the gunslinger's corpse for a nickle.
