The Pitchmen show is doing a marathon and then a season finale.

The show changed my opinion of Billy Mays and the people involved in the marketing industry (yes, I'm susceptible to making quick judgments about things that I don't think about often) for the better, though my opinion of the industry itself hasn't changed. For me, it just seems to be a remarkable reflection of human nature and psychology, and one I find at once both incredibly interesting and somewhat depressing.

I did like the guy, or at least what I saw of him, though I'm not going to pretend that his death is any more remarkable or important than someone of supposedly lower stature.
