Comment on Secrets of TV Pitchmen Billy Mays and Anthony Sullivan

For some reason, I can actually respect these guys. I would never buy any of the junk they're pushing, but I must admit to enjoying the show. Especially Vince Offer. Normally that nasal 'yankee' voice sickens me, but I guess it's part of the charm in this case.

Ronco is interesting--I'd forgotten that Ron Popeil actually invented a lot of the stuff he sells. (Didn't he have a daughter that sang with Frank Zappa in a concert or two as well?)
