They aren't going to stop running them. He devoted his life to those products

As an advertiser I wouldn't want people thinking "he's dead" while watching the commercial - I want them focused on the product - I'd
pull commercials for at least week. And I would be making new ones stat.

People loved Billy Mays, if someone is going to buy some Oxy Clean him being dead won't stop them. He became a pop culture figure, I doubt
they'll re-film any of the existing ads

but if anything i could see people going to buy it bc of him.
he's popular and everyone knows him and knows his products. putting someone else in
there isn't going to be the same.
