We Miss you, Regis

 Regis Philbin - Death, Family & Facts - Biography I can't believe 2020 has had more deaths, and this one well...not much of a surprise, but somewhat sad.


   Born on August 25th in the year 1931, Regis Philbin was born. His early career in life started around the 1960's having his own talk show. 

Television Personality Regis Philbin Dies at 88 - WSJ It was a syndicated tv show, and he replaced Steve Allen. He also had another show called "The Morning show" with another host named Cyndy Garvey. He later went to another memorable talk show called...

Seinfeld - The Coffee Table Book GIF | Gfycat I've always liked him, but I never was a fan of Kathy Lee/ She somewhat had a negative tone with everyone. She later was convinced that, with her clothing style being made by children. Regis tried to get along with her like I did. They even did guest appearences on TV shows like Simpsons and Seinfeld (where Kramer tried to show off his book about Coffee tables)

Batter Blaster on Live with Regis and Kelly - YouTube Kelly Ripa joined Regis in the 13th season. I couldn't stand her, but she was ok. She started appearing in 2001 and it semed that they were getting along ok.

Until Regis announced his retirement by the 24th season.
