RIP Regis Philbin

TV Personality Regis Philbin died yesterday. He was 88.

I grew up watching him as the first US host of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. People also remembered him as cohost with Kathie Lee Gilford and later Kelly Ripa.

RIP Regis.

shun, I am so saddened by this. Regis was such a cool guy. I remember watching Regis and Kathy Lee as a kid when I was home sick from school, and later on with Millionaire, too. He had a great way of relating to the audience and a way of telling stories. Seemed so down to earth and approachable ...so sad. Prayers for family.

I was so sad to hear about the passing of this iconic man. I agree with KW, Regis had such a special gift for entertaining and relating to his audiences. My thoughts are with his family, friends, and fans during this sad time.

Regis joins a fairly long list of legendary entertainers that we have lost in the month of July, 2020.

I was shocked to see this too. I always loved watching Regis - he seemed like such a nice down to earth guy. May he RIP.
