    Just saw this on comcast.net. Such sad news. He was a real tv institution!
    He sings it high, he plays it low

    Aww - how sad. He was definitely a 'good soldier' and he is forever immortalized with his "H-e-e-e-e-e-ere's Johnny!" My heart goes out to his family and may he rest in peace.

McMahon was a regular at those and before and after the Brunch he would wander around inside the Casino speaking to people who were playing there.

    He looked terribly underweight and fragile then.

    How sad - a TV legend. My thoughts are with his family.

    Ed McMahon did a wonderful job being Johnny Carson's straight man. I loved their chemistry.

    It's a perfect occupation for me.
