He was stable last time I heard, I can't beleive it:crying:

[The Nameless]

Wow, Bernie Mac is dead? I can't believe it!

Why is everybody dying this year? Heath Ledger is dead, George Carlin is dead, Tim Russert is dead, now this.

[StormBlue]

I had completely forgotten that he was having health issues as of late. This news has taken me by surprise.

Just wow.

[Juu-kuchi]

Aw, RIP Bernie Mac.

[Knight]

Wow. I didnt even know he had been put into the hospital. Im shocked. RIP.

[garfield15]

This...well...I didn't think this was going to happen. I also thought he was stable. R.I.P.

[XOMiss_Samantha]

This came as SUCH a shock to me. I had actually heard it while watching the Olympic basketball game this morning. Me and my dad just looked at each other in confusion. I didn't even know he was ill.
Major R.I.P

[Zen Man]

RIP Bernie Mac. :(

Gonna be hard watching his show for awhile. God Bless his family.

[FightingDreamer]

Well... that was unexpected. 'Tis a sad thing indeed; he was a talented actor and comedian, and he'll surely be missed. My deepest condolences to his friends and family.

[Nexonius]

Now, there are only 3 Original Kings Of Comedy (D.L. Hughley, Steve Harvey, and Cedric The Entertainer) left.


:(

[Old Guy]

Why is everybody dying this year? Heath Ledger is dead, George Carlin is dead, Tim Russert is dead, now this.

Carlin was old, so not a real shock. However, yea, it has been a year of random deaths.

RIP, Bernie.

[Ishtar]

This is not what I wanted to hear after waking up. What a sad and unexpected turn of events. He was a great comedian, and he'll surely be missed. May he rest in peace.

[Nel]

Damn!

I loved his comedy and actually didn't mind his show. I hate waking up to this type of news, which seems to be happening alot this year.

R.I.P. Mr. Mac.:sad:

[Mikintosh]

This is awful, worse for me than Carlin dying. I thought he wasn't looking healthy when I saw pictures of him recently, but they said his pneumonia was getting better...Damn. You'll be missed, Bernie Mac.

[Brandon Pierce]

Goodbye bernie Mac. Wasn't he on the old SNL?

[Blackstar]

This news is truly sad to hear, especially considering that the imflammatory lung disease that forced the end of his FOX sitcom was in remission since 2005. I was really hoping that he would up and about again.

R.I.P., Bernie Mac. :(

[Silverstar]

Goodbye Bernie Mac. Wasn't he on the old SNL?

If you mean the original cast, no, that was Garret Morris. But I think Bernie Mac hosted SNL once, just not the original SNL.

I am truly shocked and saddened by this news. It seemed like he was making a steady recovery. Truly sad.

RIP.

[FidoMcCokefiend]

I didn't know anything about this. I found out from this thread.

[J. B. Warner]

Well, this was unexpected - I didn't even know he was having trouble. Shame, indeed. Rest in peace, Bernie.

[Tay the Cat]

Carlin was old, so not a real shock. However, yea, it has been a year of random deaths.

RIP, Bernie.

The thing with Carlin was that it was amazing he lived as long as he did, considering his lifestyle and everything.

[Wonderwall]

Wow, just yesterday like many of you guys said, I read that he was doing ok. I always liked Bernie so this is a little upsetting. RIP.

[Speedy Cerviche]

Wow this is a shocker, when I first found out I had know there were earilier reports of his death that were fake so I had to check out CNN and MSNBC, their both reporting it so I had to face the sad truth that he was dead.

R.I.P. Bernie you will be missed.

[Fifi Fanatic]

Rest in Peace, Mr. 3000.


We're losing too many good ones this year.

[WolfieKiwi]

This is just horrible news. For someone to die at a relatively middle age and under "stable" health conditions----I don't ever remember hearing he had health problems...

Rest in Peace, Bernie Mac. Bless your soul.

[Tanooki]

a real shock and a real shame. RIP mr. mac

i knew pneumonia is a serious condition (had a bad bout of it last year myself), but i was not aware it could just up and take you like that

[Zero Kagayaki]

Rest in Peace Mr.Mac

[Assembler]

:crying: This is a horrible way to start a Saturday. He will never be forgotten.

[Tay the Cat]

a real shock and a real shame. RIP mr. mac

It usually doesn't, though with those with underlying conditions like him (or those who are really old in age), it's a big thing.

[Jacob T. Paschal]

He lives on in our hearts and memories.

R.I.P. Mr. Mac. :crying:

[Movie06]

0_0 That was unexpected yet sad.

RIP

Why are alot of people dying this year? First Ledger, then Carlin, and now Bernie Mac? What the hell?

[DarthGonzo]

Why are alot of people dying this year? First Ledger, then Carlin, and now Bernie Mac? What the hell?

It's called mortality. These things happen, sadly.

[Linkpre]

This was really surprising. I didn't expect him to die so early.

I really did enjoy his work, his small role in the movie Friday was one of my favorites from him. Rest in Peace and thanks for all the laughs.

[KCJ506]

Damnit people, why'd you all wake me up to this? >_<

Rest in Peace Bernie.

[Desensitized]

Wow, that was totally unexpected. :sad:

[Cortez2301]

Man, I really can't believe it.May he rest in Peace.

[RedNinja84]

Wow I use to watch his show on Fox. RIP

[Andrew T. Hingson]

Oh my word... I just don't know what to say to respond to this. God bless his family and may he rest in peace. He was taken far too soon.

[Light Lucario]

This was unexpected. I'm surprised that he passed so early in life. May he rest in peace and I send positive thoughts and prayers for his friends and family at this hard time for them.

[ROBOTRON]

Couldn't believe this when I first heard it...RIP.:sad:

[kewlmyc]

I heard over a text message, didn't believe it at first. RIP Bernie Mac.:crying:

[Raditz]

Wow... I can't believe this. SO unexpected.

R.I.P. Bernie Mac:sad:

I put this in a spoiler box, just so I wouldn't kill the mood.

Yeahhhhh...

[thenewme93]

Damn bummer....he was a great comedian...

[Zechs]

I was surprised he wasn't that old either. R.I.P

[stargirl]

:eek: Damn! That's not what I read in my local newspaper today; it said he was responding well to treatments. At first I thought his death was a rumor.

I really liked his show and he was funny...RIP Mr. Mac. You will be missed greatly. :crying:

I can't believe it...Carlin, Russert, Ledger, and now this. What a sad year...:sad:

[Jtaylor1]

I thought so too especially the Sinbad actor "succumbed to a fatal heart attack" and the Steve Burns "died of drug overdose" rumors.

But Who's next in line? It could be Bob Barker or Robin Williams.

Remember, Rod Rodney was a great announcer for TPIR and the voice of Mike from Disney's House of Mouse.

[Harvey Two Face]

I was very disheartened by this when I read it this morning, with a thought of disbelief, R.I.P. Bernie Mac

[Aces 21]

Such a great comedian and actor. He will be missed, and deepest sympathies to his friends and family.

[Rook]

its not over, Isaac Hayes at 65. Make a new thread if ya want, just pointing it out

[Dark Fact]

Jeez...I've been watching Bernie Mac's show on FOX recently. I can't believe he's gone just like that! :eek: :crying:

[Mala Loba]

Boy, just reminds you clear and simple: don't take life for granted, people go in the blink of an eye.

My condolences to his family and friends... he was a very funny man. I remember my mother and I would be laughing all night over his show. :(

[warnerbroman]

to think I though this thread was going to be about Morgan freeman due to the timing

but this was unexpected
