Billy Mays' Son: South Park Did My Family Proud

Posted Oct 9th 2009 3:00PM by TMZ Staff

Billy Mays: Click to launchThis may be the first time "South Park" and "tasteful" have ever been used in the same sentence -- but Billy Mays' son thinks the show did a "tasteful" job spoofing his departed dad on this week's episode.

Earlier today, Billy Mays III called into the MJ Morning Show raving about how proud he was to have his dad appear as a cartoon ghost ... who threatened to beat up the ghost of Patrick Swayze.

For the record -- it was pretty damn funny.

Considering the pitchman's death was about three months ago, Mays was shockingly positive -- and said "things are looking up."

4. It was one of the funniest South Park episodes in a while, i was cracking up about everything they had on that episode. I know there's gonna be alot of what you call "haters" who don't like South Park but it's the best comedy show and screw family guy. It's also funny that people say they try nothing but to shock people, but the truth is everything on the show is what's going on in real life. Peace and South Park rules!

8. I used to fall asleep on the couch and Billy Mays' voice would undoubtedly wake me up around 3:00 AM, when I would shut the TV off and go to bed. Miss ya Billy.

10. I didn't see the episode on TV, I saw it online...and I'm assuming that what they showed on TV had a different ending than what I just watched. The plane landed in Hell on the South Park site. Is that really what Billy Mays's kid thought was tasteful?

11. To#11: The TV version ended the same, but I don't remember seeing Billy Mays on the plane. I loved Billy Mays for Chipotle-way, that was just to funny!

14. One of the best SP episodes in a long time. I laughed the entire time. Cartman loved Billy Mays and so did alot of people. We miss ya Billy but things like this are a great reminder of how you were. R.I.P. Biilly

15. The episode was hilarious. Billy III has been amazingly positive through everything. I'd say his dad would be proud all the way around.
