Re: Bernie Mac
We only started watching the Bernie Mac show this past year......
He is one that I am sad to see go so early.

Re: Bernie Mac
Sad news. I liked him a lot in the Oceans's 11 films. Seemed like a fun guy.

Re: Bernie Mac
Isn't kind of weird that a rich, young guy like him would die of pneumonia? Surely he had health insurance and good doctors? I think there's probably more to this story.

There is. He had a lung disease that has beeen in remission but affected his body and it's immune system. Acutally the medication he was on weakened his immune system.

Re: Bernie Mac
One comment about him was that the father he played on the show was a level headed, highly principaled, strict and conservative compared to other chuckleheads only pretending to be fathers...

Re: Bernie Mac
I don't really know anything about him but I did read today that he has been married to his wife for 30 years which is an amazing feat in Hollywood.

Although he occasionally played a sort of out-of-touch-with-this-generation sort of father on the Bernie Mac show, more often than not he was shown to have the 'real wisdom' and ultimately know what he was talking about by the end of the episode. A rarity now a days.
