Discovery Channel’s “PitchMen!” was the show that took Billy Mays from a cult hero to a national Icon. It also made Anthony Sullivan a household name. The show was more than selling products. It was a glimpse into the risks inventors take to make their dreams come true. Here at As Seen on TV Life, we liveblogged every episode of season 2 of “PitchMen!” and, some day, we’ll go back and do Season 1. We also reviewed the products displayed on the show.
Please take a moment to look over our selection of PitchMen reviews for both the show & the products and please let us know what you think. Also, if you have pictures of you and friends with Billy, Sully or any of the Sullivan Products crew, we’d love to share them for you. If not on our site, than at least on our Facebook page.
