From 2000: Informercial king Ron Popeil

[@antoniodiego9357]

I grew up watching this guy. Many, many late nights I’ve found myself watching this guy after smoking a fatty and being completely entertained. RIP RON

[@eddiea3782]

Oh man, the memories this brings back. I loved his commercials. I just couldn't walk away from one of his commercials. I and my family owned a lot of his products. He was amazing.

[@Clutchpearls]

I was a kid of the 90"s i remember watching him on cold snowy days for hours! Such a good salesman.

[@iamthamon1]

me too I better I bet if you find those items in the thrift store they're going to be worth thousands of dollars

[@posthumanismkarma6120]

Yeah same lol

[@zelmoziggy]

@@iamthamon1 You can get a brand-new Veg-O-Matic for $29 at Walmart.

[@MattJr4793]

RIP Ron Popeli thanks for keeping me awake in the middle of the night as a kid because I always loved watching your Ronco infomercials & your products are absolutely amazing 😔🙌🎊💚

[@russburton8517]

RIP Ron. I bought a number of his products over the years. The dehydrator was the best I bought. Made great jerky and fruit

[@john-smith.]

me 2 around 1991

[@johnedwardjones999]

I was a communications major...Ron was amazing and taught me a lot. Such a smart, fun, creative guy...Thank you!

[@barbarakosloski9260]

RIP Ron Popeil. He was one infomercial spokesperson I enjoyed watching. Billy Mays was the other. Billy's energy was through the roof.

[@Robert8455]

RIP Ron. Such a likeable king of guy with all kinds of gadgets and wait there's more....

[@JonesDylan874]

We will always remember "SET IT AND FORGET IT!" R.I.P., Ron Popeil.

[@expertexcavatinginc]

Oh I've owned so many of these products and honestly I was never disappointed. I still have some of them and they still work. RIP to a legend, his infomercials made you want to watch him cook an egg and not look away...

[@mm7846]

I did grow up watching those infomercials. Who knew he was so handsome in his youth.

[@act4666]

Smart man!!! I’ll miss Ron.

[@alchomfeld]

What a remarkable person. He'll be greatly missed.

[@cmoouk14]

He's the kind of American the rest of the world smiles at - very American but in a good way

[@sirluke7]

A pleasant man and marketing genius. RIP Ron.... (I still own Ronco record albums)

[@susieuramoto7491]

He was a big part of my childhood, and I remember buying several of his products as Christmas gifts for my family. RIP

[@billyrichards8834]

To THIS DAY, I actually STILL OWN some of his products.

[@CookFromHell86]

He was an incredibly meticulous inventor. I love his products, we still have many of his products from the late '80s and early '90s. They all still work like a charm without the replacement parts being ordered or needed.

[@teenblue8147]

Rest in peace Ron Popeil

[@zibbyzubb]

I admired him so much. RIP Ron Popeil.

[@bentauschek2697]

i would like thank ron popeil for his cooperation on television.

[@williameichner7177]

Yes there's only one and he smiles all the way to the bank everyday

[@alexthompson9516]

Or did, as it were.

[@slevinkelevra5901]

I always wanted a the showtime rotisserie 😊

[@barbarakosloski9260]

If it wasn't cheaper to buy at the grocery store (2 for $10), I would have bought one too.

[@bryson217]

As someone who would play hooky from school on occasion, thank you Mr. Popeil.

[@B9Robot]

R.I.P. May God's Love be with your family and friends.

[@88Doug]

This is legit inspiring! Love that guy my dad and always watched him!

[@SandyWolf-]

Genius that never got the credit he deserved!

[@rogerwhittaker4189]

I remembered watching this guy on the weekends growing up when there's no school and catch phrase set it and forget it.

[@Concertinasmonumento23]

GLH it’s my favourite product

[@justjae4267]

I’m not even asking for a friend, I could use about 5 of those gadgets.

[@louisgrassimedium]

One thing I love is the Ronco name is still very much alive today, even if he isn't connected to it, and wasn't at the time of death... And if you're a real fan, many of his original products (some still in shrink wrap!) are all over Ebay :)

[@LovingAtlanta]

🙏RIP dear sweet man, RIP🙏💝

[@faylinameir]

I loved watching him on TV and the rotisserie and pasta machine were awesome :) I got a lot of those products I think as a child too!

[@commercialguy5321]

Remember mornings I woke up early and saw this guy all over the television.........

[@eewilson9835]

The Food Dehydrator cmon guys, its a no brainer, ya take a banana ya soak it in honey after thinly or thickly slicing it, cmon guys, its delicious. The crowd Roars.

[@eewilson9835]

That man that felt the back of Ron's head never washed his hand again, news camera guy, never touched film again, and the Boom mic guy is still gripping that equipment in a mental assylum to this day.

[@hopeclayburnsax9369]

I know it’s weird to say but I never realized how nice his lips were. 😂 I’m always thinking of things to invent after years of watching him. RIP Ron.

[@posthumanismkarma6120]

Aww I remember him and the chicken roaster that he sold

[@iLoveBoysandBerries]

I met Ron last week after quarantine he's still selling new products

[@sirluke7]

Well glad you got to meet him... he had a date with St. Peter... I hear he was hocking Ronco Turbo Pearly Gate Openers to God.

[@WhoDeanyUnchained]

There needs to be a movie made about this guy.....starring Jim Carrey

[@kimshatteen222]

Oh my goodness the shoulder pads in the jackets

[@aubsta1]

LOve it!

[@LemurJackson]

Lip filler or natural?
