    His family was in on the choice to let the commercials roll on.

    No, he may have had a contract for them to run for a certain time, and this will benefit his heirs.

    His estate is still making money. I think he'd get a kick out of that.

    Lets hope they have asked his family if they are okay with it. If not... yes I think it would be in poor taste.

    I at first liked him, then the TV just seemed to be flooded with him shouting out he‘s sales pitch.. So I started to change the channel every time he was on because It got to be irritating to hear. I was surprised to hear that Cocaine was found in he's test after he died. If people keep buying he's products, they’ll keep him selling. When the sales dry up, so will he's commercials.

    It has to do with money. Taste has no power when money is involved.
