RIP Mike Bongiorno

Mike Bongiorno has died. The King of Italy's TV hosts since the 1950s, was born in New York on May 26, 1924, had a heart attack around noon today while he was in Monte Carlo. Nothing could have predicted his death, the popular television host left yesterday morning from Milan, to spend a short vacation in Monte Carlo before diving into a new television adventure, a quiz show on the Sky Network, that would have brought back the lucky series "Rischiatutto". Mike Bongiorno appeared in one European western 1972's "They Call Me Providence" as Mike Goodmorning.

    mi dispiace tantissimo.
    Però Mike diveva 'Allegria!' ed è un dovere di seguire il suo famoso motto.
    RIP Mike
