One of my favorite comedians — so sad.

Absolutely shocked, I took the last post on him to indicate that he wasn’t even critical anymore and was recovering well. So unexpected. This is just awful. Very sad news.

Damn. He was one of the good guys. His show was funny as hell, yet really sweet. I remember seeing him live, and i don’t think i’ve ever laugh so hard when he did the “milk n cookies” bit. Hilarious!!! I’ll miss him.

Oh, man, and he was such a stand-up guy. The premise of his TV show was based on his own experience taking in his sister’s kids. What a sad loss.

I’m shocked and am not quite sure how to deal with this. He was so young (50 is young- younger than my Mother) and so talented. Thanks for making me laugh Bernie. You will be missed!

Man Bernie, so sad to hear. I too thought you were on the upswing. Say hello to George Carlin for me. “So-long America.”

He was so so young to die of pneumonia

LOVE AND PRAYERS TO BERNIES FAMILY. I LOVED HIS SENSE OF HUMOR. SAD,SAD DAY.

Oh no! I didn’t think he would die from pneumonia at age 50….He was such a nice guy. This goes to show we need better antiobiotics as there is a strain of pneumonia where the strongest drugs won’t work anymore. Maybe that’s the kind Bernie had.

Scary- I just spent two weeks in the hospital with pneumonia that collapsed one of my lungs. I almost didn’t make it myself. Makes you realize how quickly life can take a wrong turn.

My husband told me about this this morning and it took awhile to sink in. I never watched his show but I was a fan of his stand-up comedy routine. He seemed to be a good soul and I am sure his family and friends feel his loss keenly.
Bonus dulcis vir, you will be missed.

Very sad. he seemed like a gentle man, and a class act.
RIP, BM!!!

How ironic that Bernie passed on the day of the Bud Billiken parade. The parade is a tribute to those that help the Chicago youth and is held on the South Side. Bernie is a South Sider that helped Chicago youth. I’m glad they could dedicate this year’s parade to his memory. He will be missed.

Thanks Bernie Mac for making us laugh. You came along when people of color were getting no respect nor roles on TV. I also thank you for exposing this whack generation to music (on your TV show), that had hipness, style, awareness and most importantly, talent. If only for a moment, many would question me then Google to find out who the artists where. I thank you for that. It’s a sad day but I’m LMAO remembering the funny things you shared with us!
R.I.P Bernie Mac!

My thoughts and condolences with his family and friends. 50 is still young and vibrant – it must be a shock to his wife and daughter.
Was it vdantev who called it in the last thread? one of those times you really do wish somebody was wrong.

Rest in peace Bernie.
Be at peace knowing you devoted your life to helping those close to you, and entertaining millions.
The world lost a good man today.

I was never a big fan, but I’m really sad for his family. And that he missed out on so much life. Sucks!

RIP Bernie. He crammed a lot of life into those 50 years, but still this was way, way too early. He missed the whole third act.

What a horrible shock, NO!! This news shocks me into tears. I gasped & started crying, I can’t believe this! I had the great pleasure of meeting and spending time talking to Bernie mac, several times, when I did some acting/stand-in work for his show a couple years ago, and you guys would be blown away how sweet how on the real, how awesome he is, he always remembered me when I’d come back for more work on his show. One time we sat together during a lull in shooting and had a long conversation together about the importance of Truth in art. He was one of those rare individuals who emanates a beautiful, intense glow from within, warmth and intelligence and a powerfully genuine charisma. Oh, this is horribl;e horrible.
This is my birthday today! And Bernie Mac’s deathday, this is too sad for words for me. How could HE die?? He’s so strong and healthy! WTF???

So sad and unexpected. What a tremendous talent and loving man. My thoughts go out to his wife and daughter…try to know that he is in a safe place, and probably cracking up with George Carlin at this very moment. You will be united with him again some day.

Wow, that was sudden. I had a bad feeling when they said pneumonia. It’s never just pneumonia. He had apparently been sick for a long time beforehand with a recurrent inflammatory lung condition. Good night, funny man.

I am truly sad. Chicago got a little darker today. It rained early today here in Chicago’s South Side. It is funny because the sun was shining and raindrops were falling pretty hard but then it stopped, and the sun was shining brightly. I guess Bernie Mac is already making them laugh up there! Rest In Peace Bernie Mac! And condolences go to the family!

I am in shock. I absolutely loved him. Even though I knew he was in hospital. I tookit for granted that he would make it. I am actually gutted and speechless. RIP.

I always favored him a little more than most people because he was a Chicagoan, just like me. Today is a sad day. :[

Daisy, I am from the North side, I guess. I was born in Evanston, and have lived in Chicago three different times in my childhood. I wasn’t from the South, like Bernie, but my best friend was. Right now I am in California though.

I just read that he has been married to his wife for 31 years! Can you imagine being with someone for a majority of your life and then suddenly being alone?
That poor woman. I can’t imagine the grief she and the rest of his family must be going through. He seemed like a big sweetie.

It’s so awful, Amy, he was the most sincerely and truly beautiful man you can imagine – a family man to the heart of him, as his longtime friend and fellow King of Comedy Steve Harvey was saying today in a brief CNN telephone interview. Bernie Mac was (I hate saying “was,” it still doesn’t sound at all right) a gentleman and an inconquerable soul, a brilliantly beautiful man who should have f**king lived longer. This is bullsHHt that he had to die. Alarming and infuriating. In 21st Century America, how can people die in hospitals with Pneumonia of all things?? I mean, this is unbearably unfair.
I will never forget this wonderful person, and I feel extremely fortunate to have had the time with him that I’ve had. I always thought I’d see him again, talk to him again, I just took it for granted that I would. Now what? Gone. I hate death. F**k death.
