For those insomniacs who've found themselves sitting in front of the television at 3 a.m. on more than one occasion, infomercials are entertainment staples. Even if you regularly sleep through the night, you're sure to have caught one of these half-hour or hour-long sales pitches at one time or another.
Who can forget hawkers like Billy Mays (OxiClean), Ron Popeil (Showtime Rotisserie), Matthew Lesko (Free Money) and Billy Blanks (Tae Bo) trying to sell us a cleaner home or a more toned body? These infomercial stars have become celebrities of sorts, as recognizable as the actors in TV shows.
