In the wake of Regin Philbin’s death, ABC<\/a> News will pay tribute to the television pioneer’s life and legacy with the primetime special Regis Philbin<\/a>: The Morning Maestro – A Special Edition of 20\/20. <\/em>The special will air on July 28 at 8pm ET.<\/p>\n

Philbin is known for hosting the Live <\/em>franchise for 28 years. First with Kathie Lee Gifford and then with Kelly Ripa. The special edition of 20\/20<\/em> will feature an exclusive interview with Ripa who now co-hosts Live with Kelly and Ryan.<\/em><\/p>\n

The program will also include Philbin’s final television interview with Jimmy Kimmel in March 2020 as well as, interviews with his co-hosts through the years including Gifford and Mary Hart, interviews with his childhood friends, a tour of the Bronx where he grew up, an emotional surprise visit with students at his high school, and a trip down memory lane with Philbin screening some of his favorite clips of Live.<\/em><\/p>\n

Philbin died on July 24 from natural causes. He was 88, one month shy of his birthday.<\/p>\n

Gifford took to Instagram to honor Philbin saying<\/a>, “there are no words to fully express the love I have for my precious friend, Regis. I simply adored him and every day with him was a gift.<\/p>\n

“As people get older, you always know that certain things are inevitable, and passing away is one of those things, but Regis is one of the people that we all believed, I think, would somehow figure out a way around the inevitable. It was not in the cards,” Ripa said on Live<\/em> Monday morning<\/a>.<\/p>\n

David Sloan will serve as senior executive producer of the special. John R. Green is executive producer. Matt Lombardi is co-executive producer<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
