A TELEVISION MASTER HAS PASSED ON

We lost Aaron Spelling today. You may or may not recognize the name, but he is known to all to keep up with the television business as the world's most prolific producer. The shows that he has been involved in one way or another with numbers nearly 200. They range from cop shows such as Starsky and Hutch and T.J. Hooker to detective programmes like Charlie's Angels and Hart to Hart to dramas such as Dynasty, Beverly Hills 90210, and Melrose Place.

While he has rarely given interviews in recent years, he did state in one that of all the programmes he has been involved with, his favourite is the WB Network family drama 7th Heaven, which ends it's run this season.

Spelling had suffered a severe stroke five days ago at his Los Angeles home. He had previously been diagnosed with oral cancer in 2001. Spelling was 83 at his passing this morning.

RIP
