Aaron Spelling died from the results of a stroke last night.

Over the 30 years he produced over 30 programs.

What was his masterpiece if any? Starksy and Hutch has to be among the top runners. :(

Well I for one will be mindfull of the reason Aaron Spelling is in my top 10 on my entry for Rotten.com's entry in that its said he is "suffering from an incurable disease". With the news that he has just suffered a minor stroke at the age of 83 the odds are only 50/50 he will be around for a year or so.

That was an excellent forecast Rotten Ali. Congratulations on your hit.

I have been lurking on this list for some time and it has given me a lot of insight (and the lead!) into my own Ghoul Pool here in Atlanta, Georgia.

 

But, I think for my first post here, I am the first to note that MSNBC.COM is reporting that Aaron Spelling is dead at age 83!!

That link doesn't work,

Aaron Spelling was the king of trash TV, I wouldn't want to watch any of the shows on that list.

I reckon this is the July effect hitting a week early. Last year the majority of deaths occurred in July - will it be the same agin this year, I wonder?

Pioneering television producer Aaron Spelling has died at the age of 83 at his home in Los Angeles.

 

After experimenting with minor film roles during the 1950s, Spelling later turned his talents to the production of television shows. 1963's Burke Law was one of his first forays into TV production, and the show went on to become a hit in the mid-1960s for ABC. During the 1970s and 1980s, Spelling developed a strong relationship with ABC, giving the network long-running hits including Fantasy Island and Dynasty.

 

In the 1990s, after ABC axed Dynasty, Spelling co-created iconic teen drama Beverly Hills, 90210 with Darren Star, a series that had a ten year run on Fox and went on to widespread domestic and international syndication. Spelling also found success in the '90s with 7th Heaven, which is still on-air and will form the anchor of new network The CW's Monday night lineup.

With the news that he has just suffered a minor stroke at the age of 83 the odds are only 50/50 he will be around for a year or so. Not the news I was expecting but as per Ariel Sharron it can be a matter of months following a minor stoke that happens a major one will follow that makes matters worse all the more likely.

 

To you and the Deathlist crew....nice choice.
