LOS ANGELES -- Aaron Spelling, a onetime movie bit player who created a massive number of hit series, from the vintage "Charlie's Angels" and "Dynasty" to "Beverly Hills 90210" and "Melrose Place," died Friday, his publicist said. He was 83.
Spelling died at his home in Los Angeles after suffering a stroke on June 18, according to publicist Kevin Sasaki.
Spelling's other hit series included "Love Boat," "Fantasy Island," "Burke's Law," "The Mod Squad," "Starsky and Hutch," "T.J. Hooker," "Matt Houston," "Hart to Hart" and "Hotel." He kept his hand in 21st-century TV with series including "7th Heaven" and "Summerland."
He also produced more than 140 television movies. Among the most notable: "Death Sentence" (1974), Nick Nolte's first starring role; "The Boy in the Plastic Bubble" (1976), John Travolta's first dramatic role; and "The Best Little Girl in the World" (1981), which starred Jennifer Jason Leigh.

Aaron Spelling was a powerhouse in the TV world, some would call him a TV mogul. His legacy that is left behind could rival any hollywood executive's empire in reach and impact on today's pop culture. I mean he has made a fortune by bringing creative shows and TV movies to our television sets for close to 4 decades. He has got to be close to the billion dollar mark. RIP Mr. Spelling. I wonder how much his daughter gets? :cool:

I think there are many Hollywood people that have a dedicated room for gifts and gift wrapping, he's one of them. Tori just inherited a s#@* load of money. :eek: That Toronto guy that married her recently knew what he was doing. lol

ahhh gone is the only reason that Tori ever got an acting job with that lack of talent and that horse face, but lucky for her she just got a boat load of money so it evens out.

So, the old man has a stroke, and the daughter is covorting around town at the Much Music Video Awards?

That makes sense.
