TV Producer Aaron Spelling Dead at 83



Spelling died at his mansion in Los Angeles after suffering a stroke on June 18, according to publicist Kevin Sasaki.

Spelling's TV Series include:

Charlie's Angels
The Love Boat
Fantasy Island
Starsky & Hutch
T.J. Hooker
Dynasty
Hart to Hart
Hotel
Melsrose Place
Beverly Hills 90210
The Mod Squad

As well as 140 made for tv movies.

Throughout his career, Spelling maintained the same image: the skinny frame, slightly hawkish face. He usually posed with a pipe in his mouth, a custom he adopted early after seeing stars with pipes in fan magazine photos.

Spelling and his second wife, Candy, had two children, Tori (for Victoria), who became a star on Beverly Hills 90210 ("Now I'm known as Tori Spelling's father," he said in mock lament), and Randy, who appeared in the short-lived "Malibu Shores."

Hi D. Prince,
Aaron Spelling was an exceedingly talented man. His death is sad, but he had 83 productive and hopefully good years on this earth. He will be missed.

I was a fan of all of his cheesy shows. I really don't think we'll ever see another Aaron Spelling.
