The Man Who Turned TV Into Absolute Shit Buys A Farm

"Santa Monica, CA— Prolific television writer and the creator or co-creater of some amazing shows Glen A. Larson died Friday after a battle with esophageal cancer. He was 77.

If you watched any television whatsoever between 1975 and 1985, odds are good you saw something he wrote or produced.

Larson was the showrunner and creator or co-creator of such 70s and 80s television gems as “Magnum, PI,” “Manimal,” “Knight Rider,” “Quincy, ME,” “Battlestar Galactica” and “Fall Guy.” First getting his start as a singer in the musical group “The Four Preps,” he also wrote many of the songs used as his series’ theme songs. Take a minute to go watch the opening to the “Fall Guy,” and sing along to “The Unknown Stuntman.” We’ll wait, go ahead."


I knew someone had to be responsible for such horrid bad 80's pulp TV. And he was no Mike Post.

I read he was an intern on the Perry Mason show.

If so, bet he worked on the catering table.

Maybe he was Raymond Burr's fluffer.....
