R.I.P. TV Producer Glen A. Larson

Glen A. Larson Dies at 77

Glen A. Larson, creator of shows such as Battlestar Galactica, Knight Rider, and The Six Million Dollar Man, died Friday night at UCLA Medical Center in Santa Monica. His son, James, confirmed with The Hollywood Reporter. Larson had been battling esophageal cancer.

Harlan Ellison famously called him “Glen A. Larceny,” for ripping off movies as TV series.

Still, many hours of my life went to view a few of his productions.

Rest in peace.
