Glen A. Larson R.I.P - *Kal-El* - 16-11-2014 04:58
Writer and producer Glen A. Larson has died at the age 77 of esophageal cancer, Larson gave us shows like Knight Rider, Six Million Dollar Man, Quincy M.E, Magnum Pi, Buck Rogers, The Fall Guy, Manimal, Battlestar Galactica and many more shows.
Thank you Glen A. Larson for being a important part of my childhood you will be sadly missed.

I slag off American telly a lot, and with good reason, but you can't slag off this guy. Look at those shows! Think of the great iconic performances of Jack Klugman, Lee Majors, Tom Selleck and er, David Hasselhoff, and consider the man who made it happen. I believe he also co-wrote the theme tune to The Fall Guy as well (and they don't make them like that any more).
RIP

His shows were exciting and tense viewing. I'm sure he was also responsible for Alias Smith and Jones. Thank you Mr Larsen for making my childhood telly the best viewing ever.

Sad to hear and could not say it better myself. Like many in here I imagine, I grew up watching his programmes.

Anyone remember Automan?
He did create Alias Smith and Jones and co-write the theme tune to The Fall Guy as you both stated, as well as creating and writing the theme tune to B.J. and the Bear.
Thank you for some great programmes. R.I.P.
