Aaron Spelling was not a secret mole sent to glorify Reagonomics. He was a great television producer who mirrored society's interests with all of his shows.

While I don't watch much TV and mostly consider it an idiot box, the argument has always existed as to whether art is imitating life or life is imitating art. Either way, the man was masterful at his game and for that he is commended. Most of the shows he produced has such broad appeal that they had great staying power.

Sure he did a couple things that were objectionable....building that eyesore of an estate and giving Tory a career to name two...but being villified as though he single handedly fathered the ME GENERATION is pure crap.

RIP Aaron and thanks for having a good eye for entertainment.
