It disturbs me that there hasn't yet been a MeFi post on Aaron Spelling's death.→[More:]It's not that I'm personally going to miss the man much, it's just that he died on the 23rd and I've been waiting for the (respectful) snarkfest ever since.

So, uh, here's a '.' to you Mr.-Way-Too-Fucking-Long IMDB profile. May you rest in peace, preferably in the warm glow of a schlocky television.

Bev-niner foreva!

I hated 90210. But I liked Starsky & Hutch.

I was going to mention it but then, well, I didn't.

Patsy Ramsey died too. Ovarian cancer.

E. Pierce Marshall died the same day as well. He's the son of the old guy that Anna Nicole Smith married, and had been fighting her in court to regain control of his father's fortune.

We know that like every Spelling project there'll be endless reruns, so we're waiting for those.

You just know that bitch Shannon Dougherty is going to finally show up to a reunion show just to stab poor defenseless Tori in the back while she gently weeps for her future Emmy.

Nice that Tori stayed in Canada promoting her show [sorry Canada] until after her dad died.

For Immediate release:

Bodog will be taking odds on who Paul Michael Glaser will grope, live on-air at the November Sweeps Spelling extravaganza. Currently the odds stand at:

Marcia Cross 50/1
Sandra Dee 200/1
Shannen Doherty 200/1
Linda Evans 10/1
Kate Jackson 25/1
Heather Locklear 5/2
Rose McGowan 2/1
Jill Whelan 100/1

Quote: "I wouldn't touch that skank Dougherty with a 10 foot pole. I've been eyeing Heather for years... although Rose may have an edge in the end. Tune in to find out how it ends up kids."

Note that Bodogs.com respects the Spelling household and will not place Tori in the list, although internally we believe that she's probably a sentimental 7/1.
