GREAT Tv in the 80s. I loved 8pm or 9 pm any day of the week. Anything with Donald P Bellisario and Glen A Larson was great TV. Fun adventures. Good guys vs. bad guys. Babes in swimsuits.
They even managed to make David Hasselhof cool. Awesome musical scores. Now... I read a lot...

He died in Lynwood which is a city within Los Angeles. Not a good part either. Right next to Compton.... riot central.
In a search his net worth was $3 million.

Bellasario, Larson, and Cannell were a gold mine in the 80’s sort of like Irwin Allen in the 60’s.

I was just talking to my daughter about growing up in the '80s and '90s (High school and college in 80s, my 20s in the '90s) and I said I had better life experiences in the '90s but if I had to time travel to one of those decades and live through the whole thing I'd choose the '80s. I know I have rose colored glasses about it but it was just a much more upbeat, optimistic decade compared to the more cynical '90s and I'd rather live like the '80s at this point in my life.

I was born in 1966 so like you, the 1980's were the years I really started to experience life. We had problems like the mills closing in Pittsburgh and so forth but it was an optimistic time as well, we felt things were going to get better. I watched "Miracle" the other day about the 1980 Olympic Hockey Team and Herb Brookes. The film did a good job at showing how down we were then with the gas crisis and Iran, although it wasn't as bad as it is now, at least we had most of our morals then. I think the 1980's truly began along with the optimism when the U.S. Hockey Team took the Gold Medal at Lake Placid. It took time for the momentum to build up but you could say it was the reboot that we needed.
