RIP Stephen J. Cannell

[TVYesteryear]

Stephen J. Cannell was responsible for producing and writing some of my favorite tv shows of all time. In the 80's, I probably watched one of his shows at least 3 or 4 times a week, either in first run or syndication. Two of my favorites were The Greatest American Hero and Rockford Files. I also enjoyed A-Team, Hardcastle & McCormick, Riptide, Black Sheep Squadron (aka Baa Baa Black Sheep), and The Commish. It's sad to think he will no longer be producing great new shows to entertain us, but he left quite a legacy that continues to entertain us and new generations of fans.
