Los Angeles - Prolific television
producer Aaron Spelling, whose shows include Beverly Hills
90210, Dynasty, Charlie's Angels, Love Boat and Melrose Place, suffered a stroke over the weekend and was briefly hospitalised, his spokesperson said on Wednesday.
Spokesperson Kevin Sasaki said the 83-year-old Spelling, whose
series helped shape prime time television and boost the careers
of such stars as Heather Locklear and Nick Nolte, was being
cared for at home.
Sasaki said he had no details of the extent of the stroke
but said that the fact he was released from the hospital was a
positive sign.
Spelling is the father of actress Tori Spelling, who
starred on Beverly Hills 90210 and actor Randy Spelling.
Among his other television series are Fantasy Island,
Burke's Law, Starsky and Hutch and Hart to Hart.
