The mind behind Battlestar, Knight Rider, The Six Million Dollar Man and many more has passed away.
Glen A. Larson, creator of the 1978 Battlestar Galactica series, has died at the age of 77.
THR reports that Larson passed away Friday night of esophageal cancer at UCLA Medical Center in Santa Monica.
Along with Battlestar Galactica, Larson also created the pioneering TV hits Quincy M.E., Magnum, P.I., Knight Rider, The Fall Guy, and The Six Million Dollar Man. He added up to 513 hours of television and 21 combined seasons from 1976 to 1988. Battlestar may have only lasted one season from 78 to 79, but it of course led to Ron Moore's brilliant 2004 reboot.
Larson also created the shows Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, Alias Smith & Jones, B.J. and The Bear, Switch, Manimal, and The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo.

Bond 24 may have found itself a villain, with Daily Mail reporter Baz Bamigboye reporting that Christoph Waltz has signed on to join the production.
The reporter broke the news via his Twitter feed, going on to reveal that the film will begin shooting in early December in Mexico, Morocco, Austria, Italy and London.
Should the rumour prove to be true, Waltz will be aided and abetted by Dave Bautista’s henchman, while Lea Seydoux is also thought to be on board as a classic femme fatale.
No specific plot details have been revealed as yet, but Waltz feels like a good fit for a traditional Bond villain, so hopefully we’ll get official confirmation on this sooner rather than later.
Directed by Sam Mendes and co-starring Daniel Craig, Ralph Fiennes and Ben Whishaw, Bond 24 will open in the UK on 23 October 2015.

"Ashes to ashes and dust to dust...": the new single "Asche zu Asche" (strictly limited edtion on MCD in limited Digipaks & on lavish limited & hand-numbered picture vinyl) sees Berlin's Dark Pop hit-machine Blutengel delivering a gripping ode to transience that is explicitly hearkening back to the dark side of Electro that dominated their early releases, thus providing their long-time fans with an extra-special treat.
Riding on a wave of powerful electronic beats, dark and slightly distorted vocals and the exquisite fusion of club sounds, a sinister atmosphere and an anthemic melody, the band of charismatic singer and musician Chris Pohl pays tribute to its own roots with a massive floor filler that reinvokes the feeling of the early days with a modernized reinvention. Serving as an appetizer for the upcoming new Blutengel-album "Omen" (scheduled for release in February 2015), the new single is 100% classic Blutengel-club-fare, but graced by the fine production standards that we have come to expect from the band in recent years.
A seamless fusion of the past and the present, "Asche zu Asche" is the ideal release to kick off the celebrations for the seminal group's 15th anniversary. With the emotional and melodic "Insensitive World", the group has provided a killer b-side exclusive to this release and the title track will be included in a single-edit plus 2 searing bass-heavy remixes. This spectacular homage to the group's early days will not only appeal to diehard Blutengel-fans but is also a perfect introduction to the dark side if club culture for the uninitiated. Dance with your darkness - with Blutengel!
