Every lesbian in their 40's owes this guy a huge debt. He gave us all the giggle shows of the 70's that helped in our eventual coming out. (See the Oprah thread).

Regardless of what kind of shows he made, he was a TV genius. He created many of the trends that we take for granted.

He was a giant and he will be missed.

He only made two mistakes in his life, if you ask me; he gave us Tori and he trained IC.
Your body is not a temple, it's an amusement park. Enjoy the ride.
