NEW YORK (AP) - Stephen J. Cannell, the prolific writer-producer of dozens of TV series that included "The Rockford Files" and "The A-Team," has died at age 69.
Cannell passed away at his home in Pasadena, Calif., on Thursday night from complications associated with melanoma, his publicist said on Friday.
Creator of one of my favorite shows, "Wiseguy". Of course his other credits stand out more - especially "Magnum P.I> and The A team".

Greg Geraldo, Tony Curtis, and now Stephen Cannell.
Always in threes.
I've always like his work. It was cool to see him on Castle as himself during their poker games. And he had a great credit at the end of all his shows. Him whipping a paper out of his typewriter and that paper turns into his credit.

Which 3 is George Blanda part of?
What happens if a celebrity dies tomorrow? Also- Joe Mantell died on the 30th. Does he count in this three or another three?

Donald P. Bellisario and Glen Larson created Magnum.
My bad.
I saw a list of five earlier today. The reason we get deaths in threes is that's were we stop counting, then start over. No magic involved.
