From Mark Steyn's Aaron Spelling obituary in the September *Atlantic* ([subscriber link](http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200609/aaron-spelling?ref=thedailyeudemon.com)):

> “Get rid of the little guy,” advised an NBC exec after the *Fantasy Island* pilot. Eventually Spelling did, but only after Hervé Villechaize demanded as much per episode as Ricardo Montalbán and hung on his trailer door a sign saying THE DOCTOR OF SEX.

By the way, Mark Steyn has quickly become one of my favorite writers. [I guess he's been around awhile](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark%5FSteyn?ref=thedailyeudemon.com), but I don't remember hearing his name until a few years ago. Funny, pithy, fact and anecdote-filled. Some of the best material today.
