13. My longest running TV series was "Quincy M.E." I helped write one episode that Jack Klugman refused to act in as he felt it was out of character.

Alan Sorkin

I actually don't know much about him but I think he fits the bill for most of these clues..

Dean somebody. I forget his last name! I think he produced Matlock too.

Not Alan nor dean.

14. I had a few flops and one-season only minor successes. Most of my shows have run two years or more. Magnum P.I. was on of my longer running shows that I produced.

15. My characters mostly had good fighting skills. Micheal Knight (Knight Rider) was a highly trained war vetran. B.J. McKay (B.J. and the Bear) had been P.O.W. Johnny Domino (Nightman) was a natural martial artist.

Kind of out of clues other than listing shows by name. If no one gets it, I'll just give the name.

I'm tapped out.

Oh well... Someone else take the next one.

This one was TV producer mogul Glen Larson. His name appears at the end of every show he produced on a large graphic.

Hey Cliff, what happened to: "I'll try to be more mainstream next time"? LOL.

1. My father was a teacher, my mother a hairdresser.

2. I am, among other things, an actor and a film producer.

3. I gained press notoriety for my romantic involvements.

I thought that was Mainstream... lol.

Mickey Rooney?

George Clooney

4. I fathered eight children with five women.

William Marsten

5. When I started a band, we played for no money and had to borrow equipment.

Mic Jagger

#5 sounds like me.

Haha! Me too, Karnak.

You got it, Cliff … Sir Michael Philip Jagger. If you hadn’t nailed it now (although I don’t know how), my follow-up questions would have made it progressively easier to guess:

6. We eventually scored thirteen number one hits.

7. My love of rhythm and blues began with Little Richard.

8. As unlikely as it seems, I studied economics before forming a band.

9. Our first international hit established us a defiant troublemakers.

10. After our first drug arrest, we faced legal battles for the next decade.

11. One of our band members drowned under mysterious circumstances.

If nobody gets this one before I hit the tenth clue, I'll eat my hat. That is easy to say since in general, I don't wear hats. But this one you should get!

1. I was born in 1950 In New Haven, Connecticut.
2. I studied ballet and tap dancing as a child. I may have learned rhythm from this, but little else. I never loved dancing.
3. In my early teens, we moved to Los Angeles.

4. In high school, I joined the marching band to avoid gym class. I was given the glockenspiel to play, and I did not like the instrument.

5. I hated the glockenspiel, but I got a band mate to teach me how to play drums. I liked the drums much better.

6. I don't know if we really had the money, but I convinced my parents to buy me a very expensive drum kit (Same type Ringo used) and I more or less taught myself to be a drummer.
