TV ACADEMY HALL OF FAME NEWS

Here are the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences new inductees for the Academy’s Hall of Fame

Mary-Ellis Bunim and Jonathan Murray (producers of 'The Real World' - BOOO!)

Michael Eisner, former head of Disney

Don Francisco, host of the Hispanic game show 'Sabado Gigante'

Sherman Helmsley, star of 'The Jeffersons' and 'Amen'

Bill Klages, lighting designer

Chuck Lorre, creative power behind 'Dharma & Greg', 'Cybill', 'Roseanne', and 'Two And A Half Men'

The late Vivian Vance and William Frawley, without whom 'I Love Lucy' would have had no shock absorbers for Lucy's manic ways........

This will be the 21st annual induction ceremony and it will be held March 1st at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

It's really nice to see someone on the technical side like Mr. Klages be honored for his work like this. But I also noticed there isn't a single script-writer in the batch.......

BCnU!
