Tori Spelling might be waist-deep into her own motherhood, but she's still hurling some nastiness her mom's way. In her new memoir, Stori Telling, Spelling claims that her mom's relationship with a male family friend led to an untimely death for her ill father, producer Aaron Spelling.According to the New York Daily News, Spelling, who is estranged from her mom, Candy, says, "I don't think my father had to die so soon. [Candy's] relationship with Mark was disturbing, and I thought it had taken a toll on my father when his health was in jeopardy."Spelling attacks her mother's approach not only to marriage but to motherhood, as well: "I wrote an e-mail [to Candy] saying... you should never have been the wife to a man so generous and loving," Spelling writes. "You never deserved him. You never deserved to have children like me and Randy. The greatest lesson you taught me is how not to be a mother and a wife."Harsh words, especially after all these years.

Dont laugh, but in the summer of 1981, I lived for three things: the birth of MTV, the Royal wedding and the identity of the bitch in the big hat who stormed Blakes murder trial at the end of Dynastys first season.As you can probably tell, I wasnt a normal kid.

Even if this one did make me wait until November for the new season to begin.Alexis Morell Carrington Colby Dexter Rowan, I love you.And not in the being her for Halloween way. More like, I love you for being the first character to show me how t...

Question: I was just wondering if you have any reaction to the shocking, sad and truly tragic death of Aaron Spelling, who I believe to be one of the most important figures in pop culture in the last 60 years. How do you think this will affect the future of television?
Answer: For my tribute to Aaron Spelling, check out my recent Dispatch. His pop-culture legacy is tremendous, to be sure, but I'm not sure how his passing affects TV. He'd already pretty much slowed down, though he never truly retired. I just hope there are others out there with his indefatigable love of TV. We can never have too many guilty pleasures, and that's where Spelling was truly a master of his craft. He will be missed, there's no doubt ...
