Wonder if this means the BSG reboot he was working on won't happen now?

A lot of recent projects he was involved in never got out of development hell. He was working on a Knight Rider movie a few years back, but then NBC brought out that rather weak 2008 series and it killed off any interest in it.

I think at one point he was trying to even bring Manimal back

RIP Glen Larson. Cancer effects nearly all of us in some way. My Mom loved the Six Million Dollar Man. Prayers to his family.

Knight Rider is my favorite TV series. This is really sad but the awesome shows he left behind have almost all stood the test of time and likely will continue to do so.

R.I.P! So very sad

The speed-up version only on Knight Rider.

The slow down version seen on The Fall Guy.
