Jim Carlson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jim Carlson (August 29, 1932 - August 25, 2007) was an American film and television writer. He had been involved in such shows as Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In, Emergency!, CHiPs and Battlestar Galactica, and an ABC special based on The Mouse and the Motorcycle. In 1988, he co-wrote the script for Pound Puppies and the Legend of Big Paw and X-men's episode Enter Magneto along with Terrence McDonnell. Update: Jim Carlson passed on at the age of 74, just a few days shy of his 75th birthday. He is survived by his three children, six grand children and three great grandkids. When asked how he wanted to be remembered, he said, "The song that comes to mind is Make 'Em Laugh"... and that he did. We bid aloha to a screenwriter who loved what he did, helped craft the television and comedy industry in its infancy, and who made countless people laugh.
