Dick Clark; former host of "American Bandstand", various incarnations of "Pyramid" during the 70s to 80s, "TV's Bloopers and Practical Jokes", and his "New Year's Rockin' Eve" specials; has died overnight from a massive heart attack. He was 82.
To pay tribute to his death, here is a good variety of his works. Enjoy!: Kicking it off are the very first couple episodes of his 1997 short-lived ABC Family (formerly The Family Channel) game show, "It Takes Two". Premiere Episode (3/10/1997): Part One Part Two Part Three Final Part Second Episode (3/11/1997): Part One Part Two Final Part
Last but not least, the premiere episode of another short-lived game show of his from 1990-1991, "The Challengers" in its entirety: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmFWuobF-i8
He'll sadly be missed.
Dick Clark (1929-2012)

Tragic loss. I know many of the greats will soon pass, like Adny Griffith, Jack Nicholson, Morgan Freeman, etc... but it'll still be a shocker.

Growing up in New Zealand, the only thing I remember him for, was the popular 80s T.V show "TV's Bloopers & Practical Jokes" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WB3aK2D3jE
