I got sucked into watching some two-hour special about Candy Spelling selling the "manor." (And yes, it was called "Selling Spelling." Clever.) First of all, the mansion was ginormous - three gift-wrapping rooms, doll rooms, a screening room, gym, bowling alley, four two-car garages, tennis court, pool, etc. etc. Asking price: $150 million. It sold for $85 million to some 20-something heiress who, to Candy's dismay, immediately painted the inside black. Classy!
So the whole show is Candy categorizing her things, selling the dolls at an auction (which raked in $750,000! WTF!), and then "downsizing" into a penthouse condo which she was completely redoing - even picking out the damn marble for the countertops. Not at ALL a waste of two hours of my time.
But my favorite part came when she was walking her dog in the park, visiting with a former neighbor. And what did the millionairess have on? A Beverly Hills, 90210 sweatshirt. Complete with the logo above. FANTASTIC. Donna and David would be proud.
