Dear Darius, thanks for writing about Reza Badiyi.
by Anahid Hojjati on Tue Apr 06, 2010 04:25 AM PDTDarius jan, thanks for writing about this great Iranian-American. Many of us grew up watching shows directed by him such as "Six Million Dollar Man". Every time I read a list of his works, I am amazed of how many TV shows Reza Badiyi has been involved with. No wonder that in your blog, you call him:"One of the most prolific directors in American TV history".
