Tony Scott’s TV legacy included two hit series and wide variety

Tony Scott, who died on Sunday, was primarily known as a feature director, with such films as “Top Gun,” “Crimson Tide” and “True Romance” standing out on his lengthy resume. But along with his brother, Ridley, Tony was also a prolific force in TV.

Starting in 1997, with a little-seen anthology series based on his debut feature, “The Hunger,” Scott served as executive producer on a wide range of projects, including two hit CBS series,”Numb3rs” and”The Good Wife.”
