Last month, Candy Spelling sent her daughter a really snotty, bitchy open letter through TMZ. Candy’s complaints were mostly of the woe-is-me, my-daughter-sucks variety, but Candy did go off on a bitchy tangent about how Tori is “middle-aged” and insinuated that Tori’s reality show is anything but fresh and updated. Candy’s words were: “My husband taught me that the plots have to be fresh and updated. The same old whining gets tired after a while. Enough complaining about what may or may not have happened during first grade or YMCA camp, or what vegetable you were forced to endure, especially when you are privileged enough to be on TV and get paid for it. For all the reality show personalities, please remember that real life doesn’t get edited to make things better or worse or get better ratings. You’re responsible for what you do. Life isn’t just a show. And your families can’t just be props. Make your own season finale without creating conflicts you will regret later.”

So Candy doesn’t think much of Tori’s reality show, or reality shows in general. Surprise, surprise – Candy has a new television show in the works. But she wants us to know it will not be “unscripted”. Candy snots: “I wouldn’t do reality.” How apropos, in so many ways. So what exactly is the concept then? Just a scripted show about a gift-wrapping room?

In an exclusive interview Candy Spelling revealed to RadarOnline.com that she is going to have her very own television show. Even though the mother daughter duo have been famously estranged lately, Tori Spelling told us that her mom having her own show “would be great.”

As the wife of television mogul Aaron Spelling, Candy is no stranger to hit shows. At the I’m Every Woman non-profit organization book signing on Saturday Candy talked about her possible foray into TV, saying “Yes, there is,” going to be a show. But Candy is not following in her daughter Tori’s footsteps – her show will be scripted. “I wouldn’t do a reality show,” the author of Stories from Candyland said.

Later Saturday night at the Much Love Animal Rescue & Secure-A-Pets Summer fundraiser, Bow Wow Wow of Howlywood, Tori was suprised by the news that her mom was going to have her own show but was supportive, saying “I wish her the best.” Maybe a reconciliation between the two women isn’t too far off?

I’m going to admit something – I watch Tori and Dean’s reality show. Not religiously or anything, but if there’s a marathon on, I’ll get into it. Tori comes across as a princess trying not be a princess. Dean comes across a devoted husband and father. It’s actually a really cute show, and Tori often cracks me up. I find her naturally funny, without a script. I can’t even imagine how supremely boring Candy’s “scripted” show is going to be.
