John Henry Falsey Jr. (November 6, 1951 – January 3, 2019) was an American television writer, director and producer.

He did return briefly to the industry in 1999, serving as a consulting producer for the majority of season 1 of Providence (which was created by Masius.)
It was reported Falsey had a "decades-long battle with alcoholism, during which he and Brand had no contact for almost 20 years.
