Less than two weeks since our first look at NBC's "The Michael J. Fox Show," our social networks are buzzing in anticipation of seeing Michael's irreverent wit applied to a subject as serious as living with Parkinson's. Check out some responses below:
On Facebook:
Wendi Cherry: What a great testament to keep on moving and not let anything get in the way of what one loves to do! I have Parkinson’s too and always look for a good laugh!!!
Arlene Langer: We have always approached my husband's Parkinson’s with humor, it is the best medicine. And we are so looking forward to this show! No one can take a serious subject and make it funny, educational better than Michael J. Fox!
Lynn Fisher Clark: Cannot wait till this comes out...Looks like it will be a funny but educating show. A true eye-opener for those who don’t understand Parkinson’s. My husband and I can relate and will enjoy the humor. Thank you & a thumbs up Michael J. Fox for taking this on.
