According to IMDB he was diagnosised with Bell's Palsy in the fifth season of Angel.
And I found this quote about AH working on the Orpheous episode of Angel
It's a blast. I feel like it's a play day. I have to keep reminding myself that I'm at work. My girl is here! We're not getting to see much of each other. She has three jobs on her plate -- she's doing the next "American Pie" movie, she's doing "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (1997) and today on _"Angel" (1999/I)_. She's a busy woman, so it's a double delight. I keep looking at her, and inside I keep giggling, and I keep thinking to myself, 'I have to remember I'm in a scene. I can't just smile at my fiancée.' But really all I want to do is run over and give her a hug.
I just watched that episode the other day (I've been recording the TNT HD reruns) and you can see the sparkle between them.
I didn't know that about AD!
I hope he's okay. (I know nothing about Bell's Palsy.)
Fay - he was BRILLIANT as a stereotypical American tv news anchor. He did this AMAZING TV newsanchor voice that was about as different from his own way of speaking as Wes' voice is.
Oh, and I think that CBS puts the show up on their site. At least I hope so, because with my vcr acting out the way it is - this may be the only way I get to see it.
I googled and it looks like Bell's Palsy is something that you can recover from.
Oh man, I didn't realize HIMYM was starting last night! I still haven't seen the second season yet, though, so hopefully the network (CBS?) will put the episodes online so I can watch them after I catch up. Meanwhile, last night I finished
Ugly Betty
season 1, and HOLY SHIT! I was not expecting that! Poor Hilda and Justin! Man. *sniff* I was just really getting to like Santos, too. And ARGH to the Betty/Henry stuff! So frustrating! Possibly I am nursing a GIGANTIC crush on Henry, so I am not terribly objective about this storyline. And Daniel and Alexis! WTF?? Oh, show, you are so very true to your telenovela roots.
Meanwhile, last night I finished Ugly Betty season 1, and HOLY SHIT! I was not expecting that!
Right?!?!?!????
I'm so traumatized by Betty and Henry not getting together, that I can't even be properly upset about Santos.
Oh! And Amanda being Fay's daughter!!!! How much you wanna bet that her father is Old Man Meade (who I can only think of as Caleb from The O.C.)?
And Mom!Meade busting out of prison!
And Wilhemina trading back her wedding date so she could get Marc back from Gina Gershon (who just *rocks* the hell out of her role)!!!
Okay, it's possible I'm abusing exclamation points.
HIMYM's ratings were down a bit. Wah.
I don't remember! Is the Office premiere at 8 or 9 on Thursday???
I'm so traumatized by Betty and Henry not getting together, that I can't even be properly upset about Santos.
Seriously!! The tragedy! And do you think the baby is really Henry's or the dentist's? All I know is, Henry better show up again before long!
Oh! And Amanda being Fay's daughter!!!! How much you wanna bet that her father is Old Man Meade (who I can only think of as Caleb from The O.C.)?
Now *that* was a real shock! I bet you're right about Bradford Meade being her dad. I love Amanda, so I'd be happy if she got an expanded storyline this season. I felt so sorry for her when that fauxmo designer jerk treated her so callously, but I'm glad she had Marc there for her. He's one of my very favorite characters on the show.
And Wilhemina trading back her wedding date so she could get Marc back from Gina Gershon (who just *rocks* the hell out of her role)!!!
Ha, yeah, I love Gina Gershon as Fabia. Those lips! And I'm so glad Wilhelmina got Marc back. I mean, you knew it had to happen, but it was just really satisfying.
I am totally digging this show!
