Monday, June 4, 2001 Michael J. Fox hints at 'Spin City' return By JAM! TV Almost exactly one year after the hit sitcom "Spin City" to battle Parkinson's disease, Michael J. Fox has dropped a very big hint that he will return to the series for a special guest appearance this fall. Alluding to the season finale of the show -- in which the new deputy mayor, played by Charlie Sheen, shows up at the apartment of Heather Locklear's character to profess his love, only to find she already has company -- Fox told the syndicated TV show "Access Hollywood", "Boy, I'm saying more than I really should, but if anybody saw the final episode, when he walks into her apartment, you don't see what he sees there, so ...'' As for Fox's ongoing struggle with Parkinson's, Reuters quoted him telling "Access Hollywood" that he has his good days and bad days. "Sometimes I feel great, but I don't look great. Sometimes I look great, but don't feel great. I mean, I have this condition. There's no getting around that,'' he said. Fox, who turns 40 on Saturday, continues to work. He is the lead voice in "Atlantis The Lost Empire", the upcoming animated feature from Disney. He will also reprise his work as the title character in the hit movie "Stuart Little" for an in-progress sequel. However, much of his time is now devoted to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research. On his official website (http://www.michaeljfox.com), he states that he "whole-heartedly believes that if there is a concentrated effort from the Parkinson's community, our elected representatives in Washington, and (most importantly) the general public, researchers can pinpoint Parkinson's cause and cure by 2010". Last week, Fox and his wife, actress Tracy Pollan, announced that they were expecting their fourth child. The couple married in 1988. http://www.canoe.ca/Television/jun4_fox-can.html ********** ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
