Hopefully not any jokes as his injuries were a little more substantial then Maxwells.

yeah, really scary stuff. Thank god he got away with what he did, would be a shame to lose hit to something so stupid.

His understudy needs to get ready to go on!

Best of luck to McKean! I hope he makes a quick recovery.

I was coming out of P C Richards with my new vacuum and saw a man being put in the ambulance, somebody said it was an actor.

Michael has never missed a performance his whole career, get back on the stage and get better soon.

That's terrible for him and his family. I just hope he does well recovering, show or no show.

Hope he heals well with no complications.
Enjoyed him in GV'sTBM this past season.

As soon as he can wear a walking cast, I can see him going back on. 1960's? His character could likely be a polio victim in a leg brace -- no further explanation needed.

Was just saying with a friend that he's the type to return in a cast and get right back to work. Here's to a speedy recovery!

Last time I saw him was in Our Town and got a chance to talk to him after.

Considering I use "St. Hubbins" on a movie board I frequent, this really sucks.

It's a totally terrible corner....I saw the scaffolding around Banana Republic down on the ground around 6....I thought that was the reason things were roped off. People run the light there all the time going across 86th....especially if they feel the M86 is turning too slowly.

Some good news: McKean's condition was upgraded to stable. Thank goodness! (Warning: Horrible photo in link.)
