He had a small stint on Curb Your Enthusiasm and it was hilarious. Not afraid to play off his disability. It's some great episodes and so good to see Michael again.

But thing is sadly Parkinson's is a degenerative disease meaning it gets worse over time. For him to be around this long is amazing thanks to modern medicine. I am just shocked that he was able to physically make to a Comic Con and the worst part is there will be a day when the disease has gotten so bad that he will be forced to live at home. I am just glad he was able to be with Christopher Lloyd.

That's reality. The disease is going to get worse each day and modern medicine has kept him alive this long so far.

Everybody understands that. No need to repeat it over and over. It almost comes across disrespectful to him (I know that’s not your intention).

The man is more than his disease. Let’s talk about the man.

He also did a few episodes of the good wife and was very good in those as well.

His character on the good wife was truly fantastic. He was meschievious and really good at what he did. He was also able to use his disability in the role in a way which didn't feel forced at all.

10/10 character.

Your comment implies this was recent but that episode was more than 10 years ago :-(

He came back for a brief appearance of curb back in season 9, which I think was in 2017.

Him shaking the soda was pretty classic.
