"Desperate Housewives" Gale Harold Involved in Motorcycle Crash

MSNBC is reporting that Gale Harold was in a motorcycle accident on Wednesday and in critical condition awaiting tests at USC Medical Center. It does appear that he is going to be OK though. Here is an exceprt from the article:

Publicist Nancy Seltzer said Wednesday that Harold fractured his shoulder, and “Housewives” creator and executive producer Marc Cherry said he apparently has swelling on the brain but is expected to recover.

“We’re hearing he’s going to be fine, but he’s going to be recovering for a couple of weeks,” Cherry said.

The article goes on to say:

Harold plays Jackson, the boyfriend of Teri Hatcher’s character Susan Mayer on the ABC show. The character plays a pivotal role in the fifth season’s eighth episode, a November sweeps installment which finds several Wisteria Lane residents trapped inside a nightclub fire.

Cherry said Harold had been filming scenes all week for the episode and had been scheduled to be on set Tuesday. He said they would await the actor’s prognosis before deciding how to proceed, but that at least some changes would have to be made.

“We know we’re going to rewrite one scene,” he said.

I am a HUGE Gale Harold fan and hope he is able to recover quickly...and get back on TV!
