James Garner Hospitalized
Image and video hosting by TinyPic


James Garner's publicist says the veteran TV and film star has been hospitalized in Los Angeles after suffering a minor stroke at his home last week.

Publicist Jennifer Allen said Tuesday that the star of "Maverick" and "The Rockford Files" was hospitalized Friday. Allen says Garner is doing well and will be going home soon.

Garner, who turned 80 last month, rose to prominence in the 1950s as "Maverick," a wry riverboat gambler who, unlike his TV contemporaries, would often run rather than fight.

He's better known to younger audiences for playing Katey Sagal's father in the sitcom "8 Simple Rules ... For Dating My Teenage Daughter."

The whole article is sad, I'm feeling for him and his family and then I get to the last sentence and think... uh, no.

Try... The Notebook, you retards.

Plus, My Fellow Americans is like... one of the greatest, most underrated buddy comedies ever.

There's an old movie he did with Doris Day called 'Move Over Darling' that's just wonderful. It's so 1960s cute. And he was also fabulous in Divine Secrets of the YaYa Sisterhood.

I like him a lot, but I've only seen him in 8 Simple Rules and The Notebook. He was hilarious in 8 Simple Rules. I loved the part when he threw a shoe at a bug on the television and Rory said he missed and he said "I put the fear of God in him." Haha!

I hope he gets better!

I thought that was Johnny Cash at first. Either way, I hope he gets better. Watching someone suffer after having a stroke is awful :(

:( I love the fact that he married his wife a 2 weeks after he met her and they've been married since 1956. I guess when you know, you just know.
