Of interest to Hercules: The Legendary Journeys fans: Kevin Sorbo reveals he had three strokes during the filming of Hercules.
I'm sort of amused by this quote: "Hercules was the most-watched television show at the time, and Sorbo's production studio carefully concealed the severity of his condition by bringing on guest stars and rewriting scripts to work around the actor's limitations." Uh, no they didn't. It's kind of obvious when the star of your show isn't in an entire season of it. And if they're calling "Porkules" clever, I beg to differ.
It was, however, a mystery as to exactly what had happened to him, though. A fan at a convention had told me that he had almost died and hinted at the specifics, but in a very cloak and dagger sort of way. So it's interesting to hear about the specifics. And scary.
