The Michael J. Fox Show (Season 1)

The Michael J. Fox Show (2013) is an NBC sitcom you can watch online on iFILM, built around the real story of its star. Michael J. Fox, diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 1991, plays Mike Henry — a New York TV anchor who stepped back from his career to manage his health and is now being pulled back to the desk.

Five years at home: the family adjusted, the kids grew up, the routine calcified. Now Mike's restless, his wife (Betsy Brandt) is done with having him underfoot all day, and his old producer Harris (Wendell Pierce) has been quietly waiting. The series ran one season on NBC, 22 episodes. What makes it work is the tone — Parkinson's is just part of Mike's day, folded into office politics and parenting without melodrama or motivational speeches. Watch all episodes of The Michael J.
