Going back to Mr Show on HBO. And I just recently found out he created the Matt Foley character for Chris Farley when they were both at Second City before going to SNL.

David Cross, who co-created and co-starred in “Mr. Show With Bob and David” with Odenkirk in the 1990s, wrote, “I will share what I know when I can but Bob is one of the strongest people I know both physically and mentally. He WILL get through this.
No updates and now many hours later. So it's certainly not a minor thing. Possibilities start to dwindle the longer it goes. Heart attack, stroke, etc come to mind.
I read someone who said with a public figure they usually wait until the situation is stable before making any announcement. So all that sounds pretty worrying.
via Instagram. Don't want to read too much into it, but it sure doesn't sound good.
Quote:
8:14 AM PT -- 7/28 "Breaking Bad" star Bryan Cranston is asking fans to send good thoughts and prayers Bob's way, saying, "Today I woke up to news that has made me anxious all morning. My friend, Bob Odenkirk collapsed last night on the set of Better Call Saul."
He continues, "He is in the hospital in Albuquerque and receiving the medical attention he needs but his condition is not known to the public as yet. Please take a moment in your day today to think about him and send positive thoughts and prayers his way, thank you."
Yeah, the comments from Cross and Cranston make it sound like
Is pretty massive. Probably bigger than I bet most would have guessed. I know I caught myself off guard with how worried I was when I heard the news. I'm glad he sounds like he'll be alright to see all that.

So happy that it seems to be under control. Amazing talent and career that's really only peaking now. As you said, he must be very touched to hear the outpouring of concern. Really a guy that's pretty hard to dislike.
funny, such small parts then and now he's blown up into a big star (seems like late in his career too that he found fame).
He's such a talent

I hope he's alright.

All the best for a great and easy recovery.
Or a massive heart attack.
Such a shame - he's so talented.
I just feel like if this was a sudden on-set thing (heart attack, stroke, heat exhaustion, etc.), we'd know the story by now.
