'Desperate Housewives' actor injured in accident

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Gale Harold was in critical condition Wednesday after the "Desperate Housewives" actor crashed his motorcycle the day before, a hospital spokeswoman said.

Harold was awaiting further tests at USC Medical Center, spokeswoman Adelaida De La Cerda said. She gave no further details on his injuries.

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.

Selzer said no one else was injured, but did not provide further details on the Tuesday wreck, which was first reported by TMZ. The California Highway Patrol said it had no information about the accident.

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.]] (spoilered it just in case)

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.

Regarding that spoiler, that's a bit risky. [[given the horrible Station Nightclub Fire in RI that killed hundreds of people.]] Hope they do this in good taste. I know it's been a while but still.

Queer as Folk alum and Terri Hatcher's on-screen boyfriend in Desperate Housewives, Gale Harold remains in intensive care at Los Angeles County USC Medical Center.

But, thankfully, the latest is that his condition has improved.

The actor suffered brain swelling and a fractured shoulder following a nasty motorcycle accident on Tuesday.

He is expected to recover and will be transferred to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center as soon as there is space available.

Get well soon!

Good to hear he is improving.

If you mean his daughter Penny, that they inherited after her mother was killed in the supermarket shootout, she was sent to live with her grandparents after trying to frame Lynette for child endangerment.

Penny IS Tom and Lynett's daughter. The one that was sent away was Kayla.
