I’ve always liked Minnie Driver, even more so now. I love speechless and think it’s an awesome show
as a multiply disabled woman, who is also in a power wheelchair & legally blind, Minnie you are awesome, Thanks for realizeing that we are human being s, also have you guys seen power wheelchair hockey?
we have it in Toronto Canada.
Love Minnie Driver and the show is so funny.
Wish they'd mentioned Zach Anner and all the incredible inroads he's made for people with CP.
Just found this ... going to look for Speechless. I ADORE Minnie ... think she is so interesting and fun and smart.
I love the show very much I miss it very much and I hope it comes back because I have a disability called spinel bifida and I use a wheelchair because of it and it makes me feel better about myself and others
Love this show very much I wish I could see all the actors in this TV show very much I love the show so much I wish I could have been there
As someone with a disability wanting to work in film/tv, I think Minnie means well but it really doesn’t bother me when an able bodied person plays disabled. We’re not represented/portrayed enough for us to have choices. Beggars can’t be choosers. When disability becomes more the norm, and people are more used to seeing us, then we can be picky and say ‘let’s get a disabled actor’. Furthermore, I think there’s a lot to be learned from an able bodied actor playing disabled. The able bodied actor can learn and educate others in a way the disabled actor can’t.
That is what we are trying to do is get people to see us for hew we are not what we have
Love Minnie, LOVE the show... but this interviewer sucks. She didn't even know Micah's name.
