      Despite medical experts opinions i dont think anyone ever fully recovers from a stroke. I had one in 95 and my vision is still not as good as it was before it hit me.

        I think it was more like a footjob than a stroke...

        Anyways, long live Dick, and Happy New Year's East Coast!!!

            That was as sad as watching the Pope trying to talk the week before he died.

            I guess when you are a 'public' figure it's hard to just give up and fade away.

              ABC should be sued for exploiting handicapped people. there is no way that he should have been put through that like a trained chimp.

              poor dick. he should have been resting and no where near times square.

              poor guy. i am sad for him.

                  Hes the one who wants to do it. You think anyone tells Dick Clark what to do? he's a billionaire and he's in charge.

                    well, now he's retarded basically. he will never come back from the damage that the stroke did. poor dick, i wish him the best on the road to recovery.

                    sometimes people need to be taken out of the spotlight.

                    his agents and the people who keep the money coming in are behind this. i know showbiz.

                    what a debacle. so sad to watch that. what a buzz kill.

                          I'm not sure if he had a stroke or not. I know certain drugs for cancer tend to swell your tongue pretty bad and that was my first guess for him.

                          Poor guy -- either way I really don't want Ryan Seacrest to be the next Dick.

                            Man when I had mine I had to be babysitted almost 24.7 for months. And mine was a "mild" stroke. I cant imagine his doctors letting hom go thru that. He must have one hell of a will to go on to do that. Wanna bet thats his last public appearance tho?

                              He had a stroke over a year ago. That's why Regis did the New years bash last year. I say more power to him for wanting to live his life and do what he loves to do, and that's entertain. (although he was pretty fucked up by it)

                                just because he had a stroke doesnt make him retarded.. you lose alot of your moter skills, you can still think mostly for yourself but just cant talk/walk/eat/shit

                                  Dick needs to take some lessons from Carson. Get the fuck out of the spotlight, relax and enjoy what little you have left of your life, then die.

                                  Trying to stay in the public eye in that state is nothing short of embarassing.

                                      That is quite possibly the dumbest thing I've ever read on here.

                                      Having a stroke doesn't mean you're "retarded". While you can have cognitive deficits with a stroke, he seemed fine mentally. He has some motor skills problems, but it looked like that was it.

                                      I thought it was great to see him back. You sound a bit ridiculous.

                                        I was thinking the same thing ... but his countdown has been declining in ratings over the last few years and i bet his staff and himself knew people would tune in to see that .. ...his speech was the worsted ....

                                          I got to meet Dick Clark once, actually got to go up to his office and all that.

                                          This was 6-7 years ago now and he seemed to be in rough shape then.

                                          I didn't see him last night, but saw some footage from last week and couldn't believe he was planning to be there last night.

                                          Spend you some brain.

                                            I was in mid-fuck as the countdown was going on and his voice totally killed it. We just stopped and sat up and said "oh man, what the hell? Poor Dick."

                                              After his stroke, he said he had to learn to 'walk and talk' again.

                                              Part of the learning process is setting goals for yourself. Undoubtedly, his goal was to be at this show for 2006.

                                              Its his damn show, if that one goal helped him than let the let the old-timer make a final appearance. imho

                                              I seriously doubt you'll see him again.

                                                It was sad. I only heard about one sentence. I asked them to put on something else where I was.

                                                  Having a stroke doesn't mean you're "retarded". While you can have cognitive deficits with a stroke, he seemed fine mentally. He has some motor skills problems, but it looked like that was it.

                                                  I thought it was great to see him back. You sound a bit ridiculous.

                                                  figue of speech. don't have a baby about it. happy new year.

                                                      Depressing, really. This was the man that "never aged" and always looked full of energy.

                                                      Truly so sad. I wish him the best though.

                                                        poor dick. he should have been resting and no where near times square.

                                                        my understanding is that ABC was giving dick the full decision as to whether he would show up. Remember that Clark is passionate about his shows and name - he wanted to be there and would have fought if ABC said no. I am sure that Dick knew this would be one of the few years left he could do it - and rather than see him as handicap I see him as a man of strength who overcame his affliction to rise up once more to be with his 'friends'

                                                                I was wondering the same thing. I have not seen the guy in years, but last night he looked fucked up.

                                                                Martina and Warren thought he was drunk, but I was leaning towards a recent stroke.

                                                                        thats what i heard.

                                                                        i dont think it looks good to go out like that. once that stuff goes on film, you cant take it back. it was almost as bad as watching ozzy on t.v. these past years. myabe he isn't capable of making those decisions. if he did choose to be there, is it hurting or helping him? it really bummed me out or i wouldn't have said anything here. i originally blamed it on his agents. i don't see it as a positive that he chose to go on t.v. for this. the poor guy should be resting. oh well, i guess its none of my business. i wont watch that next year if i choose to stay home again.

I say more power to him for wanting to live his life and do what he loves to do, and that's entertain. (although he was pretty fucked up by it)
