My uncle has Parkinson’s, and if it wasn’t for the Michael J. Fox foundation, the medication that he is on would have cost him $1000.00 a month, but he gets it for free. Mike is an amazing person with a kind heart and soul. I wish I could thank him in person for all that he has done to help others with this disease to be able to afford the medications that they need. My heart still goes out to him, for this disease is not a walk in the park.

It is hard to find the words to describe what an amazing human being Michael J. Fox is. He is a credit to his family, to acting, and to the world. He goes beyond a humanitarian, and is a credit to humanity. I watched him all my life, have witnessed him struggle with Parkinson's and his amazing accomplishments. In this time in our history he is inspiring to us all. Whoever watches over him, please keep him here!!

As someone who has struggled with Parkinson's disease for over 20 years thanks so much, Michael, you are a true humanitarian

I absolutely love this, I’m an 80s kid, Michael J Fox is and always will be one of my heroes. Shame Variety cut it off at the end, would like to see the whole thing. I love Woody too, such a lovely friendship. ❤

This man IS my childhood, In 1985 when back to the future hit the ONE theatre in our little town some friends and I got together to keep that movie in the theatre. As long as people kept going the theatre would keep the movie playing. I saw that movie 36 times that summer and I don't regret a single minute.

80s kid, and MJF has always been, and remains, a legend to me. The guy has a better personality while fighting Parkinsons' than most fully healthy people.

Ah man it's tough seeing him like this. Michael J. Fox was an idol of mine as a kid with the Back to the Future movies and he was fantastic in my favorite sitcom of all time Spin City. Amazing job he's done for the research in Parkinson's. Well done, Michael

Ah the way his son looks at his father with so much pride and love…❤

This speech is all over the place, but I can tell that Woody loves his friend. Some lovely words of tribute in there. Well deserved honor for MJF.

That's how you know it's from the heart.

As an 80s kid who understands what '80s famous' means, I want to thank Michael J Fox for the wonderful memories of his work and the work of his great collaborators, like Robert Zemeckis. Over here in Ireland the 80s was a tough enough time for working people and those who couldn't find work, but the light and fun that MJF brought into our homes every week on Family Ties and onto the big screen on a Saturday afternoon, gave such great joy and hope. He will live forever.

He still has the comedy timing. He was brilliant in family ties.

Woody in Cheers was next level funny. But Michael truly shone brightly in the 80s and tonight. Can't believe the bravery and strength of this man all these years. God keep him.❤

Love Michael J Fox and even if it's still so hard to see him shaking, he still has such a great wit and humor about him. His family is beautiful. What he's done with his Parkinson's diagnosis and the foundation, are great. And of course, he's a fellow Canadian and we just don't give in or give up. Cheers to you Michael, love you. Keep the fight going. (From Sandi)

Bless you, Michael. Thank you for your work which will last for generations. Well deserved honor.

Woody is a natural. You cannot not love him. An amazing actor with an amazing heart. Wonderful speech for Michael J. Fox. Micheal had tattooed 3 good generations in their brains. Kids watched his movies like old people watched his movies. Both are great men. ❤❤❤

Mr. Harrelson, you're as good at this speech as you can be. Very touching speech. And of course, Mr. Fox is an amazing person. With love and respect from Ukraine.

I was a young newlywed when MJF started on Family Ties. Hubby and I were AMAAAAZED at his genius in that show. We still are. He’s a beautiful soul and the world is so much better because of him. 💝 And the fact that he’s Canadian….even better. ;)

Sorry Variety cut off his speech but loved what I saw and heard. Much respect to the man I enjoyed watching over the years, from my favorite TV show to some good movies. Woody did an a wonderful speech.

I love that we are acknowledging and showing MJF some love while he still with us. He deserves every bit of it for everything he does.

The word hero is thrown around far too easily these days and in many ways has become cheapened. This man is a shining example of what a hero actually is…

I had the biggest crush on Michael J. Fox growing up. And I think I still do. 😊The soul energy always transcends the physical body. He is Amazing.

MJF has always been a kind man and brought much joy to many in his movies. I met(sat next to ) him at a Dire Straights concert and he was very gracious. I worked with Woody on Cheers long time ago , it was a great gig.

Congratulations Mike. You make all Canadians very proud.

hurts to see him like this but he's a damn champion for fighting thru it!

I’m so proud Michael is from my country and hometown! To see how progressive this disease is it breaks my heart Michael has to go through this. He is an amazing soul. I admire his strength courage and his sense of humour and we can all learn humility from him. ❤️ from 🇨🇦 Vancouver

We haven't invented words that describe how wonderful Michael is!!! Yet... let's keep trying!❤️

I cannot believe it was cut short in this video. I adore both Woody Harrelson and Michael J Fox and was intently listening to Michael's speech.... and it was CUT OFF?! Glad I got to see as much of it as I did though.

I'm glad he was recognized. His actions, adlib and even risking his safety brought many laughter and helped people imagine. I'm certain he has inspired others and all of us need to push for a cure. Parkinson's always goes after the best we have.

I think this will go down as one of the greatest award speeches of all time.

Woody you haven't changed one bit since we were in high school, and the fact that you were honoring one of the great actors and people ever Michael J Fox was great. thanks i laughed and cried so much it was great.

I have met Michael J Fox a couple of times now and he is truly one of the most amazing brave humble man I have ever met. He is not defined by his disability MS is no joke it's horrible. Michael has a great heart.

This was incredible. WHY CUT IT OFF EARLY, @VARIETY???

This has to one the best speeches that I have ever witnessed. What strength and courage for him to do this.but it was his actin career that shaped him for this day..still has his sense of humor. Congratulations to his wife and family for their full support. The award is a small acclimation to he is as an actor ,it is humanity that will caring on his legacy for future generations. Thank you MJF, for all that you have given us.May God bless.

Michael has been through a lot since his diagnosis of parkinson's he is one my favorite stars from the eighties era. Good luck Michael and congratulations.

This was awesome! I grew up on Family Ties, rolodex's and Barbara Walters not too shabby! Loved Woody's intro...great storytelling.

God bless you Michael... I love this guy and he's been amazing through this traumatic phase of his life 🤗👼🏼💞👼🏼 God bless your family too.

Dude is like Brendan Fraser, people like him cause he's real, he's being sincere to who he is even though it's hollywood, and he played that sincerity in an iconic role.
