From an episode of Mythbusters - Kari Byron is on crutches for some reason but there's no explanation why.

8/12/06

From the best show on television, Veronica Mars - Episode "Driver Ed" (2x02). Not much to tell here really. Just a girl on crutches for a brief scene in the episode. But see Veronica star Kristen Bell was in a rest brace in an episode of Everwood. See those pix here, but I will updating the dvd caps sometime in the future.

8/12/06

From the Showtime program Family Business, the main person (Seymore Butts) goes to his high school reunion and there's a scene with a woman on crutches, no explanation though. (Season 1)

From the movie .com for Murder - Nastassja Kinski is in a camwalker, wheelchair, and at the end, on crutches.

7/24/06

From the NBC show Treasure Hunters: Click on each of the three pix below to read a description of what happened.

7/24/06

From the FOX show The War at Home, character Hillary (Kaylee DeFer) lies to her parents about going on a ski trip, but has to confess when they are forced to pick her up in the emergency. This episode was promising, but was a little disappointing.

7/24/06

From Disney Channel's Life with Derek: in order to catch the tv remote her brother throws to her, Derek's sister falls and sprains her ankle. From the episode "Miss Misery".

9/11/05

From the A&E show Inked, episode " Florida Dreamin'" (1x08), first aired 8/31/2005

Not much here, just a brief scene of this woman on crutches, no leg/foot shots. I don't really understand why my on screen channel guide mentioned "and an artist breaks her leg" when the episode never even addressed the issue, and only showed this brief scene (it is REALLY brief). Oh well, maybe there will be more of her in future episodes.

5/14/05

From the ABC Special, Petra Nemcova had her hip shattered by the Tsunami in Thailand, not many shots of her on crutches though.

10/26/01 Shots from the show 7th Heaven. Jessica Biel is the actress. Her character hurt her knee playing basketball.

4/6/04 From a short clip they showed on Howard Stern of Angie Everheart on crutches. She tore ligaments in her foot preparing for the Lingerie Bowl. Did anyone order this on Super Bowl day?

2/14/03 Pix from the recent episode of Real World/Road Rules Challenge: Battle of the Sexes. Tanya sprained her knee.

3/13/04 Pix from a special about the Women's World Cup Soccer team. Brandi Chastain breaks her foot and wears a camwalker and is on crutches. Sadly Team USA needed her and lost in the World Cup.

4/26/01 Barrett Christy ESPN's action sports female snowboarder of the year. Not sure how she ended up in the camwalker.

2/14/01 From the movie Bring It On, Bianca Kajlich plays a cheerleader who falls off a pyramid and "breaks her leg". She's seen in the out-takes at the end of the movie. Some funny shots of her dancing with the crutches to the song "Mickey." Kirsten Dunst (blonde) and Eliza Dushku are seen in the foreground of the pix. (DVD captures)

4/10/01 From Here on Earth, Leelee Sobieski's character has bone cancer. She hurts her knee a little over an hour into the movie. This movie isn't very good but some nice shots of her in the knee brace. Couldn't she be Helen Hunt's daughter? This airs on HBO all through this month, and probably next month.

1/31/01 Stills from two episodes of ER. The first set is from this season. Second set is from last season.

10/19/99 Snaps from the show Snoops: Gina Gershon's character was stabbed in the leg while catching a serial killer. Only crutches, but pretty cool (sorry about the quality of the snap).

8/12/00 The pix are of a girl who sprained her ankle. She was the Tiny Tim type character in the Christmas episode.

4/13/99 By request here are some pictures of Anna Chlumsky (My Girl) from the television movie A Child's Wish. No casat pictures, but a good upper body crutch shot. Her character (she's 17 by the way) gets bone cancer. They find out because she breaks some bones by just kicking the soccer ball. If anyone has more info on this movie feel free to email. I remember a similar story line on ER once.

Debra Winger from the movie Shadowlands. She plays C.S. Lewis's wife and has bone cancer, very old school crutches (1950's)
