Eric McCormack on Living a Double Life Between 'Will & Grace' and 'Travelers'

Emmy winner Eric McCormack explained to Ellen how he feels like he lived a double life between playing macho special operative in "Travelers" and switching back to his iconic character in "Will & Grace."

[@MikhailKalashnikovMiG]

I'm actually surprised Travelers isn't a big deal considering that it's actually a really good TV series. Being a fan of Sci-fi, I'm just happy I came across the show on Netflix. The cast is pretty good and the plot is pretty interesting. Where so many other shows fail at the concept of time travel, Travelers somehow manages to pull it off. I really recommend everyone to watch Travelers, regardless of whether you like sci-fi or not.

[@jamnana2235]

It is indeed far better than it has any right to be as a mid-budget Canadian Sci-Fi show. Every time I watch the show I just can't stop thinking "Damn, the production, acting and writing on this feels like a high-end HBO drama"

[@dianeriley914]

BEST SHOW EVER

[@nobytes2]

It is truly one of the best shows I've watched, I can't believe is so underrated. Canada has some good sci fi shows, but Travelers plot just keeps thickening and not getting boring as some shows get throughout the seasons.

[@heatherdawn4875]

I LOVE Travellers!

[@v13un]

when is the season 3 premiere?

[@luvyou-baby]

"Travelers" is an Amazing smart show, if you love sci-fi with good writing and originality-than i highly recommend it

[@ulisesloyafrank2489]

Then*

[@AngelusHale]

Will & Grace is better than ever. It makes me laugh and it even makes me cry. So well done. So happy it's back.

[@robinh4]

I watch both Travelers and Will & Grace. They're both great shows.

[@johnsonzhang3468]

robinh4: today I watch part of that show ( will and grace )

[@recordingsky247]

Best comment.

AHHAHAAH

[@KingBoragu]

Lol 🤣

[@janetta98]

I really dig Travelers. I'm glad it's on for a second series.

[@markleon411]

Absolutely W&G is comfort food. Nothing else helps to forget the troubled world like those four trouble makers. Love them to bits.

[@Aussienewslover]

Ellen hit the nail on the head. We need comfort TV. I’ve been feeling down, and honest to god I’ve been watching W&G reruns the past couple of days! It’s great TV. So glad everyone came back for it! Including the writers and directors

[@denisetrinkle7866]

Eric is such a hunk. He can play anything or anybody well.!!!

[@joeypark5082]

yes

[@momococo8779]

Original Will & Grace Fan from back in the day. Enjoying the reboot as well. Binge watched Travellers this week...sooooo good. Then came here and watched this. Amazing he’s pulling off both shows! Lots of talent.

[@whhdjwjsjs5162]

I am now starting to believe that Ellen never ages

[@lscheffer87]

DIY&More! Its called botox...and her close ups never happen because she looks like shit

[@mikeo5003]

She's a traveler!

[@miat789]

Omg yes I love Travelers and I got so nervous it wasn't coming back.

[@MikhailKalashnikovMiG]

miat789 it would have been a travesty if it didn't return. It's one of the few shows that does time travel really well

[@pupstermobster8567]

I got nervous by the lack of reaction when he mentioned the show.

[@emercycrite]

Eric McCormack is such a studly man.

[@greenskittles8627]

Travelers is an amazing show. Everyone should watch it. We must get season 3.

[@rmggng]

Ur wish has came true.

[@asifdar77]

You mean season 4 🥺

[@greenskittles8627]

@@asifdar77 yeah I did mean 4

[@syren7957]

I first saw him on Travelers about a year ago. I LOVED IT and I'm not even into sci-fi. And then Will and Grace landed on Netflix a few days ago so I decided to watch it. I LOVE IT so far. And in my head, I was like, "I've seen this actor before but WHERE" so I googled him and was completely shocked. The persona is so different between his two characters and I am amazed by him. Truly.

[@yllhoxha4443]

travelers is fire

[@susanlopez3676]

Travelers is amazing-so sorry it was canceled.

[@TH-tl6sy]

I love Travelers! Such a great show.

[@kim-swan2305]

I've never heard of this "Travellers" show. Sounds Canadian.

[@ratnaroy4948]

I Love 😍😘 Eric McCormack

[@divah1901]

I am sooo happy will and grace is back beyond happy.

[@SonjaDawn]

My mother thought it was reruns, she couldn't tell the difference.

[@marys1032]

Im so glad he was able to stay on travlers and is willing to keep it going and do both. I love that show and cast so much... Everything about travlers is great!

[@MariaCarabin]

[@ernestoalonzo5541]

I'm so happy I came across this show "Travelers". I really hope Season 4 is coming out soon on Nextflix if not I'll probably end my subscription lol

[@jeffreypaul9502]

Unfortunately no season 4 😌

[@gablison]

The way Ellen is describing sitcoms and how it's like a needed comfort and distraction from the going's on of today kinda reminds me of how in like in the old days when people would use food theatre to distract the public from the death and diseases of that time!

[@Food4thought1234]

Yes!! Travelers has a second season!! I wasn't sure if it was coming back.

[@pupstermobster8567]

3rd season! Waiting on #4

[@stoneoffarel]

We reaaally need more sitcoms!!!

[@emgee44]

Love Travelers, great show with good writing, casting and he produces it too.

How is it possible, that they never won a Golden Globe? Hope they win it this time around!

Travellers is amazing... had to watch this.

[@unclespeller6568]

Does anyone else think that the older he gets the more he looks like Scott Bakula? When I saw the new episodes of Will & Grace I thought they had recast the part of Will with Scott Bakula.

Travelers is amazing and will and grace is the best ❤

[@valeriesandoval8710]

I love you so much ellen

[@lakshmib3298]

Guess it must be a bit hard to act gay when he's straight I kinda figured he is straight in Will and grace as his sexuality didn't seem obvious like Sean's. Jim in the big bang theory also plays a straight character being gay so I think that's really Cool.
