ABOUT WILL & GRACE
That's right, honey! A decade after their unforgettable eight-season run, comedy's most fabulous foursome is back. Debra Messing, Eric McCormack, Sean Hayes and Megan Mullally reprise their celebrated roles as Will, Grace, Jack and Karen. The 11th and final season of Will & Grace will feature 18 episodes. Behold once again, from the minds of Max Mutchnick and David Kohan, TV's wittiest ensemble ever. The legendary James Burrows, director of every original Will & Grace episode, has returned with a slew of razor-sharp jabs and dirty martinis. Will & Grace stands as NBC's most watched comedy in seven years. Originally debuting in 1998, Will & Grace has been nominated for 91 Emmy Awards, winning 18 of them, including Outstanding Comedy Series. The series has also earned seven SAG Awards and the show is one of the few in TV history where each member of the cast has won an Emmy.

That whole 15 seconds of Megan's silence on the edge of laughter is delicious

[@TightyWhiteyTrash]

I was waiting and waiting…and waiting for her to even have a slight giggle. Obviously, she refused to look at Sean during that silence 😆

[@evancarlson9329]

Her ability to not break is absolutely wild to me.

[@cherylscott6040]

I don't care what anyone says, I still think that Debra Messing would've been a great choice to play Lucille Ball.

[@mistervasquez2959]

Yep

[@davidl7100]

She’s the ONLY one who could play LB!!!

[@dannydougin3925]

Glad you don't care, cause *NOPE!*

[@DebKiwi]

Yes, I was pretty ripped that she wasn’t chosen! She was born to play Lucy!!

[@splendoreoceanico9923]

Megan was clearly dying inside trying not to laugh. And she succeeded. She's such a pro

[@jamjag2a]

I sad the same thing out loud to myself. Professional for sure.

[@BogdanHonciuc]

I was so impressed! I would have died of laughter 😂😂😂

[@tvkritisk]

She had to kill herself for doing that, it's the only way even though, she cracks for a little instant, but I have to agree, she is a pro.

[@Leftatalbuquerque]

"I see you're curious too, Jack." Kills me every time. She is Vicki Lawrence calibre.

[@jodiewilcox6772]

YES!!

[@PowerDiva]

I love how you can see the internal struggle she was having not to break when she saw his eyebrow. That's why she kept looking down for so long before continuing with her line. Kudos to Megan Mullally for holding it together!

[@Redrunner812]

I got a feeling that line was not part of the script 😂

[@evangelle82]

I like how Karen did NOT break. Amazing.

[@explodingplant2]

She's famous for not cracking altho you can see her fighting it when she looks at Jack. The one time I remember she and Sean (and Debra) could NOT hold it together was as Karen and Jack freeze while eating ramen, relying on the ol' "their eyeset relies on movement" trick to evade Grace staring them in the face

[@PowerDiva]

@@explodingplant2there's another blooper where she breaks too - an elevator scene with Molly Shannon. Megan Mullally is famous for not cracking, but she's admitted that Molly Shannon is one of the few people who can get her to break.

[@philiplieu3889]

[@gaymer07]

Sean was trying hard too 😂

[@ralphperry3576]

Yes

[@123benny4]

That eyebrow bit always makes me laugh. I see you're curious too, Jack.

[@willyboy6126]

It's hilarious...and I remember either Jack or someone else said that it "gave him the *permanently interested* look"....LOL🤣

[@blugreen123]

My husband and I say, "The more you know...and shooting star" to this day because of this episode. 🤣

How is it karen?

[@AshLee92490]

Karen has the lowest morality in the crew lol...

[@kenziemorace2837]

You mean jack ?

[@kenziemorace2837]

Like the most popular or whatever and the funniest

[@popland1977]

Megan was a master at staying in character

[@weremyjiggins89]

I was just about to say that she is professional as hell. She's a theater girl, though. She knows the show must go on. You can see an ever so slight grin as she's trying to keep it together. Also, when she says, "I see you're curious too, Jack.", her saying "jack" breaks voice a bit. If I didn't rewatch it 10 times just now I wouldn't have seen.

[@paulac2006]

I always thought of this grin as her one tiny break as I loved seeing them all break, but she did that cute endearing grin each time they’d reference one of her ridiculous life traits or schemes haha so it kind of just passed as her ‘cutesy’ child-like grin she always did. I wish she’d broke but I love her being so professional haha

[@user-ki6os9sm6n]

Isn’t it Karen?

[@christinespiers-wy9kr]

I miss Will and Grace!

[@JoshuaAtmadja]

really love how Sean helps Debra cueing on her missing line 3:17

[@williamwchuang]

Wow I missed that.

[@canny_linguist]

She was really struggling to keep it together 😂

[@steveb7429]

When Sean said “.. and swing on it till dawn!! “ I completely lost it, and I don’t know how Debra managed to get through that scene at all

[@psI6]

I remember laughing until I cried when Jack revealed his missing eyebrow and then again when Grace drew in the replacement.

[@kenziemorace2837]

Same 😂 I laughed so hard I was in tears 😂

[@Ciclopea2]

I remember watching these live, they did them twice because of the east coast/west coast time difference, i think i got to see the east coast one, absolutely brilliant and Sean and Debra were an absolute MESS 😂 but it made the whole thing funnier. Definitely a highlight from an already brilliant and original run of this show.

[@toddanthony6664]

I wish they'd post the west coast versions of these episodes. Those were the ones that had mistakes. In Alive and Schticking, Sean and Debra flubbed several lines. In the west coast version of Bathroom Humor, the pill bottles came out much later than expected.

[@Izzymoggington]

i saw both versions on TV years ago but can only find one of them now and the other one was so much funnier

[@Ciclopea2]

@@Izzymoggington in my memory i think i got to see bits of both versions. I remember that in the other one when Jack tells Grace that she relies too much on her hair Debra loses it, maybe they were doing that scene for the first time. I wish they would post highlights from both versions.

[@10181ngh]

I NEVER REALIZED THERE WERE TWO VERSIONS?! 👀👀👀

[@LadyEng]

Megan never breaks. Eric rarely does. I love all of them.

[@Goddessvenom]

The “curious” eyebrow reveal has me ugly cackling like a hyena 🤣😂

[@kapervee]

‘What kind of prescription plan are you on by the way?’ I always laugh when Sean & Debra break character. 😂 6:59

[@piperks_]

Even in episodes that aren’t live, you can always tell when Debra wants to laugh… it gets me every time.

[@blurdreamer]

7:49 you can see the split second that Megan almost break when she look at Jack, but she hold it in real quick XD so pro.

[@ZAjosh]

The best is Megan almost cracking at 7:49 I loved the live shows.

[@christopherporter2459]

The look on Sean's face at 3:46 is absolutely priceless... The fact that it stays like that for nearly 25 seconds (presumably) is just so funny

[@CrashloveXO]

I was fortunate enough to attend one of these revival seasons tapings. IT WAS SO FUNNY when you get to see everything and the bloopers in real time.

[@gahtheone]

Absolutely genius to make them live 😂

[@gottalovetheinternet]

They were ?! Wow. So they’re like recorded plays, basically? I know friends was recorded live but they would do take after take to get the best scene.

[@Tia.H]

@@gottalovetheinternet they're recorded in front of a live audience with many takes, trying to get the right ones and cutting out the bloopers, allowing time to move from set to set and wardrobe changes and hair and makeup. 'Alive & Schticking' (first episode of season 8) and 'Bathroom Humour' (11th episode of the 8th season) were the exceptions, as they were recorded live - no retakes; the cameras kept rolling.

[@liuliukiu]

@@Tia.H the 2 eps were broadcasted live too, not just recorded and then broadcasted.

[@gottalovetheinternet]

Ah wow, thats great thank you! I must watch those episodes again@@Tia.H

[@Tia.H]

Yes, you're right. @@liuliukiu I read that after I had made the comment, but forgot to come back and edit my comment. I love when episodes are filmed (and broadcast) live, especially seeing the actors break character! Meghan and Eric are pros, able to just push through without breaking! Well, you see Meghan struggling a bit - she was looking everywhere but in Sean's direction, trying to keep from bursting out laughing. Eric, though... he cracked during the second live, but the first one, nothing; not even a small smile! I don't know how any of them are able to keep from laughing all the damn time!

[@sharonlacy1837]

I don't know how they ever made it through an episode. How did they stop the laughter? LOVED this show.

[@apoliticallevi]

“Tell me how you feel about this business then?” Good save jack. Keep grace grounded lmao

[@Willow76ny]

Live or taped, I don’t know how any of them managed to keep a straight face at all. Great job!

[@scottgarbo1288]

Each one of these amazing, talented, lovable actors played their characters to the hilt and no one was weaker than the others or had to be carried. They made television magic ❤

[@adamspark9259]

[@Alb_01]

Let's be honest, we watch these live episodes in the hope there will be mistakes and corpsing and these 2 Will & Grace live episodes are the best/most entertaining. I've watching these 2 eps so many times, always makes me laugh.

[@chightower3758]

I still can't get over Jack's "curious" eyebrow.☠😅😂🤣

These were the greatest episodes because of the imperfections. Wish we could see both east and west coast versions!!

[@bradleymoon1248]

When Jack says to Grace, "Tell me about this business...." he's clearly cuing her because she forgot her line. These clips are the best!

[@WinstonCharles2010]

Karen and Jack made that show so much better

[@robertbangkok]

Some say the show was mistitled: It should have been Jack & Karen.

[@CatLover-23]
