Classic 90's show that may or may not have been a little ahead of it's time. I was happy to hear it was re-booted but they're trying a bit too hard to show that the characters are "hip and current." Maybe it will progress as it continues to run.

I've watched probably 10 episodes, so, I think I have a good base of the show and where it's going. I really tried but it just isn't the same. And the whole Emmy nom made me really question the authenticity of the Emmys. I know the Grammys are mostly political, but the Emmys and Oscars always seemed more legit until recently. I mean, how does The Good Place, a completely fresh, original, well-written, well-acted, and diverse cast get completely ignored, and the comfortable-shoe of Will & Grace get a nod? The network's mistake is they should have left the comedic sidekicks: Jack and Karen, the way they were, and the cute friend-couple: Will and Grace, should change. Raise of hands who wants to see Jack and Karen grow as people? What? No one? Exactly, without them the comedy is pretty thin. And while Will and Grace was the adorable besties...them playing the same schtick into their fifties is...sad. I can't help but feel a little sad every time they're on screen. Grace is headed towards three cats and living alone and Will is headed toward bitter old queen, commiserating over old loves lost that he passed up when he had the chance. No one wants that for these two beloved characters.The only episodes I enjoyed and would say were good (other than Will and Grace, still being sad), was Jack saving his grandson from the anti-gay camp, and the Telemundo episode where Will and Karen scheme to have her hunky chefs hook up. The Christmas episode where they went back in time to the Irish tenements was just painful. I think I gave up after that and just recently saw the Telemundo-soap-opera-style episode. I can understand the network starting off the show going super PC, even showing Jack and Karen as these heartfelt do-gooders, because millennial's answer to anything they don't like or understand is to riot, start a protest, a petition, try to get them kicked off the island, whatever. But suck it up, there's a reason all the viewers are drifting away from the networks to Netflix, premium channels, and the cable channels deep in the abyss of cable. People want something other than a homogenized show that appeals to everyone. Can you imagine HBO trying to homogenize Game of Thrones and make sure it appeals to everyone and doesn't step on anyone's shoes or offend anyone? It would be garbage and wouldn't last a season.They tried pulling the PC stuff in the late '90s early 2000s during Clinton and I literally felt sorry for children that they had to grow up on the watered down shows we had to serve them. That, coupled with higher taxes and trade agreements that allowed entertainment companies to ship half their work overseas has a lot to do with why LA went from being cleaned up and nice to the bankrupt, crime, garbage pit going on right now. If half the jobs that pays the taxes get shipped off or eliminated what do you think pays for the city? There is a time and place for PC but in entertainment it's a stifling, creativity killer. Around the same time in children's programming you'll notice how the cable channels like Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon excelled and the networks crumbled and some shut down? Yeah, that's called too many terrible notes from the network that turns great shows into watered down slop no one watches, not even children.

At first I thought I'd give this series just a grading and no review but since I saw all of these ungrateful whiners complaining, I decided to write a small review. I started watching this series very early on and have re-watch it many times. Will&Grace is simply one of the best sitcoms ever; compared to "Frasier" or "Friends" the writing is clever, funny and I love the characters. Even at their worst behavior, they are actually funny. I was excited to hear about the continuation and I wasn't disappointed. I love the fact that we live in a world where people are not afraid to speak their mind. I love the fact that we live in a world where it is possible to mix reality and fiction. When tv series, like CSI NY, included 9/11 in their series, no one said anything. Now that Trump is shown as the moron that he is, people are SO angry. I say: GOOD. You don't want to hear anyone bad-mouthing the president? Lock the door, stay at home and don't open the tv or computer, easy as that. No one has to pretend to respect anyone they don't want to. Now, outside the grasp of reality, I still find the characters lovely. I missed Karen's voice, Jack's antics and the loving chemistry between Will and Grace. I do miss Rosario though.

I remember when this show came out. It was different with chemistry between the actors. Over time it got a little over the top with it's Gay characters hitting every stereotype to the max. Naturally the show came to an end after extinguishing every plot line imaginable for a 22 min sitcom. And that was okay. But Now 11 years later they bring it back, only to wish away the last 11 years. Did they freshen it up? NOPE they just went into a tailspin of Trump bashing one liners. To the point you can't even call then jokes. Just "drive by" Gay Stereotypes and overdone president bashing. If you were a fan before, re-watch the old episodes. And if you the Other half of the country tell the producers how much you don't care for their political "humor" by taking your business elsewhere.
