Dodging the Baby Bullet on 'Will & Grace'

LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - Things are not looking good for Will or Grace Jr.

Last season, the titular characters on "Will & Grace" decided to throw in the towel
on their romantic lives to focus on having a child together. Grace (Debra Messing) was
on her way to a fertility clinic to be artificially inseminated when she ran into Mr. Right
(Harry Connick Jr.). Actually, she ran into a light pole and then met Leo, a handsome
Jewish doctor.

After turning down Leo's romantic advances several times, Grace relents and goes out
with him, much to Will's (Eric McCormack) dismay.

"In the beginning of the season, I still go ahead and try and get inseminated with Will's
sperm," Messing said last month. "But certainly, meeting Leo -- having the connection
that we have, given that he is completely relentless -- it certainly does put a wrench in
everything and complicates things to an extreme and delicious degree."

On Thursday's (Oct. 9) episode of the NBC comedy, Grace asks an impatient Will for
an extra month to reconsider the idea of parenthood. He may not be thrilled by the
new development, but viewers should be relieved. A new baby rarely improves a
series, especially an hip ensemble comedy. Just ask fans of "Sex and the City."

"Will & Grace" airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET on NBC.
