Memories from the Set: Eric McCormack on "Townies"
8/12/14
This flop of an ABC sitcom could also be titled "These People Are All About to Become Huge Stars".
The cast included:
Jenna Elfman (Dharma & Greg)
Molly Ringwald (The Breakfast Club)
Lauren Graham (Parenthood)
Ron Livingston (Office Space)
and Eric McCormack (Will & Grace)
McCormack came on for a handful of episodes as Elfman's character's boyfriend.
He remembers the experience as enthralling ("I felt very at home doing it") and frustrating ("I was pretty much a cog in a wheel that was everybody else's show. I remember thinking, 'This is tough. It's tough to have four lines or one good scene in an episode like this.'")
He carried the memory with him to "Will & Grace", where the four main cast members agreed to welcome guest stars warmly, "because we all know how it feels to feel like you don't fit in."
