TV guide editor attacks W and G - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Will and Grace Fanatic · 04-30-2002, 03:08 PM

If any one you have been online at tvguide.com or have the new tvguide the editor does a article on Will and Grace and attacks them saying Will and Grace's ratings are only as good as they are this season because of all the celebrities appearance. He says that is why they have been beaten out this season by CSI and that viewers of Will and Grace have left that show for CSI. and he also says that W and G can only deliver one liners. I don't beleive that because W and G placed 14 ( I think ) last season and last time I check they were 10th for this season. That is pretty good. all viewers should go to tv guide and write to this man about this topic. Also what are your opions about this subject he has talked about?

What? TV Guide needs to keep there mouths shut about this show. Will and Grace is a great show. One of the best shows currently on. So what if CSI when's the time slot usually. that don't me nothing. They could place 20 th next season.

What that editor seems to have forgotten is that a key to knowing whether or not you have a quality show is if you can get those huge stars. When you can land Cher, Glenn Close, Micheal Douglas, Molly Shannon, Ellen DeGeneres, Rosie O'Donnel, and Matt Damon, you know you have a pretty good show. So that editor is obviously false in his belief.

I agree. The editor just doesn't like the show. Who cares. CSI will continue to beat Will and Grace because it's a different type of show. By the way, CSI received horrible buzz when it first came out. I remember reading the reviews about the corny dialgoue, CBS really got lucky with this one.

Fortunately, I don't put much stock in what so-called "critics" have to say about anything. Will & Grace is a fabulous show and I think the cameo guest appearances by stars have been fantastic!!!

"Too many one-liners?"

It's a sitcom!!! It's supposed to have one liners!

Next thing they'll criticize Jack for being too gay.
