Well It Looks Like She Married Leo.... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Sitcomwriter · 11-21-2002, 11:34 PM

I'm a cross between happy,sad,surprised and angry right now.Grace and Leo got married andit actually surprised me that they went through with it and it looks like Leo is going to become a regular (ick) because I saw an ad online for the show (the show itself NOT the wedding episode) and it was Jack,Grace,Will,Karen AND Leo! I don't know.Where's Ted McGinley when we need him?

I don't know. I kink of like Leo; there is so much comic talent on the show, they really need a straight man. I think he does a good job in this role.
In reality, despite her claims otherwise, Will and Grace would drift apart. I expect on the show they won't.

Quite frankly, I grew tired of the tension in their (W&G's) relationship. They need a new focus.

And what was with the scene with Karen and Jack? Have they made out before, and I have just never noticed it?

I can't believe Grace married Leo. I think it's a bad idea. It changes the format of the show. Harry Conick Jr. is talented enough, but I liked the cast the way it was.
What now? Grace living with Leo of course, and how does Will fit in? I hope I'm wrong, but I see a shark getting ready to jump on the horizon.
I loved the retrospective show that followed. It was set to really good music too.

According to TVtome.com Karen moves in with Will.

thatbirdmartha · 11-22-2002, 01:14 AM

I'll check out TV Tome but I remember reading something about Harry Connick only appearing on something like 12 or 14 episodes this year. Also, didn't they say something about Will getting a boyfriend or something? That would be an interesting storyline although Karen moving in would be better. She and Jack are the most hilarious ones on the show.

callmetootie · 11-22-2002, 09:32 AM

Ok....so are they going to change he show to "Will & Karen"???? Personally, I actually like Will and Karen together more than Karen and Jack. K&J together seem a bit too forced at times.

BUT....my brother had an interesting idea last night....

He felt that Leo was actually gay also!!! I thought that he may just be right. They can't have Grace married to him the whole way through....that'd ruin the series. And a man moving in with Will is just pushing it way too far. If Grace moves out, then it's not W&G anymore.

Looks like your right Sitcomwriter....here's next times episode:

"The Honeymoon's Over"

After a displaced Karen is booted from her Palace Hotel digs, a sympathetic Will agrees to let her move in with him -- at least until she turns his apartment into a federal disaster zone with her exorbitant lifestyle, forcing Will to try and unload her onto Grace's shoulders. Meanwhile, Jack loses style points when he poses incognito out of fear that the "Gay Mafia" has it out for him.

thatbirdmartha · 11-22-2002, 05:56 PM

Here's a thought -- remember last night when they said that Leo worked as a doctor in Africa for awhile -- called ______ w/o Doors. Maybe he'll go back over there and Grace will decide to move back in with Will -- after all, she has her business.

Kind of like they how they handled Shirley's marriage on Laverne & Shirley. Her husband was in the military and was overseas so it made sense for her to stay w/ Laverne (supposedly). I think the show went downhill from there though.

Does anyone know the name of the song that played during the closing of the W&G wedding show. It's a 60s song and we are racking our brains trying to figure it out. Thanks for your help

Montana Ponine · 11-23-2002, 12:07 AM

I don't know what I think about Grace marrying Leo, but it's definitely going to change some things around...dunno if I'll like it yet. But...erm...I still don't get it...Leo's name is Marvin?!?

callmetootie · 11-23-2002, 10:30 AM

Leo's not really a jewish name, but Marvin I think is the #1 name of jewish males.

Will and Grace Fanatic · 11-23-2002, 02:31 PM

I was surprised on Thursday to find myself rooting for Grace and Leo to get married. I love the Leo character. And someone mentied Karen and Will living together that will be absolutley hilarious. I just can't wait to see those episodes.

callmetootie · 11-23-2002, 02:45 PM

Remember in the episode "A Chorus Lie", when Karen had to pretend that Will was her boyfriend, and starting humping the wall to make noise!!!! My all-time favorite episode of the series!

I'm hoping that Karen moves in with Will, Grace gets a spin-off with Leo, and Liza Minelli moves in with Jack! That'd be great!

Here's what the spin-off with Grace and Leo should be:

"Funny Honey"

Plot: Grace and Leo decide to move out of the city, to a mansion in Vermont, where they own a bed-and-breakfast called "Bagels and Lox". They hire a group of Nutty maids: the 75-year old Mary, and 60-year old Freida...and a zany gay butler, Sherrie. The token black guy of the series, Otis comes back for frequent visits to say a few 5th rate comedy one-liners. And to complete the zany group of misfits is the cute dog, Ronnie. You're invited for a bite to eat every week, now on NBC: Tuesdays at 8:30 after Just Shoot Me!

Cast:

Debra Messing....Grace Alder
Harry Connick JR....Leo
Maggie Smith.....Mary Littleflowers, maid
Betty White....Frieda Crandall, maid
Robin Williams.....Sherrie Tomata, butler
James Brown.....Otis Knight
and
Bob....Ronnie, dog

Yes, I'd say that Marvin is #1 male Jewish name. Leo is usually dervived from Leonard which is another popular Jewish name. Leo can also be short for Leonardo which is Italian as in Leonardo DiCaprio.
I don't know for certain, but I think Harry Conick Jr. is Jewish. On IMDB, it lists both his parents as lawyers and his father's name as Harold. Whatever he is, he's very talented.

Jordan · 11-23-2002, 04:41 PM

I think W&G will not be affected by the marriage -- the creators will find a way that it will work and I think it'll be very intriguing to see what comes next. I was happy Grace finally got married!
