Hey everyone,

I just thought it would be much better if all Will and Grace related news was posted here. The Reason? most news of Will and Grace gets no or very few replies. This way if you do want to read up on recent Will and Grace news us posters do have here you can read them all in one topic. And so there are not so many topics with no or few post.
Thanks

Can't remember where I read this but... with the success of so many spin-offs such as CSI Miami, both Law and Orders. The Networks are hoping viewers will do the same for sitcom spin-offs. NBC has already bought a few episodes of the "Friends" spin-off "Joey" without a script even written yet. Now CBS wants to spin-off "Everybody Loves Raymond" but CBS has not said who they want to spin-off. Most critics beleive Ray's brother will spin-off.
But now NBC president Jeff Zucker has had talks with Megan Mullaly about spinning of Karen. He wants to spin-off her character by the 2004-2005 season. Megan has said she does have interest in a spin-off but only when Will and Grace is off the air. So NBC may have to wait till the 2005-2004 season since Will and Grace is still signed on for the 2004-2005 season.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned but when they cut to a commercial break on the Oprah Winfrey show yesterday, they showed a very short clip mentioning that the Will and Grace cast will be on Oprah this Friday.

It looks as though Debra Messing will have to be present via satalite because of her pregnancy, but still, looks like it will be pretty nice.

I remember watching the cast on the Actor's Studio and it was great!

Don't forget to watch everyone.

Latest news: NBC has fired the show runners and will replace them as early as next week. this comes after the sued the network for "neogtiating a liscensing fee under market value." Effectivley, the network, which owns the show, negotiated with itself to pay $5mil an episode two years ago, which'll bringing the show into its 7th season.

The producers other series, Good Morning Miami has effectively been cancelled because of this.

So a question goes out: do you think $5mil an episode is fair for the show?

I think it's more than fair- ratings are sliding and it was the same amount Friends and ELR made at that point in their runs. Both series were more popular at the time.

Also, do you think the 7th season will be the last for the show?
