NBC is rounding out the TCA 2017 Winter Press Tour. The biggest news
was a classic sitcom that is indeed coming back. "Honey ... What is
this? What's going on? What's happening?" NBC is officially bringing
back television's favorite foursome with a 10-episode limited run of Will & Grace
during the 2017-18 season. Stars Eric McCormack, Debra Messing, Sean
Hayes and Megan Mullally - each of whom received at least one Emmy Award
for their respective performances throughout the series - will be back,
and original series creators Max Mutchnick and David Kohan will act as
showrunners and executive producers. Legendary director James Burrows,
who directed every episode of the show during its initial eight-year
run, is on board to direct and executive produce. Debuting in 1998, the
show's popularity climbed steadily, ultimately becoming the
highest-rated sitcom in the adults 18-49 demo from 2001-05, and
garnering an audience of more than 18 million for its series finale in
2006. In addition to taking its place in the cultural zeitgeist as a
critic and fan favorite, Will & Grace was nominated for 83
Emmy Awards, winning 16 of them including Outstanding Comedy Series.
Universal Television will produce and distribute the 10 all-new
episodes.
