Rumors started going around that "Will & Grace" will be back on the air as a series because some reports claimed that NBC has confirmed it. The rumors claim that the network is reviving the popular sitcom in 2017. It has been 18 long years since the first episode of the popular sitcom was aired.
The Show Ended In 2006
The final episode of "Will & Grace" was aired in 2006. At its final episode, millions of viewers tuned in to see the last antics of Will Truman (Eric McCormack), Grace Addler (Debra Messing), Jack McFarland (Sean Hayes) and Karen Walker (Megan Mullally). Since their show was cut, the four have been itching to return.
Will The Fans Welcome A Reunion?
Why did "Will & Grace" end 10 years ago? And will the fans welcome their reunion? The sitcom aired from 1998 to 2006. It had a great influence in pop culture during the time when it had its run. There were no additional episodes made after its finale, but the show has been a regular feature on the schedules of many stations.
Why Are There Talks About It Being Revived?
A report from E! News indicated that the current rumors that "Will & Grace" will be revived is probably sparked by a 10-minute reunion video of the cast that went viral. The video was received with a lot of fanfare in many platforms. In the video, Erick McCormack, Debra Messing, Sean Hayes and Megan Mullally were encouraging voters to vote in the presidential elections on Nov. 8.
One thing is made clear on the reunion video: the group still has the unique chemistry that can make the audience laugh and think. This group doesn't seem to have missed even a beat since "Will & Grace" ended in 2006. Mashable believes that Hillary Clinton might have something to do with the show's reboot. It tweeted: "A real 'Will & Grace' revival is in the works thanks to Hillary Clinton."
