In 1998, Eric McCormack and Sean Hayes began playing best friends on Will & Grace, and they are still friends 28 years later.
How do I know that? Will went to see Just Jack in his Broadway play, The Unknown. Something that would be a dream come true for McFarland, but is a reality for Hayes!
I love that for them because I love that the chemistry we loved wasn’t faked for the camera…unlike the rumors that it was between Debra Messing and Megan Mullally during the revival
In 2021, CBS added Ghosts to their lineup, and next season, Vampires will be joining them. Eternally Yours comes from Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, who brought Ghosts to the States.
The sitcom is “centered around Charles (Ed Weeks) and Liz (Allegra Edwards) – a vampire couple whose once-passionate romance has devolved into a pulseless marriage after 500 years together. Living in present-day Seattle with their oddball coven, they’ve settled into an eternal rut—until their daughter’s (Helen J. Shen) earnest human boyfriend (Jaren Lewison) unexpectedly enters their lives and forces them to confront whether their love can survive forever… or if forever is a life sentence.”
Next season, CBS will only have three half-hour series, Ghosts, Eternally Yours, and Georgie and Mandie’s First Marriage, on their schedule, since they cancelled The Neighborhood and DMV. So it will be interesting to see how they handle the vacant 30 minutes.
Will it be news? A game show? A magazine show? A talk show? We will find out on April 15th when they announce their 2026-2027 schedule.
Before Jean Smart had seven Emmys, she was credited as a Woman Bather in Before and After. You can totally recognize her voice when she was 27 making her on-camera debut in that 1987 television movie of the week.
CBS announced today that P!nk is hosting the Tonys, the award show that is dedicated to Broadway, something she has never done. So, I am completely confused as to why they asked her over a Broadway star like Jonathan Groff, Andrew Rennells, or Alan Cumming.
Even the singer was confused, “When I was asked to host @thetonyawards, my first question was — don’t you need to have been on Broadway for this?” I guess not.
“We are thrilled to welcome the incomparable P!NK as the host of this year’s Tony Awards – a fearless artist whose powerhouse voice, electrifying stage presence and undeniable authenticity embody the very spirit of live performance and theater,” said executive producers Raj Kapoor, Sarah Levine Hall and Jack Sussman. “A passionate fan of Broadway, she brings a genuine love for the art form alongside her bold creativity and deep connection to audiences around the world, and we know she will deliver a fresh, dynamic energy to Broadway’s biggest night!”
I don’t doubt that she will bring a dynamic energy to the show. I just don’t get why they didn’t ask someone who has done theater to do it. But that is me.
The Tonys will air on June 7th, and I expect Keanu Reeves to be nominated.
