Back when Will & Grace aired the first time, Alan Arkin played Debra Messing’s father. Sadly, he is not able to reprise his role of Mr Adler, so she needs a new actor to guest star as her dad. A man that has played the part before and it is Robert Klein. He starred as her pops on her last show The Mysteries of Laura, so he knows how to pretend she is his daughter.
Messing also added that Blythe Danner will once again play Will’s mom. Now that we know the parents are coming back, it would be nice to know what they will be doing.
Ellen DeGeneres asked Debra Messing to play a game of Speak Out on her show today, but the host had an ulterior motive. As the red head had that plastic thingy in her mouth that gave her that shocked look, Ellen had someone scare her. Which made it harder for the actress to react to anything other than, well, shock. Which was intensified because she was so focused on the game, so she fell out of her chair and found herself on the floor with the plastic thing still her mouth.
Thankfully for the Will & Grace star, she was not left with the Scream face permanently.
Remember how the cast of Will & Grace filmed a little video around the 2016 election on a perfect replica of their set? Turns out that replica was the real thing and played a huge part in reuniting the cast for a video that eventually lead the comeback of the series 11 years after it was cancelled.
Debra Messing was on Live with Kelly and Ryan today and she explained the whole story. Both of the creators went to Emerson College and after the set was done at Smithsonian Museum, they sent it to their alma mater to live out its days.
Then one day, Max Mutchnick got a call from his old school that there was a leak where the set’s exhibit was and they needed to pick it up while they got it fixed. Well the executive producer came up with a brilliant, emailed his cast that he had the set and wanted to know if they would be interested in shooting that a little video to get people to go out and vote. Without hesitation they all said yes and the rest is Hollywood history.
Debra Messing was a teenager in the ’80s, the decade when the more teased and high you hair was, the better. While that was then, this is now. Women have smoother and hair. Or at least they used to before she debuted this new hairstyle. Is she bringing back the hairspray? Nope, it was just for Will & Grace. And for her sake, I hope they helped calm those locks when they were down because I would hate to attempt to do that by myself. Where to start?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTWtRcuWlbY Will & Grace gets serious tonight at 9p on NBC. Grace (Debra Messing) goes to the gynecologist (much to the disgust of Will (Eric McCormack) and Jack (Sean Hayes)) and they find some abnormal cells in her breast. Once she gets over the shock, she gets another one. They called her emergency contact to pick her up and it is Leo (Harry Connick Jr). Now we are going to find out what went wrong in their marriage. Is there a chance they can get back together?
We also learn what a Platinum Gay is and why Jack is one. On that note, Jack gets an acting job and he brings Karen (Megan Mullally) along with him. We are going to see a different side of her.
One thing we will not see a different side of, is just how funny this show still after its 11 year hiatus! I am so happy that NBC brought this show back.

Talking about NBC bringing things back, Tina Fey is on another new episode of Great News tonight at 9:30p. The show takes on a very topical subject, sexual harassment. But they do it with a twist, Diana St. Tropez (Fey) is the harasser.
First she harasses Greg (Adam Campbell), then Carol (Andrea Martin) and pretty much anyone else in the office. Everyone but Justin (Horatio Sanz), because well, and Katie (Briga Heelan). Katie, who does not believe her mentor can do that, so she confronts Diana about. Diana does not deny it, so now the staff of MMN is going to try trap her. What happens next is something none of us will see coming.
Even though, this is an especially upsetting topic right now, they did it a way that is informational and comical. I was beyond impressed by what a Great job they did with a story that is currently in the News. But I am always impressed by this show.
