Yet Another Will & Grace Special Guest Star
How many times can one show jump the shark? They keep sinking to lower and lower depths with these guest stars. I think that they have backed off of it recently though.
I'll spoiler for the complainers out there:

Was going to post about this when I found out about it yesterday.
Whatever.
It kills me much this show has gone downhill. Seasons 1-4 were practically perfect.

Friends and The Simpsons had a lot of guest stars in their latter seasons as well. Relying on guest stars is pretty lame IMO. Even when AD did it with Charlize Theron. The show improved once she was out of the picture.

I still think the show is great but that's just me. But I will admit that if it weren't for Karen Walker and to a lesser degree Jack the show wouldn't have lasted this long because Will and to a lesser degree Grace just aren't that funny.

Ditto. Jack and Karen keep the show alive, not Will and Grace.

I never got this "general public" concensus. That's what screwed up the show in the first place. J&K got a lot of attention and the writers started making it half W&G/half J&K. It's not CALLED J&K. The whole point is that they're supposed to be sidekicks and NOT the main characters. If they were the whole show, it would be vapid and pointless.
But maybe, like so many other "gay" media events, it's all about who you can relate to.

I've given up on this a long time ago, but agree with the majority that Karen for me and then Jack were the reason I tuned it.
Will and Grace could have run off, well esp grace, and that's sad cos she was really well used on Ned and Stacey.

I watched this one after having given up on the show a couple of seasons ago. I am surprised it is still on the air, to be honest. The only real enjoyment I got was when a character would do something and I would remember something they did in the early seasons that made me laugh.
