Glad I don't watch Will & Grace. Guess this explains why Megan Mullaly (Karen) got to do the big VH1 interview with her last weekend.

Will and Grace is still the best sitcom on TV IMHO. The only one I've followed religiously. Madonna was fine...there were definitely a few times I laughed. Was she great? Hellz no...but she was definitely better than she's been lately.

I missed 1/2 of it. I turned to the station at 9:26 and the show was on. I though, wow this is early. Then the credits were rolling at 9:40 with a "stars of W&G" recap until 10!! I wish things would start at a normal time.

Best line was from Karen: "I'm gonna get an STD tonite"
The 30 minutes of guest star highlights afterwards was pretty funny. I have to say that Matt Damon was probably the best one IMHO.

For me it's a toss up between Matt Damon (who claimed he was in a relationship with a guy from high school named "Ben") and Kevin Bacon (who had the song "Footloose" hooked up to a Clapper in his apartment.)

Absolutely!! In fact, was he even nominated for an Emmy for that bit? (Guest appearance). If not, he should have been. Everyone I know (friends and work) were talking about how great he was on that episode. My second favorite celebrity guest, and a real close second to Damon, is Sandra Bernhardt. Man was that funny.

Kevin Bacon? I like him a lot as an actor, but thought that episode stunk. I blame the writing. Bacon sure looked like he was having a blast. But the script? WOOF!

Ill' say Matt Damon is the best guest in W&G. Madonna was horrible yesterday. She act better being a bitch than an airhead.

Yes, Madonna truly sucked. She should hang it up. Why didn't she just play herself? Then she wouldn't have to act and it would have been much funnier.

But then we would have probably been subjected to that godawful fake British accent of hers. I was SO relieved when I read that she wouldn't be playing herself. I actually thought she was really good. She and Megan Mullally played SO well off each other. I'd love to see them bring her back for another appearance.

I loved the celebrity clip show, but Eric McCormack's jokes were beyond lame.

My friend called me the day after the show and asked me if I watched. And when discussing Madonna, she said "My God, the woman can't even act on a stinkin' SITCOM!"

Will and Grace - did I hear Karen correctly?

On last night's Will and Grace, did anyone catch a verycloseto dirty-birdy line Karen had?!?! It was well-hidden and I'm surprised it got by the censors...I wanna see if anyone else caught it first before I tell you what it was.

OK time's up!

I know I heard her call Minnie Driver a "cockney sucker" 8-O

I just wouldn't think the censors would let that go by...but I'm guessing they just read the scripts and probably didn't even catch it.

As long as she doesn't call her maid a 'tamale', everything will be ok...

The "English Muffin" line wasn't bad, either!

I couldn't believe what they got away with last week.

Macaulay Culkin (as Karen's attorney) gave her some money and told her to go get a bikini wax, because he liked a "clean work area."

I just open-mouthed...

This show is filled with not-so-subtle lines like that. I don't know of any other network show with as many sexual references, both heterosexual and homosexual.

Honk!

I kind of liked the line:

Minnie Driver ... and all that he left me was "ta".
Karen Well, honey, if you'd had "ta-tas" like these, maybe he'd have left you a little something.

The most suprising thing for me was Minnie Driver flipping Karen off, while pretending to wipe her tears.

I really don't know how censors let that fly. I bet that it'll be one of those things cut for the syndication version.

Culkin: "Here. Get yourself a bikini wax. I like to have a clean work space."

Funny as hell.

This week I personally liked her "eat me" line.

Funny episode last night.

I tell you Minnie Driver was looking well in both of the last 2 episodes.

Chuckles all around there

Will & Grace 10.02.2003

One of the funniest episodes in a long time. Who was the ex-girlfriend?

Lots of great one-liners and quick come-backs. The show is starting to come back around after some not-so-good episodes last season. Because of this I almost talked the wife into a Tivo to record the show while she watches O.C. in a couple of weeks.


Yaaa-hoooo..

Definitely one of the best in the series, with several "laugh out loud" moments!.

And did I really hear Jack say "She doesn't have kabobs - she has a kagina!" ????

I agree and Mira's been one of the few celeb appearances that worked. Take that Madonna!
