    ABOUT WILL & GRACE
    That's right, honey! A decade after their unforgettable eight-season run, comedy's most fabulous foursome is back. Debra Messing, Eric McCormack, Sean Hayes and Megan Mullally reprise their celebrated roles as Will, Grace, Jack and Karen. The 11th and final season of Will & Grace will feature 18 episodes. Behold once again, from the minds of Max Mutchnick and David Kohan, TV's wittiest ensemble ever. The legendary James Burrows, director of every original Will & Grace episode, has returned with a slew of razor-sharp jabs and dirty martinis. Will & Grace stands as NBC's most watched comedy in seven years. Originally debuting in 1998, Will & Grace has been nominated for 91 Emmy Awards, winning 18 of them, including Outstanding Comedy Series. The series has also earned seven SAG Awards and the show is one of the few in TV history where each member of the cast has won an Emmy.

      I wasn't a big fan of the reboot; seems they're trying to hard to capture what they had and just didn't work.
      Until this episode. This was by far the best of the whole new season, and Emmy worthy..
      The guest stars were nothing short of incredible. Leslie and his "well well well" in Italian...and Lucie Arnaz as the supervisor. ..... Just amazing.

      @@michael91411, I have NEVER been a fan of the show. I knew about it. Knew what it was. But until last night, I hadn't watched a full episode of the original or reboot. I only DVRed this episode because I read about it in my TV Guide about an hour before it was coming on. And that was really only because Debra Messing talked about doing the make up for her part as Fred. I was intrigued to see her as Fred...but was overly surprised by EVERYONE! If Lucy didn't possess the body of Debra...she was amazing! Sean Hayes as Fred was damn near PERFECT. And Leslie Jordan should just be in EVERYTHING!!! That guy NEVER fails in anything I've seen him in.

      I remember watching a documentary on TV about I Love Lucy, and they interviewed Debra Messing.

      It’s only borderline perfect because of these two things: She looks pregnant and Lucy wasn’t and had a waist, and the voice is CRITICAL. How could they have screwed that up? She needed to deepen and go raspy. We are all imitating Lucille Ball’s voice right now - 😂😂 We can do it?? A professional actor can’t?? It would be like being all made up to look like Groucho Marx and then having someone else’s voice coming out of the character instead of Groucho’s. This is LUCILLE BALL for crying out loud!! Why is Debra Messing’s high-pitched voice coming out of Lucy? Major fail considering her spot on appearance. (Except again, Lucy had a lovely figure and small waist at that time. That’s confusing except none of us watch this show so is her character pregnant?

When they show the Christmas episode and another colorized episode each year, it is ALWAYS the highest rated show of the night. Truly amazing and a testament to its greatness and the enduring love America will always have for the show and its stars, especially Lucy.

It’s most probably not shown in other countries (or just not anymore).

    I feel like people often try to 'overplay' Lucy but Grace plays it just like Lucille Ball. Lucy Ricardo may seem wacky but you gotta play her straight.

      atgb143 Lucie Arnaz wanted to use Cate Blanchard to play Lucy in an upcoming bio feature film, last I heard from her a few years ago. I hope she will use Debra now as I suggested to her. Debra is funnier, prettier and resembles Lucy more.

      Debra actually played Lucy on her prior TV show before W&G. Seeing all the comments saying she should play Lucy tells me no one watched that show.

    I am a huge fan of Lucille Ball and especially this scene I remember as a little girl and till now 40 years later I still watch it... Debra did an amazing job imitating her vocally looks like her mannerisms on target I’m so glad she remade it, very fun to watch!!

    I LOVE it!!! I just finished watching a special on Lucy and Debra Messing was part of the interview. I had no idea she played this iconic I Love Lucy episode. She aced it!!! I've been watching re-runs of Will and Grace every morning and had no idea she did this until I saw the special on Lucy. I had to run to CZcams (because I already knew I would find it here) and look it up. Love Always I Love Lucy and now Will and Grace is one of my favorite sitcoms I will never miss an episode.
