Will And Grace Spin-Off With Jack And Karen

Former Will and Grace co-stars Megan Mullally and Sean Hayes are reportedly set to star in a spin-off of the hit comedy where the double-trouble duo will reprise their roles as Karen and Jack. The show is currently in development with NBC.
According to sources, Hayes was keen on a spin-off soon after Will and Grace ended in 2006 - but was put off by the failure of Matt LeBlanc’s Friends spin-off Joey.
Plans were then derailed when Mullally landed a talk show, but that then flopped, throwing the pair back together again.
An insider tells the National Enquirer:
“They feel there is still a lot of life left in their characters and a lot of comic possibilities.”
If a pilot episode is successful, Karen and Jack could be on the air in the U.S. next autumn.
Exciting news for Will and Grace fans. A lot of people were bummed when the show ended. And there has to be a few special cameo appearances from Will and Grace in this, right?!

Both were brillant in the series

If I were to pick the worst possible idea for a TV show, I think this would be up there.

Words can not describe how much I hate that show and funnily those two bloody characters. I would rather shave myself with a rust spoon then watch even the promo for this cock.

Expect this to bomb within 6 episodes,

Aww I loved Jack.

Ah come on - i wouldn't expect it to bomb after 6 episodes. They're 2 of the most loved characters of a popular sitcom that ran for like 9 series.

I expect they'll make a good few series if it does get the go ahead.

What demon from the depths of hell spawned this abominable idea?

I hated Will and Grace with a passion and found the characters totally devoid of any likeable traits, especially those two characters.

What do you think of the prospect of a Will & Grace spinoff, Mr Smiley?!

Couldn't have said it better myself!

I always thought Jack & Karen were actually funnier than Will & Grace, and Karen is probably one of my favourite comedy characters of all time, so i'll ready to watch (download) this.
