Quick rapid fire questions


Because I'm bored and curious:

1) Favorite character other than Will, Grace, Jack, or Karen?
2) Least favorite character other than Will, Grace, Jack, or Karen?
3) Favorite Christmas episode?
4) Favorite Thanksgiving episode?
5) Favorite love interest?
6) Favorite quote?
7) Grace's hair: curly or straight?
8) Karen's hair: up or down?
9) Actor you wish had guest starred?
10) Revival, yay or nay?

reply

1) Rosario, definitely. Marilyn Truman is a close second.

2) I know this is a tired opinion but I never liked Leo. In Karen's words, he's boring, he's ugly, and he don't make me laugh. (No offense to Harry Connick Jr, he's a very handsome man but Leo just doesn't do it for me.)

3) I've literally forgotten all the Christmas episodes. The one with Will's nephew Jordy is the only one I remember. He was pretty adorable so I guess I'll go with that one. Although I could have done without the Grace/Sam nonsense.

4) The Thanksgiving episode in Season 4 where they all try to spend exactly one hour with each family, that one was comic gold. Plus it had my favorite moms, Marilyn and Bobbi. Loved them both; wish they could've had a scene together.

5) Nathan was my favorite love interest for Grace. And for Will's love interests, I would've liked to see more of Patrick Dempsey as Matt? I was disappointed that only lasted three episodes. Though ultimately I also like the guy he ended up with (Vince).

6) There's no way I could pick out an all-time favorite quote. I'm blanking. But I do love the recurring-gag quotes, like "Just Jack!" I silently cheer every time they break it out. I also love Will's straight-man quips, like "Did you take a bong hit before breakfast?" or "Have you been swinging from power lines?"

7) Debra/Grace is gorgeous either way. But I personally loved when she had her hair curly, in like an updo? It was very 90s, but very chic.

8) I think I preferred Karen's hair down, but once again, gorgeous either way.

9) I don't know about this one, there were so many guest stars I'm struggling to think of a celebrity that didn't have a stint on Will & Grace lol. I hear they tried to get Barbra Streisand once, I would've loved to see her on the show.

10) I am 100% pro-revival. Ignore the naysayers. We are living in the golden age of TV, every show deserves to be revived for a hot second even if it's just chugging along on a fuel of pure nostalgia.

reply

1) It's a tie between Marilyn Truman and Beverly Leslie
2) I didn't really care for Lyle Finster
3) I don't really remember many Christmas episodes. The only one to come to mind is when Grace secretly does the window display for Jack.
4) When they flashback to college and Grace brings Will home and he announces he's gay.
5) Vince for Will and Nathan for Grace
6) There are two lines of Karen's that always make me laugh: "He's a leguuume!" and "Well, now I'm glad his head is on a stick."
7) Curly
8) Up
9)Richard Gere
10) Yay!

I'm going to add two questions:

Favorite guest star- Matt Damon. I loved him with Jack.
Least favorite guest-star- Britney Spears. She was awful. She's southern and her southern accent was atrocious.

reply

Favorite guest star - Lily Tomlin, hands down. The fact that she only appeared in two episodes was criminal. Also Kevin Bacon. I almost wish they'd made him a fully fledged "character" and made him have a romance with Jack.  I think Kevin would've been down for it.

Least favorite guest star - Demi Moore. Her episode was just awful and her character was totally gratuitous. In terms of actually bad acting, Madonna and Britney Spears were pretty jarring.

reply

1) I do like Rosario, Lyle Finster or Nathan the most. 

2) Leo, he's just mehh 

3) "All About Christmas Eve"

4) "Lows in the mid Eighties"

5) Nathan & Lyle (I wish they both stayed with Grace and Karen) 

6) "Uh, excuse me. As Aretha said to Gloria, Celine, Shania, and Mariah during Diva's Live...'are you trippin?'...'nobody interrupts the Queen of Soul, bitch, mmkay?" 

7) Curly :) I loved it in the earlier seasons

8) Up :)

9) I don't know if there's anyone that I wish guest starred but I really wish Lyle Finster stayed on the show more...

10) ABSOLUTELY!

reply

1) Favorite character other than Will, Grace, Jack, or Karen? Controversial: Rosario or Lorraine

2) Least favorite character other than Will, Grace, Jack, or Karen?
Depends if it is recurring or one off. Either way, I have trouble thinking of one. Maybe Ira.

3) Favorite Christmas episode?
Fanilow.

4) Favorite Thanksgiving episode?
Lows in The Mid-Eighties

5) Favorite love interest?
Nathan

6) Favorite quote?
Karen, what are you doing here? You called in sick this morning.(...) Cough

7) Grace's hair: curly or straight?
Curly

8) Karen's hair: up or down?
Down

9) Actor you wish had guest starred?
Kristen Wiig (if it were today)

10) Revival, yay or nay?
Obviously Yay

reply

dumb question, but who's Ira? The only Ira I remember is the off-screen character that Grace supposedly lost her virginity to.

reply

I think Ira is Mr Stein, Will's boss. (Gene Wilder)

reply

ohh thanks, I didn't know that was his first name.
In that case I agree with them. I love Gene Wilder but didn't care much for his character. I would have much preferred if Lily Tomlin had a longer arc, her character was much funnier to me.
