I was just discussing this with another member. They are re-booting the series and bringing it back with all four original members this fall.
I was a HUGE fan of Will & Grace and watched it pretty religiously over its 10 or 11 year run. I think that Karen Walker is one of the best comedic characters ever created. Seriously, you won't find a bigger fan than me.
That being said, during the last couple of years, the sitcom was flailing. It leaned too heavily on the Karen/Jack dynamic and appearances by Karen's maid. . . which all got old very quickly. Even I was relieved when they announced that the show was doing their final season because they just weren't doing anything original or as funny as they were used to doing.
Now, after all of these years, they are bringing the show back. WHY? What is it going to be about? The same stuff that we left on? I really hope that they have some new young blood in there writing the scripts. There is, of course, a ton of potential with those characters, but the public doesn't want to see the same old cliches and gags over and over again. That will get the show cancelled in 1 season or less.
Did you watch Will & Grace? Will you watch the new version?

@NJChicaa probably but would be such a waste of fans time if so

All shows eventually run their course and become tired toward the end. What more can be done with Will and Grace or any other reboot at this stage? It's a desperation for capture ratings via nostalgia.

@NJChicaa I agree this is not the only show they are bringing back they are bringing back Roseanne as welll. I kinda think it is stupid.

I didn't like it, but Karen Walker made Modern Drunkard Magazine's list of Best Sitcom drinkers.
