Will & Grace IS coming back for a new season
This is not a drill! Will & Grace is coming back — for a 10-episode season.
Last night (18 January), Sean Hayes, who played Jack, announced that the cast will be getting back together. In a tweet, he said: “I am thrilled to confirm that #WillAndGrace is coming back to @NBC for the 2017/18 season for 10 eps.”

There has been speculation for a while now that something big was coming from the cast as they recently got together for a mini episode in support of Hillary Clinton’s presidential bid and then they did a performance of West Side Story’s Gee Officer Krupke in support of her.
The hit comedy that first aired back in 1998 and ran for 197 episodes will be coming back with a live studio audience as before, said Eric McCormack (Will) on Twitter yesterday, in reply to a tweet.
That’s the only way we do it, Em! https://t.co/ZBmE3wZ3sh
