‘Will & Grace’ Series Finale Preview: Fans are 'not ready' to say goodbye to their favorite show a second time
All good things must come to an end, they say. And so will NBC’s groundbreaking sitcom ‘Will & Grace’ 2.0, or as the second run of the show is popularly known. What started back in 1998 went for eight long years and then ended, for the first time so to say. After a break of 11 long years, the show came back, not necessarily taking off from where they left, but rather a reboot. And now, after a three-four year run, the fun four lead stars (along with some of their entourage) will say goodbye, yet again.
But it’s not easy for the fans, especially for those who have been with Will Turman (Eric McCormack ) and Grace Adler (Debra Messing) through their journey right from the start.
A Twitter fan says, “Going to miss you guys! Been watching #WillAndGrace from the beginning.. making sure I have tissues next to me Thursday Crying face #WillAndGraceFarewell”
Over the years, across their first and second run, the show had received immense popularity and became a kind of cult. When it ended the first time, fans were upset, of course, but they probably got over it. When it came back, it brought back the joy, which was classic for its characters. And now, when it is finally ending, the reality is sinking in for the viewers. Merely a day before the series finale, all ‘Will & Grace’ fans are pouring their hearts out on Twitter, thanking the cast and the creators, and trying really hard to bid adieu, but cannot.
“Tomorrow my all time fav show comes to an end... For the second time...”, a fan said. Another posted a GIF of a scene with Grace crying out loud and captions it as, "I’m so sad #WillandGrace is actually ending. This show made me laugh over and over again every week! #WillAndGraceFarewell”
Like we said earlier, fans are just not ready to say goodbye yet.
“I'm so not ready for tomorrow... #WillAndGrace #seriesfinale @EricMcCormack @DebraMessing @MeganMullally @SeanHayes Thank you so much for all the laughter and the tears. Tomorrow will be heartbreaking as we say goodbye to one of the best comedies of all times. #willandgrace,” comments a fan.
You would be surprised how far and wide this show has reached with the fabulous four lead characters stealing hearts across the globe. A fan from Greece gets nostalgic about the show and says, “I grew up with #willandgrace, you were my laughter, my company, my joy at all dark times... Thank you @EricMcCormack, @MeganMullally,@DebraMessing, @SeanHayes. Much love from Athens, Greece”
Finally, in the middle of all the ruing and regretting on Twitter, a fan come up with an idea that could keep the show alive for years to come. “How about @NBCNetwork airing #WillAndGrace from the beginning in the time slot they have now ?! I bet millions want to watch the show from the very first season 1998 Who agrees with me ?” she posted.
So, keep the Kleenex ready and join the dynamic duo on their final ride on ‘Will &Grace’ Season 11, finale, airing Thursday, April 23, 9pm/8c, only on NBC.
