I’m rewatching it. It’s so much funnier especially the later series.

@Sulusu

Will and Grace is just an Americanised and less funny version of Gimme Gimme Gimme.
And a richer version! Love Gimme Gimme Gimme - so funny!

I really enjoyed it at the time but I re watched a few episodes recently and didn't enjoy it at all. It's offensive to all the stereotypes it uses.

What happened after the trump episode? They started a new season that seemed to disappear.

rebeccachoc · 15/04/2021 08:09

Absolutely agree. I think Rosario made it (no pun intended!). I was gutted she wasn't in the remake.

Its on Sky Season 10 then I think theres one more.

DontBeRidiculous · 15/04/2021 22:12

Not a fan of either show, really, but if had to choose one to watch, I guess it would be Friends. (Blah.)

Im rewatching and I have to say that Will and Grace have aged beautifully IMHO, I'm finding Grace funnier than I did back in the day. I haven't really been able to get into the reboot, sadly.

Shock No way!! Absolute blasphemy. Friends is the bestest sitcom that has ever been created.

It was such a big thing whilst I was growing up and on TV. It's one of those easy watching series that you can just watch over and over.

Even my kids now watch it. As a family, we sit down to dinner and test eachother on Friends quotes!

littlepattilou · 15/04/2021 22:48

Nah. YABU.

greeneyedlulu · 15/04/2021 22:52

I started watching the new series of will and grace and its cringeworthingly bad and desperate. I love friends though.

lbrc84 · 15/04/2021 22:58

Team Friends! Brew

lbrc84 · 15/04/2021 22:58

That's the best I could find to represent a central perk coffee cup Hmm

Will and Grace were fine but it was Jack and Karen that made the show.

@EachandEveryone

Ross from Friends is Graces steady bf in the new series. Theyve all had plastic surgery!
Shock

To be fair, Ross and Grace deserve each other. Horrible individuals.

ShatnersWig · 15/04/2021 23:18

Friends was tedious unfunny crap. Will and Grace was occasionally smile inducing.

Give me Arrested Development, Frasier, Seinfeld any day.

Queenofbeebers · 16/04/2021 21:11

Arrested Development also amazing Lucille Bluth is magnificent so sad she recently passed away.

Also what we do in the shadows no one seems to love it but me.
