WILL & GRACE
NBC, 9:00 p.m. ET
SERIES FINALE: Technically, this is Finale #2, because NBC’s Will & Grace, the first time around, presented a one-hour series finale in 2006, after eight seasons on the air, and with the title characters having raised their own children. When the series returned for more episodes 11 years later, in 2017, there were no children to be found (that was careless of them), and Will & Grace continued, with the characters older but no wiser, for another three years. And they go out with a finale episode tonight, accompanied on NBC by a special retrospective. Oh, well. At least they taped this episode, and got out while the getting was good, just in time. This Will & Grace finale may be one of the last TV sitcoms for quite a while to be recorded before a live studio audience. And each and every one of those episodes, in both incarnations of Will & Grace, was directed by the great James Burrows.
