Will & Grace is a popular Emmy Award-winning and Golden Globe-nominated American television sitcom that was originally broadcast from 1998 to 2006. The show focused on Will Truman, a gay lawyer, and his best friend Grace Adler, a straight Jewish woman who runs her own interior design firm. Also featured are their friends Karen Walker, a very rich socialite, and Jack McFarland, a struggling gay actor. The show takes place in New York City.
The show debuted on the NBC network on September 21, 1998 and steadily gained in popularity, culminating when it moved to Thursday night as part of NBC's Must See TV line-up. When the show lost Friends as its lead-in at the end of the 2003-04 season, however, it began shedding viewers and slipped out of the Top 20.
The eighth season premiere was broadcast live on September 29, 2005, as was another episode in early 2006. The hour-long final episode aired May 18, 2006, preceded by a one-hour retrospective. The final broadcast drew in an estimated 18.1 million viewers.
Will & Grace was filmed in front of a live studio audience (most episodes and scenes), at Stage 17 in CBS Studio Center, a space that totals 14,000 sq. ft.
