Will & Grace Podcast

If anyone is looking for a reason to re-watch Will & Grace (I know I always am) there's an online podcast called Not A Couple (http://twitter.com/NotACoupleshow) featuring two friends, Tess and Matthew (one who has seen the show, one who is watching it for the first time) who consider themselves to be like the real-life version of Will and Grace.
They're re-capping each episode in a way that is both hilarious and deeply analytical. They've just finished Season 1 and though they're doing a great job, they don't have a huge following and I wanted to let fellow fans know about this podcast.

I'm not affiliated with them in any way, I just want to spread the word. They release new episodes every Thursday and they're both available online and for download.

I just want to add that they really go into discussing the show from a 2016 perspective and how the show has aged in 18 years, what has changed culturally (in the LGBT community and representation in the media) and what still holds up today. It's really interesting. But it's still really relaxed and informal at the same time.
It would be really cool to have someone to listen to this with me, so let me know if you do ~

I just wanted to thank you for the "heads up" about the Not A Couple

Will & Grace just started being shown again in my neck of Canada, and while watching the episode From Queer To Eternity just now, I took a look at the Boards and found your thread - and darned if it isn't Thursday!! I'm going to try to catch up on it and I'll be delighted to chat with you about it.....thanks again

Yay! glad to hear it!😊
they're currently on a 2-week hiatus before they start Season 2 so now is actually the perfect time to catch up anyway!
so good to know that the will & grace fandom is still somewhat alive!

Hey there, lucyhannahblue

I thought you'd like to know, if you haven't heard already, is it looks like there just might be a reunion kind of Will & Grace in the works!!
MSN is running an article in their news feed about it today - let's keep our fingers crossed, eh?!

I'm totally gonna check this out. Thanks!

Although, I was high when I watched this.

Yay, I'm so excited to have you all on board!
They also did a quick podcast about the Vote Honey video which they recorded pretty much as soon as it aired. These guys work fast !

What's the "Vote Honey" video, and how do I access it?

Basically the cast of Will & Grace reunited for a mini-episode. It's basically part of a Hillary Clinton ad campaign (since Debra Messing works for the Hillary Clinton campaign) but it's still really funny and it's really heartwarming to see them all together again. 😅

this is a pretty neat podcast! I'm just really glad people of my generation (millennial/post-millennial) are even watching this show at all, let alone creating content about it. For years I thought I was the only young 'un who still loved Will & Grace. good to know I was wrong 

I just noticed that Eric McCormack tweeted about the podcast so he seems to be aware of it too
