Summary: 4 Stars
If you didn't feel the magic disappear at the start of season 4 you'll really FEEL IT NOW! Will & Grace was always a great show from the beginning and pure magic from seasons 1 - 3. But when season 4 started with Woody Harrelson as Grace's love interest the chemistry and magic between all the lead characters seemed to disappear over night. Will & Grace never really had the FUNNY CRAZY lines but they worked well with what they were given. Instead all the good lines were given to Jack & Karen. Pretty much in my opinion for the shows 8 year run it's always secretly been called the Jack & Karen show. Anyways at this point since Will & Grace weren't even given any decent lines, the below average lines that were given they had to turn humorous which just came off really desperate and made the 2 characters even more annoying then they originally were. With season 5 Grace gets married and well....the show just doesn't have any element to keep you tuning in each week. Every episode of this season is almost a pain to watch. You try and look forward to the next laugh and all you get are bad jokes with bad a delivery from the actors and a lot of empty spaces in-between when waiting for the next joke. Every episode you could already tell this show was on its last legs. It wasn't about making people laugh anymore. It was more about learning a life lesson at the end of each episode. When a show starts to become learning about Life Lessons that's when it becomes like the Family Matters sitcom and SLOW torture. I was in shock that this show went on for 8 years. When the show 1st started and after an amazing season 3 I always thought this show would last longer then the over rated Friends sitcom. But after season 4 it was time to hang up the hat and call it a day. Despite that my review maybe coming off negative i do like all of the 4 main actors and this is Will & Grace so i rated it with a 4 star even though i wanted it to be 3 1/2. But because its Will & Grace i still give it a chance.Movie Review: A spotty season, but the last great season of this show.
Summary: 4 Stars
"Will & Grace" was a landmark comedy and featured richly developed characters and wonderful relationships. Season Five of the series was a bit patchy and you can start to see the foundation of what made this show great start to crack. There are some brilliant episodes here so this is not a season to miss. Unfortunately, the characters started to become parodies of themselves towards the end of the season. I loved this show and it saddened me to see its painful decline. Will got insufferably neurotic. Grace had no energy and seemed disinterested. Karen became a shrill buffoon and Jack became constantly hammy. The worst part of this was that they all lost the spark that made their relationships so fun and genuine.
Thankfully, the episodes in this season didn't suffer from those ills. The writing still seemed fresh and the characters were still engaging. I recently picked up the series finale on DVD as season five is the last full season I'm willing to spend my hard-earneds on.
Movie Review: A classic season-badly released
Summary: 4 Stars
Season 5 was one of the best seasons of a brilliant series. HOWEVER, what happened to the season finale? This is the same edited-for-more-commercials version that plays in syndication! The synopsis on the package even declares that "Singer Deborah Harry...guest stars as herself in the episode", yet her scene and others are not to be found. Fortunately, not all episodes receive this shoddy treatment: at least one episode has been restored to its original Supersized (NBC "sweeps" gimmick) length (original air time was 40 minutes with commercials).
Also, considering the glacial pace of releasing each season, these DVDs really should be a) the complete orginal content that aired on NBC, and b) a lot more "loaded with extra features" as the box cover boasts. After all, every single episode of 'The Simpsons' gets a full commentary on the DVD.
I'm just sayin'.
