After much discussion—and possible misdirection—NBC is moving forward with that Will & Grace revival. Deadline reports the network’s ordered a 10-episode ninth season of the popular sitcom, which originally ran from 1998-2006. There were “months of complex and difficult negotiations,” and, of course, plenty of other TV projects in between for the core cast: Debra Messing was (until recently) leading The Mysteries Of Laura elsewhere on NBC, while Eric McCormack‘s been quantum-leaping about on Netflix’s Travelers. But the overwhelmingly positive response to the ersatz reunion that saw Sean Hayes and Megan Mullally join their co-stars in helping to get the word out to get out and vote probably helped grease the wheels.
