My crush was Will, and the shaping of my personality 😂. But Karen and Jack were the loves of my life 😂😂😂 my humor is definitely built around them, and the Golden Girls lol
These characters gave me confidence!!! I was 10 in 1998 when this world began. I'm 36 now in 2024, and I'm only getting younger and younger as I wake up laughing.. knowing it will still be the best part of waking up. I love JACK & KAREN
Sean and Meghan really showed how absolutely, totally multi talented they are with the song they sang in their finally episode. Unforgettable, is NOT an easy song to sing, nor is an easy song to sing ANY PLAY, but these two pro did it MASTERFULLY. And I cried the first time they did it, and I found myself tearing up watching it again. This was truly one of the all time best casts TV has EVER seen. And I miss the fun and laughter each Thursday night!
I believe I read once that Jack and Karen were being considered for their own spin off after W&G ended but when Friends did the same thing with Joey and it totally bombed NBC execs got scared and decided to not proceed.
I think that the characters of Jack and Karen would have needed the characters of Will and Grace as straight people to play off of--in the same way that the character of Ethel served as the straight person for the character of Lucy to play off of. For that reason, I don't think a spinoff would have worked--unless the spinoff's creators came up with new straight people.
1:37 I’m just now noticing that Grace and Leo’s dining room is almost (if not) identical to Vince’s mom’s dining room from the Thanksgiving episode where we meet Vince’s family.
100 agree, even show consistent showed them to be side, or crazy. They are actually way better characters in every way their friendship, their humor and even their chemistry lol
the only sitcom to broadcast in the 90s, 00s, 10s and 20s, all while omitting we all watched episodes over four decades mostly because of jack and karen
"i want to be arrested!" "go outside in that outfit." "go outside in that outfit." to be honest, the outfit was bangin' but the top is the worst possible cut for her shape. 😁
They really did make the show a big success - Will and Grace themselves are the 2 most boring characters ever - even though I can't understand a guy as hot as Will have so much trouble getting a guy. Really?
Jack and Karen were perfect foils for Will & Grace. We needed all 4 characters to make it work. A show with Jack and Karen alone would be funny, but it would make the show too superficial after a while.
And 55:06 when grace is assumed psycho to get out of jury duty.. Karen and Jack sorry so much about her... and how they'll be murdered... Great scene acting.
I remember (5 years ago) being as thin as 'Grace' and having no boobs. That meant taking in 350 calories plus walking and working every/all day. BMI 14.... I hope she went more healthy too. Looking at her now is a bit confronting tbh.
