Will & Grace - Season Five

Will and Grace laugh till it hurts
Will and Grace is written so we'll. Little shocks here and there : Cher, Elton John and more stars appear in the series.

Something Is A Little Off
Huge Will & Grace fan Here,I wasn't to impressed with the way that this season was presented to us,the fans.It seems that there are some scenes from the original broadcasts are missing.I would have 5 star'd this season but something definately went wrong this season.Its seems we got the syndicated versions of this season. I think they should re-release season 5 & for those die hard fans like us, we should be compensated in some way.

A spotty season, but the last great season of this show.
"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.

One of the best ever...
Will & Grace to me is one of the best tv shows ever!!! It touches a lot of emotions that friends share, be it gay, straight or otherwise. I also feel it was one of the best written shows as well. Each of the four characters play a huge role in each episode and in their own way are all the stars, not just the main two. I now have all eight seasons and find I can watch them repeatedly.

A classic season-badly released
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'.

Cute series
I have complete seasons one through five and plan to get six soon. My daughter and I love this show. The writing is original and witty. Truly funny, provocative and entertaining....it is a favorite of ours along with The Golden Girls and I Love Lucy!... We think Karen, Rosario and Beverly Leslie are the best of all the characters. I recommend all the seasons!

AWFUL DVD RELEASE OF A GREAT SHOW
The show itself deserves 4-5 stars, but this release of mostly edited episodes is a slap in the face to fans. Without realizing it, I bought this season, and like others on this page was furious at the many chopped up episodes on this disc. How come almost 60 year old I Love Lucy can present full episodes and extra scenes and commentary, but a recent show like this can't? Thank you Amazon for your liberal return policy. And shame on you LionsGate.

No subtitles
I love Will & Grace - or more accurately Karen Walker - but was disappointed that this box set didn't have subtitles. I have hearing difficulties and find it hard to catch Karens quips, my favourite parts.

Affairs and graces
Snappy, quirky and a barrel of laughs - watch out for all those celebs doing cameos, you're in for a treat. A little dated not since gay marriages are legal in the western world, but the feel-good is timeless

Good comedy
Never got bored of Will and Grace - always fresh humour and good acting - always have some serious parts to develop the story lines - none of the actors could ever be replaced
