    • Trivia
      John Barrowman was up for the role of Will Truman, but didn't get it because he was "too straight", and the role went to Eric McCormack. Barrowman is bisexual in real life, while McCormack is straight.
    • Goofs
      In the series, Will's apartment has a balcony, but the outside shot of the building shows no balconies. In fact, the actual building at 155 Riverside Drive has no balconies.
    • Quotes

      Karen: [on hiring Jack to play a straight man in a commercial] No one in the world would believe you're straight. You're as gay as a clutchpurse on Tony night. You fell outta the gay tree, hitting every gay branch on the way down. And ya landed on a gay guy... and ya did 'em. No, no, honey, your gayness can be seen from space.

    10/10
    10 for the old series, 1 for the reboot
    The old series was excellent. Groundbreaking for its time, not just because 2 lead characters were gay, but for its intelligent wit. Like Cheers before it, it raised the bar for sitcoms.

    But the reboot lost me after a week or two. I disliked it from the beginning, because they did away with everything from the great finale of the first run. Didn't like the retcon; wish they had figured out a way to do it while keeping everything from the first finale.
