    I remember how much I loved this show with Gregory Hines in it (I still love this show but Gregory's comedic timing was on point which added a layer of awesomeness to the cast). He was a great talent in this show (as well as in movies). It is a shame that we lost someone so talented who added so much positivity into this world.

    Will&Grace in peak form. Perfect writing, perfect character, perfect set-up where a guest actor actually interacts with all four of them, showing them in a new light. And it all works like a dream cause Hines understood the assignment. You're adding to the regular cast, not promoting yourself and pointlessly trying to steal a scene. Demi, Matt, Ellen, Madonna... They were all cool, but they were THEMSELVES, almost like guest appearing on SNL... Gregory Hines IS Ben Doucette here!

You just needed Jack to pay the seed. Brilliant. Made us kept turning in each week to see when the payoff was going to be.
