Go To

1* Many of these, but the best episodes in the whole series were the ones with Alec Baldwin as the shady and mysterious Malcolm. Words. Justice. Cannot.
2* Jack on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84lQ071oZr4 Caffeine]]
3* Will and Grace's voicemail from "My Uncle The Car":
4-->'''Both:''' (''to the tune of The Brady Bunch'') ''Here's the story of a lovely lady!''\
5'''Grace:''' That's me!\
6'''Both:''' ''Who is loving with a very lovely girl!''\
7'''Will:''' That's me!\
8'''Both:''' Leave a message!
9** Along with Will's subsequent reaction:
10-->'''Will:''' I hate us so hard right now.
11* The gang astounded that, somehow, Jack has yet to come out to his mother.
12-->'''Grace''': Jack, on some level, your mother must know you're gay. I mean...has she ''met'' you?
13-->'''Karen''': Good god, what is the woman, headless?!
14* The wedding episode where Creator/TimCurry guest stars is just plain hilarious. Especially when he kisses Creator/JohnCleese on the lips and flirts with the bride.
15** Also-
16--->'''Tim Curry:''' It's too bad our father isn't alive to see this.
17--->'''Creator/JohnCleese:''' What?
18--->'''Tim Curry:''' Oh, damn, I knew I forgot something...
19** "We Finsters have a long-standing family tradition of inviting the brother into the wedding bed. Now, now, I'm just checking to see if you think that's weird. Show of hands, how many of you-(Gets pushed off stage by John Cleese)"
20** "It's so touching that you're wearing Mother's suit on your wedding day."
21* Grace takes legal action against Will's law firm for an interior design job they refused to pay for. It comes down to an arbitration session but Grace keeps throwing in courtroom jargon inappropriately:
22-->'''Mr. Buhl''': Miss Adler, though it's clear you know a lot of legal terms, you've yet to use a single one of them properly.
23-->'''Grace''': May I approach the bench?
24-->'''Mr. Buhl''': You'd have to build one first.
25* " What you worry about Karen, they might find blood in your alcohol?"
26* "It's Beelzebooze!"
27* One episode features Edward, Karen's Pastry Chef, who ends up having sex with Will and Karen.
28--> '''Edward''': I don't believe in gay or straight. I refuse to limit pleasure. I like to think of myself as pansexual.
29--> '''Karen''': Oh my God, he's been humping my pans.
30** At one point (after Karen has had a makeout session with Edward), Will notices the flour handprints on the seat of her skirt.
31---> '''Will''': ''Please'' tell me a school teacher just helped you over a fence.
32* Will and Grace decide to have a baby. Jack and Karen think they're gonna do it the old fashioned way and prepare a bed for them. And they think they can watch.
33-->'''Jack''': Yay! This is gonna be so disgusting!
34* '''Grace''': (about Karen) We've gotta keep looking for her. She's out there all alone, the city's full of criminals and murderers. She could hurt one of them.
35* "Cheaters, Part II": Will has invited his father George over for dinner and George has brought over his mistress Tina. Despite this, Will, George and Tina all pretend that the situation is not awkward and inappropriate at all, which is clearly uncomfortable and frustrating for Grace. Eventually, the conversation shifts to weather and this is when Grace really breaks down.
36-->'''Grace''': But it's...it's never too hot to rain. I remember this one summer day... The weather was perfect. Or at least we thought it was perfect. But then this hot front came in from the west. (''voice breaks'') This hot skinny front... (''tearfully'') [[{{Metaphorgotten}} And it made it rain. And we couldn't ride our bicycles...And nothing was ever good ever again!]]
37
38-->'''Tina''': That really is bad weather!
39
40-->'''Will''': Grace...
41
42-->'''Grace''': (''Sobbing'') I'm so confused! I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone and all the other people are pigs... and I'm the pretty one, but everyone thinks I'm ugly, because they're all pigs and they think pigs are pretty!
43
44-->'''Tina''': I like the one with Burgess Meredith when he broke his glasses.
45
46-->'''George''': Yeah, he was The Penguin, too. Remember? And you know where penguins live, it's really cold.
47
48-->'''Grace''': [[RageBreakingPoint I cannot do this anymore! I am sorry! There is a problem in this room that nobody's talking about!]]
49
50-->'''Tina''': Ok! Ok, ok... I'll say it. [[ComicallyMissingThePoint You've got a boob coming out.]]
51
52-->'''Grace''': I have got to get out of this room... Right now.
53
54* One ChristmasEpisode where the gang invite hotel personnel to their room and sing carols just to annoy them.
55** I remember the reason being that they wanted to go caroling but were too lazy to actually get up and do it. The closing scene of the episode involved all of them following some poor sod out the door as they sang. The icing on the cake was Leo hiking his leg in the air.
56* Will, Grace and Sandra Bernhardt sing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gsmjotdlsjk&ab_channel=RichardPacelli Midnight Train To Georgia]].
57-->'''Grace''': ''I've got to go! I've got to go! I've got to go!''
58* Jack and Will sing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsUS4vZh8Mw&ab_channel=TheCupCakie Lady Marmalade]].
59* Karen helping Jack at the spelling bee (Eee a mouse, Eee!)
60* Will and Jack throw a bachelor party for one of their straight friends complete with stripper.
61-->'''Will''': Why aren't they excited?
62-->'''Jack''': You're supposed to say woo-hoo.
63-->'''Will''': Woo-hoo!
64* Will's surprising fanboy-ism to Music/JenniferLopez.
65-->''"Waiting For Tonight!"''
66* Jack & Grace sleeping in the limo of the now homeless Karen. She was sleeping in between them.
67-->'''Karen''': Jack, that better be your penis. (turns to the other side) Grace, that better be your penis!
68* The gang delivers a eulogy at Stan's funeral.
69-->'''Grace''': He was a great man.
70-->'''Will''': He was a big man.
71-->'''Jack''': He was a fat man.
72* Will and Jack walk into a place they are not sure is a gay bar, until Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" starts playing.
73* Grace's water bra bursting, causing water to spray out of both breasts.
74-->'''Will''': I know I haven't been with a woman in a while but I'm pretty sure they're not supposed to do that.
75* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hc_rqRQTryw&ab_channel=JoeAutuoro Well, I'll need a little money from the ATM...]]
76* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSLuffJAT44 Grace sings "Mandy"]].
77* '''ALL''' of Karen's digs at Beverly Leslie, mostly about his Transparent Closet and diminutive stature.
78** Especially funny is when Leslie accuses Karen of outing him at a Republican fundraiser. Karen acts offended, claiming it was a misunderstanding. Cue JumpCut to flashback.
79---> '''Karen''': (over loudspeaker) [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-eT8FfTMyw Attention, Republicans:]] Beverly Leslie is a homosexual.
80* Music/BritneySpears episode, Britney Spears episode is hysterical (Buy Buy Baby) "Eat it Snort It Or Ride It baby"
81** "[=AAaAAaahh=]...BITCH, GET OUT OF HERE . YOU SPILLED MY SKITTLES!!!"
82** "My real name is Pegg and I'm a hard core lesbian I'm into leather play, butch black girls, skunking, pulling the blinds and poodle balling. Whatever you got I'll eat it, snort it, or ride it baby
83* Jack lecturing ''Music/{{Cher}}'' (who he thinks is a drag queen) on how to act like Cher.
84** It's not until Cher slaps him, a la ''Film/{{Moonstruck}}'' - "Snap out of it!" - that Jack realizes it's really her.
85* Jack & Karen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COD9wVXBcWU&ab_channel=FrostGel sing Mr. Sandman]].
86* Jack gets Karen hired to appear with him filming an anti-sexual harassment video. The scene he does involves him putting his tongue in her ear, which she likes so much it ruins all the takes. When the scene gets scrapped, he looks at her and she's lying on a desk smoking a cigarette.
87* The season 9 trailer. So many moments.
88** It starts meta, with Will being happy that the head of NBC is giving their show back.
89** Apparently Karen's been sleeping on a couch on set for 10 years for a little "disco nap". "Guess I really needed the sleep."
90** Jack showing the apartment to a prospective buyer.
91* Will and Grace playing ''Heads Up'' in the first episode of season 9.
92* When decorating the Oval Office for UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump, Grace tests a fabric sample against a Cheeto.
93** After she gets fired from the job, she still leaves something behind -- a trucker hat that reads "Make America Gay Again".
94* Karen, who supported Trump, has apparently taken to shouting "Lock her up!" whenever Grace wears an outfit she doesn't like.
95* Grace looks inside a box on Trump's desk to find an English-Russian dictionary and a fidget spinner.
96* The pillow fight in the Oval Office.
97* Lorraine turns up at [[spoiler:Rosario's funeral]], and the tension and verbal catfight between her and Karen is so intense, Will and Grace can't even stand!
98-->'''Lorraine:''' [[DoubleEntendre I heard as soon as I came.]]
99** Karen insists that she and Lorraine will not have a threeway [[NoodleIncident again]].
100-->'''Karen:''' ''(to Lorraine)'' Do you know how humiliating it was for me to have to finish myself off [[{{Squick}} in front of]] [[ParentalIncest your father]]?!\
101''(Grace almost falls off of the pew she and Will are sitting on, her [[NoJustNoReaction face]] likely mirroring that of the audience.)''
102* From the Season 9 ChristmasEpisode "A Gay Olde Christmas":
103** Grace as Fanny in 1912 raves about a new food concoction. "Two chocolate biscuits with cream in between. They're called 'Ow-reeohs'."
104*** Her reaction when she tries one dunked in milk. She practically falls off her chair.
105** Grace as Carolyne on Grace as Fanny's dress. "[[XCalledTheyWantTheirYBack 1880 called, they want their drapes back.]]"
106** Jack as John Patrick's barrage of {{Unusual Euphemism}}s for Jack as William being gay.
107* In "Friends and Lover", Jack and Karen get infected by a commercial EarWorm and resort to slapping it out of each other. It doesn't work.
108* Also from "Friends and Lover", Jackson Boudreaux gives Will and Grace some Hopi bread made with a small amount of snake venom. Grace spits hers into her purse; Will tries the same, but Grace tells him to use something else.
109** In TheStinger, Jackson is in the hospital, calling his publisher to change the recipe for the Hopi bread.
110* Jack anticipating what everyone will say when he barges in at the beginning of "There's Something About Larry".
111* Val has her pain and pleasure centers mixed up, so when she's moaning in pain it sounds like an ImmodestOrgasm.
112-->'''Jack:''' Now I want to get hit by a car.
113* Karen helping Jack be a Lyft driver and laughing at the practice script.
114-->'''Karen:''' Hello, Lyft driver, can you take me to the supermarket? [giggles uncontrollably] How can people say this with a straight face?
115* Grace joining Larry in singing "Far From The Home I Love" from ''Theatre/FiddlerOnTheRoof'', despite Will warning her not to.
116* Karen being on a scavenger hunt with Ivanka Trump. She mentions that monkeys are worth 1000 points while a live Kardashian sister is only 800.
117* This exchange.
118-->'''Grace:''' Did you just steal a police badge?\
119'''Karen:''' Did you eat a whole platter of mini sliders?\
120'''Grace:''' I'll keep your secret if you keep mine.
121* Will making friends with a couple of teenage girls at a baby shower, and eventually acting just like one.
122* Karen and Malcolm miming all the sex acts they won't do to each other.
123** Later, they give each other a goodbye kiss, using Smithy as a proxy.
124-->'''Smithy:''' Hashtag Me Too.
125* Jack channeling Rosario.
126* Will calls Karen to give him tips on how to do phone sex. In the middle of the demonstration, Will drops his phone between the couch cushions, and Karen takes his groans and grunts struggling to find it as him getting into it.
127** Later, when talking to [=McCoy=].
128--->'''[=McCoy=]:''' ''[baffled]'' You had phone sex with Karen?\
129'''Will:''' It wasn't consensual.
130* Jack diving down the building's garbage chute after his Cher Barbie doll. Most of the time he is shown sliding face first screaming in terror, except for one brief shot where he's lying back with a smile on his face.
131* Grace having [[spoiler:three prospective fathers for her unborn child]] reminds Karen of the plot of ''Theatre/MammaMia'', and she starts singing the title song. Grace, who at first sounds annoyed, quickly joins in, and on the following EstablishingShot, the windows in the building are turning on and off to the music.
132* Jack turns out to be an excellent basketball player due to having practiced for an audition for ''Film/HighSchoolMusical''. He didn't get the part, largely due to the fact that it was a ''high-school'' production and he wasn't a student.
133* Will is playing catch with Jack [[spoiler:as practice for when Will becomes a father]] and throws the basketball so hard it breaks Jack's pinky finger. Jack sees it and faints. Then comes to and thinks it was AllJustADream, until he sees the finger and faints again. Then comes to again and is relieved to see his hand is fine, only to then see the ''right'' hand and faint [[RuleOfThree a third time]].
134* Karen getting a DNA sample from a handsome man by kissing him and then swabbing her own mouth.
135* Karen keeps secret money stashes in Grace’s office, including one that is released from a pipe by a button behind a painting. Grace pushes the button, but all that comes out is a note that reads “I hate what you’re wearing.”
136* Will tricking Jack into shaving his head.
137* "No one humiliates Karen Walker without her permission and a {{safe word}}!"
138* Karen is giving a pep talk to the players of a baseball team she just bought. After she’s done, it’s revealed that the players are in the showers naked, their manhoods covered by [[SceneryCensor bats and benches]].
139-->'''Player:''' Can we put our clothes on now?\
140'''Karen:''' [after chuckling] No.
141* Grace finds an article about a 72-year-old woman giving birth, and is foolish enough to click on the video link.
142-->'''Grace:''' It's like the worst episode of ''Series/TheGoldenGirls''!
143* Karen's plan to improve her new baseball team includes bedazzled uniforms (even the protective cups) and mandatory drug testing - which she amends to mandatory drug ''taking''.
144* Jack and Karen whisper fighting while shooting an ASMRVideo.
145* Karen freaking out over having to fly commercial... in ''coach''.
146** She apparently believes there is nothing behind the first class curtain except sky.
147** "They shrank the vodka. THEY SHRANK THE VODKA!"
148* "We Love Lucy": However you feel about the ''Will and Grace'' cast recreating scenes from ''Series/ILoveLucy'', there are a few original touches.
149** When Karen plays Lucy in the wine vat sketch from "Lucy's Italian Movie", the Italian woman is none other than Beverly Leslie, saying an Italian version of his CatchPhrase. ("Vene, vene, vene!")
150** While Will is Ricky in all the recreations, the other three take turns playing Lucy, Fred and Ethel. That means that Jack gets to be both Lucy and Ethel, and Karen gets to be Fred.
151* "It's Time", the second series finale:
152** There's a RunningGag of the painting at Will's apartment being mistaken for a portrait of Will. Will's explanation of what it really is ends up describing him in a non-flattering way.
153** The surprise appearance of [[spoiler:Lorraine]] as a cabbie.
154** Everyone is on the Statue of Liberty's torch when Jack learns that the part he's been understudying for is open. He walks around the torch and instantly comes out fully dressed in costume!
155*** All the dancing on stage, along with him climbing up the stairs to the torch, cause Jack's legs to give out during the final bow, so he has to drag himself behind one of the other performers.
156* After [[Creator/JeffGoldblum Jeff Goldblum]] threatens Beverly Leslie on Karen's behalf, she replies: "Honey, no one's ever offered to dismember a dwarf and make jewelry out of him for me before!"
