Will & Grace is giving you more, honey!

With its razor-sharp wit intact and all four Emmy Award-winning actors back at the top of their game, one of the best NBC Must See comedies will return for an 18-episode third season. In addition, the network has increased the season two order, which will begin again next fall (2018), from 13 to 18 episodes.
Season one has been highlighted by an array of top guest stars, including Jennifer Lopez, Alec Baldwin, Minnie Driver, Ben Platt, Molly Shannon, Jane Lynch, Andrew Rannells and more. Will & Grace stars Eric McCormack, Debra Messing, Sean Hayes and Megan Mullally. Max Mutchnick and David Kohan, who co-created the series, write and executive produce. James Burrows directs and executive produces. Will & Grace is produced by Universal Television.
Lifetime continues to create thought-provoking storytelling that entertains and resonates with audiences with exciting new additions to its slate of movie and unscripted series that center on entertaining women. The Lifetime Feature, The Bad Seed, starring and directed by Rob Lowe, will debut Sunday, September 9, leading into Lifetime's newest scripted drama series, You. As the latest title in Lifetime’s premium scripted slate, You hails from hitmaker Greg Berlanti and Sera Gamble. Based on the Caroline Kepnes bestseller, You is the story of a young man in love, willing to do whatever it takes to get the girl.
