The eighth and final season of iWill Grace/i begins with a live episode and ends with a bittersweet finale that gives the disgruntled characters some hard-earned closure. At its heart, the sitcom isn't about a gay man and his best friend. It's about two friends who need each other as much as they think they do, who are unable to break away from each other--even if that means putting their relationships with others at risk. As selfish as the characters on iSeinfeld/i and as chatty as the ones on iFriends/i, Will (Eric McCormack), Grace (Debra Messing), Jack (Sean Hayes), and Karen (Megan Mullaly) are as obnoxious as they are lovable. And the actors who play them share warm chemistry, which makes even the meanest digs come across as acceptable. This final season ends with each of the main characters partnered up with their true loves; and it feels right, even if it's not what viewers may be expecting. Two of the 23 episodes--which originally aired during the 2005-2006 season on NBC--are live. While it's fun to watch the actors occasionally flub their lines or laugh at each other's antics, the episodes are not the strongest of the bunch. p The final season actually gets off to an uneven start before picking up steam about a third of the way in. Featured guest stars include a hilarious Alec Baldwin reprising his role as secret agent Malcolm, who has fallen in love with Karen. He utters sweet nothings to her such as, "When I kill myself, it's going to be for real. And I'm taking you with me." Other high-profile guest stars includes Taye Diggs as a hot romantic interest for Will, Britney Spears as Jack's on-air nemesis, Wanda Sykes as a cosmetic counter girl who Karen convinces to be her baby mama, and Daryl Hall John Oates as, well, Oates Hall (as they've renamed themselves). There is a wedding, an annulment, at least two children born to the primary four and the possibility of a happily ever after scenario. The show ended at a good time: not quite at its peak but at least a season or two before you just wouldn't care anymore. But here, there are many moments that tug at your heart or make you laugh out loud. In one vignette, Karen looks on incredulously as Grace allows herself to be bullied into hiring an inept Iranian woman who uses her ethnicity to intimidate all around her. She's also as useless as Karen in getting anything done to help her boss. Tsk-tsking Grace's hiring decision after the new hiree destroys some of Grace's interior designs, Karen says, "I was just sitting there cleaning my gun thinking, 'This is an office!'" It's not the line she says that makes it so funny, but Mullaly's perfect delivery. Like the other cast members, she knows her character so well that she breathes life into even the simplest lines. i--Jae-Ha Kim/i

 LOVE IT!!! January 7, 2009
One of the best sitcoms ever finally closes after eight wonderful years. Hats off to the writers of this show, who made a sensitive subject of homosexuality funny yet realistic.
 Will and Grace Season 8 December 14, 2008
Funny as ever! I was sad to see the series end. It was like saying goodbye to a group of close friends. (corny I know..but true)
 very very bad seller November 30, 2008
The product has not been received - the seller will not contact me. I have filed a claim with Amazon and have not had any feed back from them. Very, Very unhappy customer. Will never use this service again. I want a full refund. Michelle
AMAZING!! November 12, 2008
I love Will and Grace! The price was fantastic. You can't find it cheaper new.
 No the best season November 4, 2008
This was a great show, but not this season, I felt it was a little boring and it didn't have the hillarious comments of Karen an Rosario (which was sick so she didn't appear in all the episodes) I'm glad the series is over, before all fans stopped seeing it.
