The casts of Friends, Cheers, and Will & Grace will reunite on NBC
Your favorite sitcom may be off the air — but thanks to NBC, you'll get one last chance to see the whole gang get back together again. TVLine reports that the casts of numerous beloved TV sitcoms — including Friends, Cheers, and Will & Grace — will reunite in a two-hour NBC special scheduled to air in February.
The slate of TV reunions has been organized as part of a larger tribute designed to commemorate the 1,000th sitcom episode directed by industry legend James Burrows, a 10-time Emmy winner whose credits also include The Bob Newhart Show, Laverne & Shirley, and NewsRadio.
