Takin' A Quick Break

Thought I'd take a few minutes to review Will & Grace Season 1 while I take my LSAT study break...

Show: Will & Grace
Season: 1
Format: DVD
Price: $19.99 on sale at Best Buy
Number of Episodes: 22

I'll be honest, I picked this one up because the price was low and I needed a sitcom to watch. I was pleasantly surprised by the high quality of the dialog, but it was hard to make me as attached to the characters as I would have liked. I can understand why this show followed Friends, as the show needed the lead in of a more popular sitcom to develop a mainstream fanbase. It's an excellent show, very well written, but it lacks the cliffhangers that most season one shows have - although it does introduce us to Karen's maid, which is very funny.

There are a couple of episdoes of the first season that merit an A, however the season as a whole is probably a C+ or B-. I'm finding it hard to want to continue watching to the second season, but we'll see what happens.
