Missed last night's live season-eight premiere of Will&Grace? Never fear, I have distilled the (East-Coast-feed) parts that are worth watching down to about five minutes. Come to think of it, it's probably the only truly watchable five minutes of W&G in the past three years or so.
Mostly, what's involved is a series of scenes in which Debra Messing (Grace) and Sean Hayes (Jack) try not to completely crack up on camera.
Alec Baldwin (guest starring as "Malcolm") also has a couple of memorable moments toward the beginning and the end, including an up-to-the-minute reference that practically shouted, "We're live, see? We're talking about Tom DeLay!"
[Watch video – 13.2mb, 5:08, WMV format – with humblest apologies to ye of little bandwidth]

UPDATE: Hello, Slate readers! Thanks for the link, Surfer Girl.
UPADTE (2): Buon giorno, lettori di Libero!
Thanks. It slipped my mind. I watch it now just out of fatigued loyalty. Once they played out that wretched plot about Will's cop boyfriend (for whom we've waited for friggin ever) turning out to be a pathetic kleptomaniac, I was done. Max Muchnick is cute as hell, but I'd like to smack him one for that. I've tried not to ask too much of a mainstream show like W&G, but I've pretty well given up.
