It is officially the season of comebacks and revivals. With the massive success of "Gilmore Girls" on Netflix, it seems that more '90s to early aughts shows are making their way back on television (or streaming). The latest addition is the widely popular "Will and Grace," which starred Debra Messing and Eric McCormack as the titular characters. NBC reportedly ordered revival series according to one star on the show, and fans are hoping that the news is legit.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, NBC is keeping mum about the possibility that they ordered revival series for "Will and Grace." However, Leslie Jordan, who played Beverly Leslie on the show, let slip that the show is indeed coming back. In a radio interview with KPBS, he shared that NBC has ordered 10 episodes of "Will and Grace" revival series. It makes fans wonder if the election video that Eric McCormack, Debra Messing, Megan Mullally, and Sean Hayes created back in October was to test the waters among TV fans.

The award-winning "Will and Grace" earned 16 Emmy Awards from their 83 nominations across eight seasons. Each of the four main stars of the show were awarded an Emmy for their work, and yet is still not streaming on Netflix or other streaming services. Things might change, however, as Mullaly hinted at the return of the show to NBC. According to Entertainment Weekly, Mullaly and the rest of the cast spent New Year's Day together, further fueling talk about a reunion.

Just two months ago, the stars of "Will and Grace" reunited to shoot an election video urging everyone to go out and vote. The video was the brainchild of show creator Max Mutchnick, who himself brought back the sets from Emerson College in Boston to the show's studio in order to film. Since it was published, the viral video has earned close to 6.7 million views on YouTube.
