They’ve been teasing us for the past few days – and last night we finally got to see the stars of Will & Grace reunite.
Alas, it wasn’t to record a new series, or a one-off TV movie.

Over the weekend, the sitcom’s four stars – Eric McCormack, Debra Messing, Sean Hayes and Megan Mullally – all shared pictures of them hanging out on a set with scripts in their hands, prompting frenzied fan speculation that a reunion was in the works.

And it turns out the get-together was a reunion – but t0 film a one-off, 10 minute skit mocking Donald Trump in the run-up to last night’s first presidential debate.
In the clip, we see Will and Grace having breakfast in the former’s New York apartment, chatting about Brangelina and 50 Shades Of Grey, before turning to the topic of Trump’s nomination for US president.
I think @DebraMessing is trying to out-Just-Jack me. 😜#VoteHoney #WillAndGrace pic.twitter.com/I1j6LSo5OB

Then Karen comes to join them, and – perhaps unsurprisingly – it turns out the boozy millionaire socialite is supporting Trump’s candidacy.
“Donnie is one of my oldest friends,” she says. “I helped pick out Melania.”

When flakey Jack enters the scene, he reveals that he’s an undecided voter, so Karen attempts to get him on her side by saying:
“Honey, if you don’t vote for Trumpy, there will be wars and monsoons and locusts and hordes of brown people pouring over our borders from every direction. I mean, it’s one thing if you’re sitting in the audience at Hamilton, but do you really want to see those people everywhere?”
Jack also says that he doesn’t like that Hillary “wears pants”, before Will wins him over by playing on his obsession with celebrities..
Oh, and yes, Rosario makes an appearance too…
The #WillAndGrace video is everything: Grace singing, a Rosario cameo & 100s of Karen-isms. A new season PLEASE? https://t.co/G1cUNea7RI
