I will never forget Wednesday August 9, 2017. It was the day my best friend @LeilaVelez and I went to the the very first taping of the revival of @WillAndGrace. It was always a dream to be in this show, but seeing as it ended 11 years prior it was only a pipe dream. (1)
The day of the taping I was so excited I would cry every few minutes. I just couldn’t believe that we were going to not only a taping of the revival, but the VERY FISRT ONE. Once we had gotten to the soundstage they were having us take commemorative photos before the show..(2)
Once inside it was maybe about 45 minutes until things started to roll. It started with a small retrospective clip show on the original series and then how the #VoteHoney video started, all leading up to the announcement of the revival. Then the wonderful announcer said...(3)
And here they are the cast of #WillandGrace! The screen cloth fell...and there they were. So beautiful and full of excitement! (Yes this is a gif from opening night!) I remember screaming like the happiest queen in the world 😂 (4)
As you all know the show was hilarious and just made the comeback even better! During the show I danced in the audience to “Single Ladies” by @Beyonce , even though I had mentioned I was a major @britneyspears Stan....(5)
After my dance, I was given a W&G OG logo T-shirt (which later was signed by @MaxMutchnick at @DebraMessing’s star ceremony) (6)
After the show we were pulled to the side to do an interview regarding our reactions to the episode and our love for the show. Obviously I was crying 😢😂😍 (7)
All in all it was one of the best experiences of my life. I also went to season 1 finale taping....but it wasn’t as magical and special as this one. As the show comes to a close tonight, I wanted to reflect on the happiness it’s brought me over the years. (8)
@WillAndGrace originally taught me to be proud of who I am as a gay man and how to live everyday as my authentic self. Thank you so much to the cast and crew for bringing so many hilarious and moving stories/characters to life for the world to enjoy! (9)
To Will, Grace, Jack, and Karen: Bon-voyage you beautiful crazy kids! Honey...we’ll miss ya! @DebraMessing @MeganMullally @SeanHayes @EricMcCormack @MaxMutchnick #WillAndGraceFarewell (10)
