why will & grace

This article attempts to explain why Will & Grace received the same number of Emmy nominations as Desperate Housewives despite being "past its prime." Unfortunately, the writer just asks the stars (Eric McCormack) and the creators (Kohan & Mutchnick), who would never say "yeah, we totally sucked this year! isn't it funny we got nominated?" (I haven't watched this year, so I don't know if it sucked.) Anyway, their contention is mostly that a) the show is still good, and b)lots of famous people like it. And famous people are so in touch with what the American public likes! Right.
