It took nearly an hour to tape this scene. | It was also at this time that the Salt Lake City affiliate (KSL) wrote the network saying they would not air Will & Grace period due to its sexual content.

Nurse Pittman: Oh, I don't drive. I keep taking the test over and over again, but I'm all... "This is hard." |
