burntcopperSomeone mentioned the quote Mr. Barrowman gives about being rejected for Will and Grace because he was 'too straight' again.
I did like Eric McCormack as Will, despite his lack of a sex life etc. However, I'm now wondering what that show would've been like if JB had got the role. Just for starters, the tone of the show would've been entirely different. Innuendo levels up to *here* for starters. Have images of Jack, Karen and JB as Will wreaking havoc something chronic and being involved in the three-way bitchfests. Grace being ignored because she could not compete with the fabulosity of the other three. And...um... knowing JB's propensity for having chemistry with everything, which includes inanimate objects, you'd then have the fandom for it. The fic. The shipper wars. People protesting that Will had too much chemistry with Grace to be truly gay. The Will/Jack OTP-ers.
I'm scaring myself now. Must. Stop.
And now I'm off to go see JB filming the Friday Night Project.
