Will & Grace never disappoints. Love all their seasons! If you haven't watched this show when it was current, highly recommend getting your hands on all the seasons and watching from the first episode!

Edited episodes no commetaries. Start the boycott

"What is going on with this set? WILL & GRACE has one of the slowest release schedules so you;'d think there would be plenty of time for adding bonus features (and assembling clips from this season's episodes into three-minute montages is nobody's idea of a bonus). Where are the commentaries by the entire cast? Its just cheap. Now, we find out that the episodes are syndicated versions with minutes trimmed from each episode? Who in their right mind wants to collect edited episodes (especially when the show is playing four times a day on TV in that same edited format). People who buy season TV sets are collectors and want COMPLETE episodes. There's no excuse for foisting episodes that were edited to make room for more commercials after it went into syndication. And anyone who thinks we should be happy for such shoddy treatment, i ask, "Would you by a movie on DVD that had a musical number, an action chase scene or some dialog cut from the version you saw in the theatre?""

"Season Five of "Will and Grace" sees Grace getting married and Karen on the streets after her divorce from Stan. The celebrity guest list was in high gear with Madonna, Kevin Bacon, Minnie Driver, Rip Torn, Macauley Culkin, Andy Garcia, Gene Wilder, Nicolette Sheridan, and Roseanna Arquette making appearances. Some very memorable episodes, especially the season finale, appear in season five. It was the last really good season before the series started going downhill.

"I have waited a year for this release, and was very upset to find out, as so many have already mentioned, that the episodes are not complete. At first I thought I was crazy, but then my favorite line (in the Madonna episode) was completely missing (where Jack says "as a gay man, I'm oddly attracted to you" and Madonna/Liz says "I know, I get that a lot"). What was Lion's Gate thinking? I think they really need to re-release the season, and allow people (who purchased this rip-off) free exchanges."
