Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

As the fourth season of NBC's award-winning comedy begins, Will (Eric McCormack) has just returned from France--alone--while Grace (Debra Messing) is still seeing Nathan (Woody Harrelson). Meanwhile, Jack (Sean Hayes) is adjusting to fatherhood of newfound preteen son Elliot (Sky High's Michael Angarano), while Karen (Megan Mullally) remains, well, Karen. Alas, in "Crouching Father, Hidden Husband," the authorities finally catch up with her (never seen) tax-evading hubbie Stan and toss him in the clink. Grace's relationship with Nathan, on the other hand, continues to blossom until talk turns to marriage in "The Rules of Engagement."

Guest stars include Parker Posey as Jack's stylish supervisor ("Loose Lips Sinks Relationships," "Jingle Balls"), Matt Damon as a closeted choral singer ("A Chorus Lie"), Glenn Close as an eccentric photographer ("Hocus Focus"), and her former co-star Michael Douglas ("Fagel Attraction") as a "detective" with the hots for Will. There are also recurring guests, like Debbie Reynolds as Grace's drama queen mother ("Moveable Feast," a double-length episode), director Sydney Pollack as Will's wayward father ("Cheatin' Trouble Blues"), and Jack’s favorite diva, Cher, as herself ("A.I.: Artificial Insemination," the season finale). By the end of season four, Will and Grace will still be single, Karen’s husband will still be incarcerated (but at least she'll have maid Rosario to keep her company), and Jack will still be, as he used to say, "Just Jack!" As always, the year will end with a cliffhanger as Will and Grace decide to have a baby together. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

4.0 out of 5 stars this is a great show but the dvds are lacking, August 18, 2005

By	Adam C. Bryant "jesty" (Midlothian, VA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

First off, season four is perhaps the best season of the show period. The plotlines were creative, the jokes were incredibly smart, the acting was amazing, and the show was just really in it's sitcom niche. That said, these DVD sets are taking way too long to come out and then are quite expensive for the lack of features on them. I for one do not even consider the "themed featurettes" a special feature as they're pretty much a clip show. It is nice to see the inclusion of outtakes, but I'd much rather see some behind the scenes stuff! I keep hoping that with each DVD release we'll see things getting better, but it's just not happening. However, this season's DVD set is MUCH better than season 3, except for the menu screens.
