Will&Grace was a great show but Jack&Karen was a fun experience, in our humble observation. Of course Karen and Jack did not have a show, but they provided a lot of laughter to spice up W&G.
While observing reruns of Will & Grace, it was funny how we all missed Beverley Leslie and his “Well, Well, Well.....” entrance to every scene.
That guy was funny (and still is). We had hoped Sean Hayes would take the plunge with a spin-off. Although there were talks of Jack & Karen coming back to the screens, nothing more was reported but we are "hoping..., and singing....and...dancing....."LOL (Matt Damon's character singing with the choir on Will & Grace, competing with Jack...remember?...LOL). Anywhooo, moving on.

Beverley Leslie, played by the amazing Leslie Jordon, MUST be included in that return. But wait, he was killed off, or maybe he can be brought back to life in some twisted TV-plot. It’s crazy how the introduction of Beverley Leslie to Will Grace made Karen’s character even more lovable.
Leslie Jordan is a storyteller. While he’s best known for playing such characters as the adversarial Beverley Leslie on Will & Grace or the Tammy Wynette-obsessed Brother Boy in Sordid Lives, Jordan has performed several one-man shows and written a hilarious memoir, My Trip Down The Pink Carpet. Read more from Jim Halterman interview with Leslie Jordon for EDGE. Dated Tuesday Jul 7, 2009.
As a tribute to a character that has brought so much laughter, we decided to do a special Memorable Moments feature on Beverley Leslie by enjoying his most memorable lines from Will & Grace.

KAREN: [TO BEVERLEY] I thought your drink was a blackberry julep with a baby aspirin chaser.
BEVERLEY: I switched.
KAREN: Wait a minute. [TO ROSARIO] How do you know that?
ROSARIO: Because--
KAREN: Come on, come on, come on, come on.
ROSARIO: Because I'm good at my job. Quit busting my hump, lady.
[ROSARIO EXITS. KAREN GIVES BEVERLEY AN ICE COLD GLARE.]

[BEV SCREECHES AS KAREN PUSHES HIM TO THE FLOOR.]
[BEV JUMPS ON KAREN'S BACK.]
KAREN: Aah! Get off me, Tattoo. Aah! Get off of me!
[KAREN GRABS BEV'S HAIR AND HIS WIG COMES OFF.]
BEVERLEY: Aah! You bitch!
[BEV PULLS]
KAREN: Aah! You bitch!
