    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      John Barrowman was up for the role of Will Truman, but didn't get it because the producers thought he was "too straight" to play a gay character. The role went to Eric McCormack instead. Ironically, Barrowman is gay in real life, while McCormack is straight.
    • Goofs
      The layout of Will's apartment, specifically his bedroom and the bathroom(s), don't match up with the layout of the hallway outside his door.
    • Quotes
      • Karen: [on hiring Jack to play a straight man in a commercial] No one in the world would believe you're straight. You're as gay as a clutchpurse on Tony night. You fell outta the gay tree, hitting every gay branch on the way down. And ya landed on a gay guy... and ya did 'em. No, no, honey, your gayness can be seen from space.
