...openness, sophistication and realism, sometimes with the help of consultants; GLAAD worked with McCormack to refine Will after the show's pilot. ("No gay man had hair like Will's, really long in the back," jokes Seomin. "He looked like Jerry Seinfeld.") Certainly much of the biting banter and in-jokes of W&G--"I haven't seen a kiss that uncomfortable since Richard Gere and Jodie Foster in Sommersby"--would be unimaginable in the era of Three's Company's fairy jokes.

But he's done little more with it yet than find excuses to get his babe-licious P.I.s into halter tops and hooker outfits, a setup spiced up with Moonlighting-style banter between Gina Gershon and Paula Marshall. Gershon's sneering, sex-as-a-weapon swagger is an asset, but the product so far is predictable, sometimes amusing eye candy...
