This handout photo provided by the Smithsonian National Museum of American History shows production scripts and press materials from NBCs Will & Grace program, 2000-2006. Max Mutchnick and David Kohan, the creative power behind the hit situation comedy, intentionally presented LGBT characters who were not stereotyped, caricatured, or demeaned.
