If you remember back to 2008, the landscape of superhero movies was very different than what we see today. We had three Spider-Man films, three X-Men films, but no Dark Knight — it was released late 2008 — however, 2008 was also the year that Disney kicked off the entire MCU back with #IronMan.

Crafting a season finale is no easy feat, and while the likes of The Sopranos literally cut to black, Breaking Bad broke our hearts, and Lost left us feeling a little like its namesake, NBC's Will & Grace seemed to get it right. Coming to an end in 2006 with a sickly sweet swansong, there was no reason to come back to our New York neurotics — until now. Some 11 years after we waved goodbye to our dysfunctional friends, the network is bringing back Will & Grace for a new run of 10 episodes.

It's Grim Up North: John Bradley Reveals Why He Hates Starring On 'Game Of Thrones'
Most actors have some idea of what their dream job would be, and from playing Tom Cruise's butt double to Lifeless Corpse No. 2 on an episode of CSI, it is a slippery slope to the top.
