The premiere episode of Will & Grace's eighth season will air live in the Eastern and Pacific timezones, NBC has announced.
The three-hour time difference between America's east and west coasts means that the regular cast - along with guest stars Eric Stotz and Alec Baldwin - will perform twice on the night.
Co-creator Max Mutchnick told Variety that going live will enable the writers to include "some very topical material."
The eighth and final season of Will & Grace is expected to start airing on NBC in September.
