Hi, Sean. Am I still the number two? Oh. How are you? I'm good. How are you? It's good to see you. On the way here,
to the NBC studio-- No. Because I didn't
look at my sheet. I was like, I know
where my I'm going. And the guy's like, she
left about two years ago, Uh-huh. I was like, I've been
out of it for a while. Oh, no! You went to the wrong studio? I did. That's a shame. Is this the right one? This is-- yes. Oh, OK. Yes. Now you are at the right one. OK. How are you? I miss you. And you haven't been on
the show in four years. I know. How come? I have been preparing
for this interview. Oh. I love people who prepare. For four years. That's good. It better be good. I know. My god. [LAUGHTER] [APPLAUSE] It gets applause. Thank you. I won't go there. The last time I saw you,
we were at a restaurant. And god, you're hilarious. [LAUGHS] OK, so this
is what happened. We were in a restaurant. And if you can picture-- oh,
actually this is perfect. I was sitting with
a group of friends, and you and Portia walked in. And there's this big
glass, piece of glass right here, like this. And I'm sitting there talking. Well, we'll do it this
way because I was-- No, you were facing me. Right. Right. All right. Then we'll do it that way. [LAUGHTER] So we're sitting there. I'm talking to my friend. You walk in. You sit down. So Portia's sitting
right next to me. But we're facing each other. [BABBLING] I'm like, oh! And we both go, oh, my god! But we can't really
hear each other. So we're talking
through the glass. So of course, 10
minutes of bits. I'm like, I'm in jail. And you're like,
[MAKES RASPBERRY] on the window. And we're making
each other laugh. And then it goes on and on. And then the
awkwardness after you're done with that because we
weren't sitting together. Right. So then it's like, OK. [LAUGHS AWKWARDLY] Yeah. Wasn't that wonderful
and awkward? Yeah. It was-- it's a
great restaurant. But there's an
outside that we were-- Oh, evidently I didn't
explain it well enough. [LAUGHTER] Keep going. This isn't what the four
years prepared me for, but. Let's talk about you. We got a lot. Yeah. Let's talk about you. We got a lot to cover. OK. Tell me about the musical
Promises, Promises. Yeah, Promises, Promises
is based on the movie The Apartment, which won Best
Picture in the '60s with-- see, now I'm nervous-- with
Shirley MacLaine and Jack Lemmon. And I'm playing the
Shirley MacLaine part. No. I'm playing the
Jack Lemmon part. And Kristin Chenoweth is playing
the Shirley MacLaine part. It's about a guy kind
of making his way up in the corporate
world and balancing his desire for this
girl that he loves and this corporation that
he's trying to climb up. And you sing a lot. I'm not a singer. But I try to carry a tune. So, yeah. No, so then I'm
moving to New York. And I have to bring up the
show Hoarders really fast. Yes. I'm obsessed with
the show Hoarders. Anybody? Yes. [APPLAUSE] I don't know. Yeah, especially on TV,
that and Intervention. But Hoarders-- so while I was
packing to move to New York, I had three piles-- LA, New York, and charity. So you're moving to New York. I moved to New York,
otherwise I wouldn't be able to do the Broadway show. Right. It's there. I could do it in my yard. Yeah. But Broadway is there. Right. So I kind of have to go there. Yes. You've gotten sarcastic
over four years. Anyway. [LAUGHTER] So you're separating the piles. So I'm separating-- [LAUGHS]
you're so good at this. I'm separating the piles. And I have a fear of becoming
a hoarder now because of the show. It's like-- and
so I'm throwing-- I'm putting stuff in piles. And I go, oh, this
is really cute. My mom gave me
this two years ago. Throw it away! Throw it away. I feel like-- are you like that? No. I do get rid of-- Because of the show? We watched a Hoarders last
night, as a matter of fact. And on Portia's side
in the bathroom, she opened the drawer. And I was like, oh, my god,
you're a hoarder of lotions. She has lotions and makeup. And it is just-- it's crazy. And I was like, throw that away. There's only that much left. She goes, no, that's going
to be good for a while. All right. Then what we'll do
is we'll go to break. Well, that's what happens. We'll take a commercial break. OK. I know. You haven't been on for a while. Go on. That's a pointer. Oh, it's a pointer. And then we'll talk
about if there's going to be a Will and
Grace spinoff or a movie or a continuation or
something like that. That's a tease. We'll be right back. We're back with Sean Hayes. And what is going on
with Will and Grace? Will there be a movie or
another spinoff or what? No. [LAUGHTER] It was a great run. But time to do other things. Right. It was a great show--
really, really great show. [APPLAUSE, CHEERING] You know what I've
always wondered about you is, do you enjoy-- like when you're
home alone, are you able to just focus on a hobby
and just kind of do things to quiet your mind? No. No. Why, because I talk really fast? No. Oh. No. I play piano. You do play piano? Yeah, I studied piano as a kid. I try to do that. And I try to-- oh, what's this one? I didn't know what
we were doing. We were just talking. Yeah. No, we're totally talking. Yeah. Do you play cards? I do play cards. I like poker. I like-- That's not important
what cards you play. OK. Do you-- [LAUGHTER] You have dogs, not cats, right? I have two dogs. One's Maddy. One's Buzz,
Australian shepherds. Yeah, it's good
because cats, I find, sometimes if you set
something up on a table, if you have a hobby and
you're doing something, a cat'll jump up
and ruin everything. But dogs don't jump on tables. So do you ever-- They hop. Yeah. They hop. You ever have something
going on on a table that you don't want
to get messed up like you're working on? Not like a ship in a
bottle, but like something-- what would you do on
a table that you're-- Like, a puzzle? What kind, though? A jigsaw puzzle. [CHEERING, APPLAUSE] You’re all getting
a Boombox. [CHEERING, APPLAUSE] Thanks to our guest, Sean.
