Megan Mullally thanks Ellen DeGeneres for her career as she chats to her about “Will & Grace” during an appearance on Thursday’s “Ellen DeGeneres Show”.
Mullally says she hasn’t been able to leave the house until now after her mother’s recent passing, explaining how she’d managed to “Marie Kondo” every room during that time.
She then reveals how the “Will & Grace” cast will be referencing DeGeneres in Thursday’s episode.
