We finally know exactly when one of the most anticipated TV revivals will be premiering on NBC.

"Will & Grace" is returning for a 12-episode run this fall. Original stars Debra Messing, Eric McCormack, Megan Mullally and Sean Hayes are all reprising their roles.

On Monday, McCormack released a poster for the revival on Twitter. And if that martini in Karen's hand is anything to go by, little has changed.

But we're not quite sure how NBC is going to rewrite the series' ending. "Will & Grace" ended its initial eight-season run with the title characters having a decadeslong falling out before finally reuniting when their kids go to college in 2026.

It's possible the show will just conveniently forget that ending — which is what happened with the Hillary Clinton campaign video the cast filmed in 2016.

Other notable nostalgic TV shows in the works include "Star Trek Discovery" on CBS, "Dynasty" on the CW, "Twin Peaks" on Showtime and "The Magic School Bus Rides Again" on Netflix.
