Debbie Reynolds’ ‘Will & Grace’ episodes to air in WE TV marathon

Michelle Obama writes thank you note to President Barack Obama

To celebrate the life of late actress Debbie Reynolds, WE TV is airing a marathon of all the episodes of Will & Grace in which she appeared, the cable network announced Friday.

The six-hour marathon, airing Saturday, puts the spotlight on Reynolds’ role as Bobbi Adler, the mother of Debra Messing’s character. The late actress was nominated for an Emmy in 2000 for her guest-starring role.

In the wake of Reynolds’ death at 84 on Dec. 28 (one day after her daughter, Carrie Fisher, died at 60), the icon’s co-stars — including Debra Messing, Eric McCormack, and Sean Hayes — paid tribute on Twitter.

“So heartsick,” Messing tweeted. “Debbie went to be with Carrie. It’s such a devastating 1,2 punch. She was my ‘mom’ for years & I loved her dearly. A legend.”
