Will & Grace dream team David Kohan and Max Mutchnick will work together on to make an ABC-aired sitcom loosely based on their gay guy, straight guy friendship. The fag/stag show has been in the works for quite some time and previous reports had it based at CBS with Brian Austin Green playing the gay. ABC alleges this is an entirely new project based on the exact same premise. [Reuters]

How much do you want to bet that the gay guy will be the conservative who just wants to settle down and marry, while the straight guy is the irresponsible whore? Yawn.

It’s the Odd Couple. How can anyone claim this is an original idea???

Didn’t CBS already fail at it with Some of My Best Friends?
It’s Cashmere Mafia vs. Lipstick Jungle all over again.
And Neil Simon never came right out and said that Felix Unger was gay, by the way.
