Now that's an intriguing idea.
Ever since the 2006 series finale of "Will and Grace," rumors about a Jack and Karen spinoff have repeatedly surfaced now and again. Of course, it seems unlikely given Megan Mullally's busy schedule since her pivotal role as Karen Walker.
The singer/actress had her own talk show after "Will & Grace" before moving on to the Mel Brooks musical "Young Frankenstein." From then on, fans of her television spotted her on the third season of "30 Rock" and the short-lived sitcom "In the Motherhood." Most recently, Mullally starred alongside fellow television stars Kelsey Grammer ("Cheers," "Frasier") and Bebe Neuwirth ("Cheers," "Frasier") in the film "Fame." Versatility comes to mind when it comes to Megan Mullaly.
Even with a resume such as that, nothing has quite topped the squeaky-voiced, booze-infested socialite that was Karen Walker. So what could be on her next agenda? During an interview with Metrosource Magazine, Mullally divulged a little tidbit on Karen: the Musical. "It’s basically Karen decides for a variety of hilarious reasons to do a Broadway show called “Karen: The Musical.”" Mullally also suggested that Leslie Jordon, who played Beverley Leslie on "Will and Grace," might be involved in the project.
What do you think? Could this be the start of the return of The Queen?

I love Karen Walker, but I can't understand if it is going to be a broadway show or a TV show. If it is on broadway it's sad for everyone that can't go there (like me... I'm an ocean away). If it is a tv show it makes no sense putting beverly leslie on it... that character died in the end of W&G. I think writers of spinoff series should be carefull with the sense of what has happened before...
