The original "Will & Grace" had the Midas touch when it came to guest stars. Matt Damon, Michael Douglas and Janet Jackson all pop by during a seven-hour marathon of reruns. Preparations for the show's return later this month continue Tuesday with NBC's "The Paley Center Salutes the Best of Will & Grace."
