Get ready for more WILL & GRACE.

Though the first revival season is still airing, NBC has ordered more of the comedy series. “We’re not doing 13 [in season 10], we’re doing 18,” series co-creator Max Mutchnick announced during the show’s PaleyFest panel.

But that wasn’t the only surprise in store: “NBC has picked us up for a third [AKA eleventh] season,” Eric McCormack (Will) added. He and his co-stars Debra Messing (Grace), Megan Mullally (Karen), and Sean Hayes (Jack) all stood up and cheered over the news.

“As far as I’m concerned, we can’t get enough of WILL & GRACE and 23 more episodes is music to my ears,” said Robert Greenblatt, Chairman, NBC Entertainment, in a statement. “We’re eternally grateful that Debra, Eric, Sean and Megan feel the same way and wanted to keep this good thing going. I’m overwhelmed by the euphoric response the new show has received from the press and the audience, and my hat is off to the unrivaled writing team of Max Mutchnick and David Kohan, as well as the brilliant directing of Jimmy Burrows, for consistently delivering one of the best shows on television.”
