Herschlag has been an executive producer and writer on Will & Grace since the show's premiere in 1998.

Prior to that, he worked on ABC's Ellen, where he met Flebotte. Flebotte comes over to Will & Grace from Fox's The Bernie Mac Show.
Greg Malins also is joining the show as co-executive producer. Malins most recently was executive producer of NBC's summer comedy Come to Papa and executive produced Friends.

Will & Grace is produced by KoMut Entertainment in association with NBC Universal Television Studios and Three Sisters Entertainment.
