    Is this really the beginning of the end (all over again) for Will & Grace? Some are skeptical, but whether it's goodbye for now or goodbye forever, NBC is kicking off the show's second farewell season several months early, after yanking Sunnyside from its Thursday night perch. Other highlights today include the release of Netflix's latest teen series, Thursday Night Football, and fresh episodes of The Good Place, Superstore, and Grey's Anatomy. Here are the highlights.

    SEASON PREMIERE: The season opener of Will & Grace, titled "Eat, Pray, Love, Phone, Sex," sees Grace (Debra Messing) returning from a trip with some big news.

    SERIES PREMIERE: Netflix's latest genre-bending series Daybreak introduces viewers to a post-apocalyptic world in which teens rule the planet, and Ferris Bueller grew up to be… a nebbishy principal? Primetimer's Jessica Liese has this preview. Streaming on Netflix

    SPORTS: Fox's all-sports week takes a break from the World Series tonight as the teams travel to Washington DC for Game 3. The NFL fills the gap with Thursday Night Football, which will see another Washington team square off against the Minnesota Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium. 8:00 PM ET on FOX
