His Hollywood parents almost fled to Canada when Donald Trump was elected the first time, but they stuck around, and now the musical student is carving out his own creative path in the US

Will & Grace will always hold a special place in Eric McCormack’s heart – but his son, Finnigan Holden McCormack, has poked fun at him for watching reruns of the show.

“I remember once, I think it was Thanksgiving, and he walked in and we were sitting there, and an old rerun had come up,” McCormack, 61, told Us Weekly in March. “[Finnigan] looked at us and he looked at the screen and he looked back and he said, ‘Are you just going to sit and watch yourself on television all day? This is appalling!’”

His son has never seen the show his dad starred in for 11 seasons.
