AceShowbiz - Gathering 150 plus celebrities in one room is no easy task and Sean Hayes knows it well. In a sneak peek for director James Burrows' NBC tribute, the comedian teams up with cast of "Friends", "The Big Bang Theory", "Will & Grace" as well as "Two and a Half Men" for the televised event's opening skit.
Jim Parsons of "TBBT" calls Hayes to enlist his help in calling the stars for that night's gala. "Are you doing anything important today? I need your help. I sort of promised the head of NBC that I would put together this big special honoring Jimmy Burrows," Parsons quips.
Hayes, apparently an obsessed fan of Burrows, answers, "Jimmy Burrows? Are you talking about veteran sitcom director James Burrows, known for Cheers, Taxi, Fraiser, Will & Grace? The James Burrows whose photo I just happen to have next to my bed?"
Hayes proceeds into calling such people as Ted Danson, Rhea Perlman, Matt LeBlanc, Charlie Sheen and Woody Harrelson among others.
"Must See TV: An All Star Tribute to James Burrows" will air on NBC on Sunday, February 21, at 9 P.M. EST.
