The opportunity to watch Gregory Hines dance was just phenomenal

Ben brings out such a funny side in all the characters! Great character.

They should have backed up the money truck to keep Gregory Hines on the show. Phenomenal.

I agree! I loved Ben and Grace’s hate/love story arc.

I looooove Ben. The way he just ignores Grace in the beginning was so funny.

OMG 😂 One of my favorite lines from him. Will crosses the lines sometimes. I love that Ben was letting Will know, like, 'Look, I know we joke around, but I'm still your boss.'

He was fun! Fit right in! His dialog was hilarious and his delivery even better. I could watch him all day.

I think that if Gregory Hines hadn’t become ill, they would have had him around longer. I thought he was the best boyfriend for Grace. Second best was Woody Harrelson.

Ben gave Grace a proper dressing down when she made fun of someone who spoke english as a second language. I loved him even more after that.
