Plot

Art imitates life in this smart comedy starring SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE alums Tina Fey, Tracy Morgan, and frequent host Alec Baldwin. In addition to writing and executive producing 30 ROCK, Fey plays Liz Lemon, the head writer on a variety series called "The Girlie Show." But the new Vice President of East Coast Television and Microwave Oven Programming, Jack Donaghy (Baldwin), decides to shake up the show, adding crazy actor Tracy Jordan (Morgan) to the cast and changing the name. A critical hit, 30 ROCK garnered a Golden Globe win for Baldwin and Emmy nods in its freshman season for its brand of comedy that ably straddles intelligence and silliness. This single-camera sitcom also features Jane Krakowski (ALLY MCBEAL), Scott Adsit (KICKING AND SCREAMING), and Judah Friedlander. But with such a deep bench of talent, the show's secret weapon is Kenneth, played by Jack McBrayer (ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT), whose naiveté is a hilarious contrast to the rest of the characters.
