Tina Fey

By Bob Sassone I wonder how 30 Rock will handle today's deal with Comcast. I'm sure Tina Fey and the rest of the writers are already working on an episode or two about the takeover. They've already had a plot this season about budget cuts and other network moves, and I think this could be one of those weird time...

By Bob Sassone Every week we can be guaranteed that Tina Fey and the people at 30 Rock will make fun of NBC in some way, whether it's product placement or The Jay Leno Show or last night's line about the green NBC peacock in the corner of the screen. Fey also isn't shy about dumping on NBC when she's away from the...

By Bob Sassone Tina Fey was supposed to be on The Jay Leno Show several days ago but didn't make it for some reason. But last night she showed up. Well, via satellite, to do the Ten@Ten (not sure what that means to viewers who watch the show at 9 PM). Fey actually discusses something I mentioned in my review of las...

By Bob Sassone So, let's say TV Squad wanted to have a 30-second ad on CBS' highest-rated show, NCIS. It would cost us $133,304. It would actually cost more, because we'd hire scantily-clad dancers, include a 35 pound bag of Doritios, fireworks in the shape of each writer, guest appearances from people li...

By Bob Sassone It's funny how Liz Lemon wrote the book titled Dealbreakers (a plot from last season they've continued this season). You can actually picture a book like that getting published. There must have been a hundred humor books like that released in the past five years, so this doesn't seem like on...

By Jason Hughes Thursday's return of 30 Rock afforded a pretty fun segue into The Jay Leno Show. 30 Rock has always been a little self-aware, and here they took that to the next level. During the closing credits, Jack (Alec Baldwin) said to Liz (Tina Fey), "Step into the light, Lemon. There's nothing wrong wit...

By Bob Sassone Tina Fey was on The Today Show this morning to promote the new season of 30 Rock (tonight at 9:30 on NBC), and besides showing a clip from the episode, Fey kisses someone from the morning show. But that's OK. Meredith Vieria kisses Tracy Morgan too. What the hell is going on over at NBC?

By Bob Sassone One of my favorite features of NBC's web site are the Ask Tina videos. You send in questions to Tina Fey and she answers them. They don't do enough of them to my liking (I'd like to see them every week but I understand Tina is busy), but we have a new one this week. In it Tina answers questions about he...

There was one thing I truly loved about this episode: the way Tina Fey and the other writers used real life to comment on what's going on with Liz Lemon and TGS. Fey gets a book deal from her "That's a Deal Breaker Ladies!" catch phrase and Jack tells ...

 CA and Elvis Costello is really an international art thief. And if anyone can make someone like Adam Levine funny, it's gotta be Tina Fey. The finale airs tonight after My Name is Earl. It's the last new 30 Rock we'll get for months, so soak it up.

The life stuff is obvious: he...

By Bob Sassone Tonight at 8:30 brings us the season premiere of NBC's 30 Rock (or should I say NBC's Emmy Winner for Best Comedy 30 Rock!). We'll have a review later tonight, but I found out that after the show airs, stars Tina Fey and Jack McBrayer ...

By Anna Johns NBC has put together a compilation of Tina Fey's 'Best of' moments when she hosted Weekend Edition on Saturday Night Live. And it's free. On YouTube. For real. The video is a little over four minutes of some good one-liners and zingers ...
