30 Rock

30 Rock, “30 Rock” is going live again.  NBC says the comedy series will air a live episode April 26. This will be the second live outing for the New York-based show, which is normally a single-camera filmed production. In October 2010, “30 Rock” aired a live episode originating from NBC’s Studio 8H, home of “Saturday Night Live.”

No details were available on the upcoming episode.  The award-winning series is in its sixth season. It stars Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin and Tracy Morgan.  Mitt Romney is heading to Jay Leno’s stage.   NBC says the Republican presidential candidate will be the lead guest on the “Tonight Show” on Tuesday — his first stop during the 2012 presidential season.

He’s been a Leno guest three times in the past, but it will be his first appearance on the show since 2010.

News Corp.’s Twentieth Century Fox Film unit was sued by a British company claiming its “Glee” television series may be confused with U.K. comedy events using the same name.

The trademark-infringement claim was brought by Comic Enterprises Ltd., which operates the Glee Club comedy venues in Cardiff, Oxford and Nottingham, which began operating in 1994. The dispute was referred to a higher London court by a patent judge today.

The owner of Comic Enterprises claims the title of the U.S. series about a high school music club “led to clear confusion between his business and the program,” Judge Colin Birss said.

The claim for an injunction would have “catastrophic consequences” for Fox if successful and should be decided in a higher court even if it means extra costs, Birss said in a written ruling.

David Stone, a lawyer for Fox, declined to comment when contacted by phone.

Alec BaldwinAlec Baldwin, Alec Baldwin is preparing for life after “30 Rock”, working with New York radio audience in a talk show that will be available via podcast from October 24.

The first interview is with actor Michael Douglas, who speaks from the observation of “Glee” with his young daughter. Other interviews to follow will be the Republican strategist Ed Rollins campaign, reality-show celebrity Kris Jenner Kardashian, comedian Chris Rock, actress Kathleen Turner, author Erica Jong and veteran talk-show host Dick Cavett, the station WNYC, said Thursday.

Baldwin said he has been exploring other things to do, knowing that his small-screen life as corporate executive Jack Donaghy crazy moves towards its end.

Baldwin won Emmys for her portrayal of a comic head of the television. He said he would like to use their free time to meet the need for other things.

Its mix of guests on the radio program will be in various fields, but leans towards fellow artists. Baldwin said he is particularly interested in talking with veterans of the entertainment world on the instructions of their careers have taken and how to keep the juices flowing.

He is a recognized “public radio junkie” who has filled in the air by WNYC in New York and helped fund units. After his work in the air like a great substitute for Kurt Andersen, Baldwin and WNYC both were interested in doing something else, said Dean Cappello, senior vice president of programming at New York radio audience.

“Alec is one of the boys in our city,” he said.

New interviews will be available once a week. Cappello said he hoped that in time will become a radio show on the air, but those plans have not been established yet.

Baldwin said his “30 Rock” contract ends after next season sixth on NBC, starting with Donaghy “in agony” because his wife is locked up in North Korea. There is a possibility it could be expanded program for another year, but he said he is not sure if he wants to.

“Maybe,” he said. “I would not preclude them from having one more year, because they are all my friends and I have been good to me. Perhaps I would do a piece of the year. But what I really want to move on to other things.”

His “30 Rock” has been working offers movie you want to explore. Baldwin, 53, also talked about entering politics one day, but it would require a transformation that would take time.

“I have to finish what I’m doing now and to separate these two parts of my life,” he said. “I have not really formalized that. It’s like the difference between going to Jon Stewart and Jim Lehrer. The jokes have to stop, everything must be on file.”

It shows the race has been better than Baldwin.

“The life we ??have now will be better,” he said. “I have a great job. Everyone thinks I’m funny.’m Fooling everyone. They think I’m talented. I am giving cat through the eyes of all and I are paying for it. It is very exciting.”

Cristin Milioti: ’30 Rock’

February 25, 2011 by · Comments Off on Cristin Milioti: ’30 Rock’ 

Cristin Milioti, Milioti was on Rock as Abby Flynn, a baby voiced comic with pigtails? Liz has hired new writer women because people said, “TGS hates women.” 30 Rock last night also introduced a new NEMISIS for Jack, as the granddaughter Kabletown CEO Hank Hooper. Chloe Moretz was fabulous as a new rival to Jack for power. It’s too funny! Last night’s episode, “TGS hates women” begins with a show being presented on the blog that asks, “Why TGS hate women?” Liz objects to the title, but quickly realizes that TGS will tend to make jokes to females. Liz asks Jack if he thinks she hates women and Jack tells him that all women – not just Liz -. “Genetically predisposed to be jealous of each other” are

Cristin Milioti stole the show on 30 Rock last night. It’s hard to upstage the team of 30 Rock, because everyone is so funny, but Cristin Milioti was great, as the writer of TGS news Abby Flynn.
Speaking of great performances, jobs Chloe Moretz as granddaughter Kaley Hooper was really kick-ass, and I’m not just saying that to make reference to the film because I have not seen. It is like Don Geiss’s daughter Kathy, she alone can speak, she is intelligent and has many plans for intelligent control Kabletown / NBC that Jack does. It’s as if Jack was always someone to fight the move to NBC, whether it’s Kathy, Devon Banks, or anyone else.
There are two reasons why the plot Abby Flynn worked. Oh, your mind out of the gutter! I’m talking about two different personalities who showed Cristin Milioti Abby busty blonde with baby voice and alternative comics with Abby mind razor. It was a great performance with clever end: Abby will not stick around, because she has to find a new identity as Liz blew her senior. But God, how Liz was supposed to know this? Give him a break. The other major plot of the show (also, thank you 30 Rock, to get rid of the useless third plot not funny for once) revolves around Jack’s attempts to get closer to Hank Hooper to obtain a position as successor Kabletown Hooper. The only thing in his way? Hooper teenage granddaughter, Kaylie (Chloe Moretz, Kick-Ass and Let Me In). Donaghy spends most of the episode trying to run out of competition for Kaylie work of Hooper, or as Liz says, “trying to destroy a 14-years.”

But, like Abby, Kayla is not what it seems. It turns out that Jack was playing all the time he believed her game, and it does not give up without a fight Kabletown. The school scene is perhaps the best thing ever, and I am beyond excited to plot several episodes featuring Moretz and Baldwin. Somehow, the character Moretz says more women in the workplace more than anything lemon plot, so that the two stories complement each other very well in one direction. Kaylie picks up where lemon drop and Abby.
