Cristin Milioti: 5 Facts on the '30 Rock' Actress Who Stole the Show Last Night
By Steven Hoffer - AOL NewsCristin Milioti rocked "30 Rock." The up-and-coming actress gave a memorable performance on NBC's hit series last night that left the Web buzzing. She guest-starred as Abby Flynn, a female writer hired by Tina Fey's character Liz because of concerns that the fictional show, "TGS With Tracey Jordan," "hates women." Judging by this review from TV Squad, her cameo was a winner: "There are two reasons why the Abby Flynn plot worked. Oh, get your mind out of the gutter! I'm talking about the two different personalities that Cristin Milioti showed: Abby the buxom blond with the baby voice and ...
Friedlander, Other Comics Roll Out Plans to Fix Washington [VIDEO]
By Barry Weintraub - AOL News(Oct. 28) -- If you know anything about Judah Friedlander's character on "30 Rock," he's a sex-crazed slob with a trucker hat for every occasion. In real life, Friedlander is out with a new book, "How to Beat Up Anybody," and he's hoping his next gig will be as president of the United States. We caught up with him at New York City's Comic Strip -- the legendary comedy club that launched the careers of Jerry Seinfeld, Chris Rock, Adam Sandler and other standups. Our mission was simple: We just wanted comics to tell us, "How would you fix Washington?" Since so many of us think Washington, ...
Tina Fey: Mark Twain Prize Winner and 'Fearless Observer of Society'
By Frances Tobin - Politics DailyIn the midst of a news cycle dominated by serious and sobering issues including catastrophic oil rig explosions, continuing economic woes and an ongoing immigration debate, a morsel of good news is still to be found: It was announced this week that Tina Fey, of "Saturday Night Live" and "30 Rock" fame, won the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor -- one of the most prestigious humor awards in the country. When Fey is presented the award during a show at the Kennedy Center this November, she will be joining a small club of honorees. Only 12 other comedians have won the award, and of those, ...
Enough With Lament: Why This Decade Should Be Celebrated
By Andrew Clark - Politics DailyNow that the eve of a new decade is upon us, the pundits are looking back at the 2000s, and they're judging it a train wreck. Time Magazine heralded the goodbye to the Decade From Hell, calling it the "most dispiriting and disillusioning decade Americans have lived through in the post-World War II era," going so far as to create a slide show titled "The 10 Worst Things About the Worst Decade Ever." In a clever wordplay, the Washington Post lamented that the decade should not be called the Aughts, but the "Oughts," in memoriam of all the achievements that "ought" to have happened in the 2000s, ...
Alec Baldwin Dismisses Senate Run, Calls Lieberman a 'Moderate Republican'
By David Sessions - Politics DailyAlec Baldwin may play a moderate Republican on "30 Rock," but in real life, he finds the label insulting enough to level at Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman, with whom he's been carrying on a mild public tiff. Baldwin told Playboy this month that he "has no use" for Lieberman and would love to move to Connecticut to run against him. Lieberman came back in an interview with CNN's John King, saying that he respected Baldwin "as an actor and comedian," and that a Senate race between them would "make my day." ...
NBC Ruins Perfectly Good 30 Rock With Beijing Olympics Promotion
By PostmanE - AOL NewsHey, I know the score: It's a tough time for big network TV execs. Gone are the 1970's, when people had few entertainment choices other than the big three (four) networks, and pretty much any product that wanted to reach a TV audience had to do so by paying a king's ransom to NBC, CBS, and the like. Now I have 800 gazillion channels and Tivo, so I don't need to watch a single TV the rest of my life. It's awesome. So I know NBC has to square its own network promotion in its own shows. I get it. But that doesn't make it any less lame (via TSB): Seriously, NBC, just tell us you're having the ...
