Barring a production strike by NBC mainstays Lorne Michaels, Matthew Perry, Jerry Orbach’s corpse, and that guy on Revolution, demanding more Liz Lemon, and even then I’m not sure they’d get what they want, 30 Rock will air its series finale on January 31, 2013, and the Peacock will be drearier place without it. At least until Community returns exactly one week later, at which point our love of Alison Brie, a grown man wearing dresses, and a monkey named after boobs will supersede our need for more redneck Kenneth jokes.
We, as TV viewers, are fickle bastards.
Anyway, Kevin “Dot Com” Brown tweeted photos from 30 Rock‘s wrap party and final day on set (yesterday), including the group shot above. I have no idea who most of those people are, but I do like Lutz’s smooth “yup, totally not staring at Cerie in her form-fitting pink dress” pose. Also, the only three people looking at the camera are three black guys, a premise that Tina Fey could spin into comedy gold, but now we’ll never know.



And elsewhere…


(That’s Tina with her daughter)



Nice St. Elsewhere’s cake.
Also, I don’t actually see her in the photo, but I’m going to go ahead and call for a Rachel Dratch sighting.
It’s crazy that she was originally supposed to play Jenna. I’m sure the character would have been totally different but I just don’t see how it would have worked, she’s just such a different AC-TOR than Jane Krakowski is.
I’m hoping for a return of THE BLUE DUDE.
IDK man, I might actually tear up a lil bit. Like when The Office cast sang that song to Michael before he left for Colorado
Ludachristmas is on Comedy Central right now. This show in its prime was the best.
“Wouldn’t be a Lemon party without Old Dick!”
I was very so-so about 30 Rock until I saw that scene. Hooked me. But the show’s time has passed and it needs to go to bed now.
Needed more Katrina!
The WORLD needs more Katrina Bowden
I don’t want this show to go stale, but I’d be lying if I said there wasn’t a part of me that really wants someone (preferably Dennis Duffy) to go “Psyche, dummy!” and make this not true.
I hate this. I hate this so much.
Well of course Lutz wouldn’t be ogling anyone; his wife is right there.
Way to go real life Lutz! Sue is a real piece of ass!
Very smart to put Katrina Bowden in the middle. That’s where I’d put her, too.
A show that will be sorely missed by East Coast yuppies and no one else.
Lol, true. Tina Fey isn’t funny.
Have sex with yourself using your auditory meatus and die in a fire.
Well, let’s hope that Parks and Rec stays a little longer (at least one more season). I can say bye to Liz Lemon and Jack but I’m not emotionally prepared to do the same to Ron Swanson.
Tinas daughter looks like Arya Stark
Is that an alligator/crocodile in the background of the one with Tina?
I’m going to miss this show…
