'30 ROCK' MAKES ITS iTUNES DEBUT
BURBANK – November 27, 2006 – NBC has added its breakout comedy
"30 Rock" (Thursdays 9:30 p.m. ET) to the comprehensive list of
popular NBC Universal programming available on the iTunes Store (www.itunes.com).
Fans can purchase their favorite episodes the day after airing for just
$1.99 per episode for viewing on a computer or video iPod. NBC Universal
regularly dominates the top ten most downloaded list on iTunes with
"Heroes," "Studio 60," "Battlestar Gallactica"
and "The Office."
Emmy Award winner Tina Fey (NBC's "Saturday Night Live,"
"Mean Girls") writes, executive-produces and stars as Liz Lemon
in NBC's "30 Rock," a workplace comedy where the workplace
exists behind-the-scenes of a live variety show. The show is told through
the comedic voice of Fey and features Alec Baldwin ("The
Aviator," "The Cooler" ) as Jack Donaghy, the brash new
network executive who has turned the show upside down with his meddling
ways.
The single Lemon is living every comedy writer's dream - head writer on
a demanding, live TV program in New York City. Her life is jolted when
Donaghy interferes with her show, and bullies Lemon into convincing Tracy
Jordan (Tracy Morgan, "Saturday Night Live," "The Longest
Yard") -- a wild and unpredictable movie star -- to join the cast.
Now Lemon must manage the unmanageable so that the show -- and her dream
-- can go on.
Also rounding out the cast in the half hour comedy are: Jane Krakowski
("Ally McBeal" as Jenna Maroney), Scott Adsit ("Kicking and
Screaming" as Pete Hornberger,) the variety show's producer, Jack
McBrayer ("Arrested Development" as Kenneth the Page,) the
over-eager NBC Page -- a highly sought-after entry level position with the
network, and Rachel Dratch ("Saturday Night Live" in multiple
roles).
"30 Rock" is from NBC Universal Television Studio and
Broadway Video Television. Tina Fey, Lorne Michaels, JoAnn Alfano and
Marci Klein are executive producers.
