'30 Rock' finale: Lizzing is what happens while you're busy making other plans
17 May 2012 10:11 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
One never does well to make plans in the 30 Rock universe. Let us consider last year’s season finale: All Liz Lemon (Tina Fey) wanted was to spend the summer wearing comfortable clothes, spending time outside, and learning Spanish. And technically she did all those things — when she was sentenced to don a jumpsuit and work on a community service trash crew with a bunch of Latino criminals.
On 30 Rock, the best laid plans are often the source of the most perverse pleasure. They reveal, to quote Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin) in that same episode, “[the show's] version of normal.” And yet, »

'30 Rock' live: Top 6 differences between the East and West Coast feeds -- Video

Anything can happen on live TV — including Sir Paul McCartney being replaced by the buxom reality star with the big behind. And as it did in 2010, 30 Rock embraced that ethos last night, airing slightly different episodes for East and West Coast audiences. (Both versions are now available on Hulu.) So, what did you miss if you only saw the episode that aired in your time zone? Here are the major ways the West Coast Feed (Wcf) differed from the East Coast Feed (Ecf):

In the Ecf, Kenneth shepherded the Beatle into Jack »

'Engagement' Showcases Rise of NBC's Thursday Night Stars
25 April 2012 11:00 AM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »
Is it a coincidence that NBC Universal's goofy and charming new rom-com "The Five-Year Engagement" is studded with actors from its Thursday-night lineup? Even "30 Rock" boss Jack Donaghy couldn't come up with a better plan.
Emily Blunt and Jason Segel are the stars, of course, as you can see from the ads featuring their enormous(ly lovely) faces on billboards, buses, and bus stops everywhere. Over the course of the movie's 124 minutes, viewers soon find themselves treated to appearances by some of the funniest young actors on the scene.
Alison Brie ("Community") is adorable as Suzie, the little sister of Violet (Blunt). Brie has a sweet British accent and, after a rather boozy rehearsal dinner, hooks up with Alex (Chris Pratt, of "Parks and Rec"), who is Tom (Segel)'s slacker best friend. It's a match made in bizarro land, but somehow it works., and Violet's little sister beats her »

Suddenly the night takes a terrifying turn when one of the group goes missing and the remaining three realise they are being brutally hunted… but by what? Review.
And the rest…

'30 Rock': Weird Al Yankovic to guest star
21 February 2012 2:42 PM, PST | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
There have been a lot of weird people on "30 Rock" over the years. But they've just secured their king, as song parody master Weird Al Yankovic will guest star on the NBC series.
Yankovic broke the news himself on his Twitter page on Tuesday (Feb. 21). He quizzes his 2.5 million followers saying, "Guess which show I'm gonna be on..." before posting a picture of him alongside Tina Fey and Scott Adsit.
It's pretty likely that Yankovic will play himself, although it would be extra fun if he played a Kabletown executive. As for whether he'll perform any of his classic tunes like "Yoda" or "Eat it's unknown.
Yankovic is currently working on his 14th album. He tells Zap2it, "I'm doing the originals right now." As for any song parodies, he says, "I'm trying to stay aware of pop culture, but any parodies I do will probably be songs that haven't even been written yet. »

Jennifer Yuh Nelson's "Kung Fu Panda 2" dominated the Annie Awards nominations, but the International Animated Film Society decided to give its highest honor -- the Best Animated Feature award -- to Gore Verbinski's "Rango." Both films are from DreamWorks Animation and they still have to duke it out at the upcoming Oscars in the Best Animated Feature Film category.
Besides the Best Animated trophy, "Rango" also collected awards for Best Editing and Writing. But Nelson, the first woman to direct a feature film animation from a major Hollywood production company, won the Directing in a Feature Production award! Yay! (Check out my interview with Jennifer Yuh Nelson for "Kung Fu Panda 2" right here)
The Annie Awards winners were announced yesterday at the UCLA Royce Hall in Los Angeles.

Mary Shelley's Frankenhole Season 2 Photo
12 January 2012 11:13 AM, PST | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »
In Season 2 of Mary Shelley's Frankenhole, we find Victor Frankenstein a lot more domesticated, a little more vulnerable, but with the exact same amount of narcissism coursing through his immortal veins. Together with his wife Elizabeth, their adopted artificial son The Creature, and a bunch of other idiots they tackle various mortal problems such as: Who are your biological parents when you're stitched together from cadavers; how can you destroy vampires when there's a group of undead rights activists protecting them; and who's better at giving birth-men or women?
Mary Shelley's Frankenhole is created by Dino Stamatopoulos (Moral Orel and Mr. Show with Bob and David) with writer/producer/director Scott Adsit (30 Rock: Dance Like Nobody's Watching), and voice talent Britta Phillips (Satisfaction), and Jeff Davis (Arli$$: The Immortal).
Here is a new photo from Mary Shelley's Frankenhole Season 2, Episode 2.01: H.G. Wells' Scary Monster Contest.
