Possible Live Episode
August 4, 2008
According to EW there’s a rumor going around that 30 Rock is bidding to air a live episode after the Super Bowl: “Now that the much-anticipated Office spin-off is on the back burner while writer Greg Daniels develops a comedy for Amy Poehler, NBC has to find a show to follow the Super Bowl on Feb. 1. A new episode of The Office seems like the most obvious choice, though far more enlightening alternatives may exist elsewhere on the schedule. To wit: The cast of 30 Rock had previously considered whether to pitch a live telecast after it successfully performed an episode at New York’s Upright Citizens Brigade Theater last winter. Says a network insider: ”It’s still unclear at this point, but we’re gonna put the best asset we can in that slot.” So don’t hold your breath, Lipstick Jungle fans. — Lynette Rice” -Ew Now I understand that this is both a ways off and a lot of wishful thinking, but the very idea is pretty exciting. I mean how awesome would this be?! The cast would be great doing a live show considering Tina, Jack, Tracy, Jane, Scott, and even Alec have a lot of experience with live performance. At this point I’d put money on NBC airing an hour Office Special, but I think it would be cool if they considered one live episode of 30 Rock followed by an episode of the Office. That would help give our show the audience and awareness it deserves. Posted in Uncategorized |
