30 Rock is back with season 2 on Star World
MUMBAI: Emmy Award winner Tina Fey writes, executive-produces and stars as Liz Lemon in "30 Rock," a Golden Globe Award-winning American sitcom. 30 Rock is 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"), Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Awards for Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series as Jack Donaghy. Alec is the brash new network executive who has turned the show upside down with his meddling ways. The exciting new series, ‘30 Rock‘, on Thursday, 17 April at 9 pm only on Star World. Liz Lemon is the head writer of a demanding, live sketch-comedy series called "The Girlie Show". Although she‘s always up to her ears with work, this single woman is happy with her life because she‘s living the dream of every comedy writer in the Big Apple. Network boss Jack Donaghy is cool, calm and egotistical. Despite being a newcomer to showbiz, he believes that he is well qualified to fix "The Girlie Show"? even though it‘s not broken. With the gang returning from their summer break, Liz (Tina Fey) is still heartbroken over Floyd‘s departure. Meanwhile, when Jack (Alec Baldwin) learns that his boss may be retiring, he positions himself to be his successor. Elsewhere, Jenna (Jane Krakowski) struggles to shed the weight she has gained over the summer and the show‘s loose-canon star Tracy (Tracy Morgan) finds himself homeless. "A lot of what we‘ll be doing is to reset to where we were for viewers who are coming to the show for the first time," says Fey. "That way they can meet these characters for the first time and enjoy them.." A favourite of the critics, the sitcom has picked up trophies at every major awards show. At the Emmys, the show was named Most Outstanding Comedy series.
