No 30 Rock Baby for Jane Krakowski
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, NBC, 30 Rock,
Although one could imagine 30 Rock making Jenna Maroney and her drag queen impersonator/boyfriend (Will Forte) parents, a baby will not be in their future anytime soon.
When news of Jane Krakowski's real-life pregancy was revealed, fans of the NBC series immediately wondered what that would mean for her TV character. Now, we know the answer.
“At this time, we plan to shoot around Jane’s pregnancy, because no child should have Jenna Maroney for a mother," exec producer Robert Carlock and Tina Fey told EW in a statement.
Ouch.

Jim Carrey Scores for SNL
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Ratings, Video,
Saturday Night Live is ringing 2011 in strong.
The show’s first episode of the year, hosted by Jim Carrey, scored big ratings. SNL’s first 2011 installment brought in the biggest numbers for the series since Betty White was the host last May.
The video above features a Black Swan spoof that was definitely one of Carrey’s shining moments on the show.

This Week on TV (1/10-1/16)
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Bravo, Cable, CBS, FOX, MTV, NBC, Desperate Housewives, Medium,
(Make sure to check out TV Envy's Programming Schedule.)
MONDAY (1/10)
- Inside the Actors Studio (Bravo, 8 P.M.): "James Lipton conducts an interview with actor and funnyman Jim Carrey, star of The Truman Show (1998), Man on the Moon (1999) and the Ace Ventura films." This would be an example of a "yes man" interviewing the Yes Man.
- Lie to Me (FOX, 8 P.M.): "When Cal (Tim Roth) is asked to determine if a mental hospital patient is being held against his will he begins to question his own sanity." When you go from Reservoir Dogs to a television series, it's natural to question yourself occasionally.
- Castle (ABC, 10 P.M.): "Castle and Beckett interview a top magician (Gilles Marini) after the owner of a magic store drowns in Houdini's legendary water torture tank." Now that's a man who can make magic happen.

Gwyneth Paltrow and Cee Lo Green to Do SNL, Duet Inevitable
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Late Night, Music, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Video,
UPDATE: Cee Lo has confirmed that he has recorded a new version of "F**k You" with Paltrow.
Late last month, singer Cee Lo Green teased that he and Gwyneth Paltrow -- who covered his song "Forget You" on an episode of Glee -- would collaborate on something "extra cool" in the future. Now, we have a better idea what that "surprise" is.
One day after (sorta) confirming a duet to Good Morning America's Robin Roberts (see the video above), it was officially announced that Gwyneth and Cee Lo would both be appearing on the January 15 broadcast of Saturday Night Live. (Their visits will come one week after Jim Carrey and The Black Keys share that NBC stage.)
Is it safe to say a joint musical number between Paltrow and Green is a foregone conclusion?
BTW -- if you want a preview of what Gwyneth's singing could look like that night, check out her musical performance on yesterday's Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

VIDEO: Jeff Bridges Fearless, Funny as SNL Host
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Video,
Oscar winner Jeff Bridges was fearless during his weekend stint on Saturday Night Live. Although he didn’t absolutely shine in every single skit (the “gift-wrapping” bit was tepid at best), he was brilliant as the star of Jeff’d.
In the skit above, Bridges does his hilarious take on Punk’d -- without the Ashton Kutcher exuberance or a true prankster’s mean streak. The results are comedy gold.
