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.

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Music, Prime Time, FOX, Gossip,
“It keeps changing!” Naya Rivera, known to Glee watchers as Santana, said of her character’s relationship with Brittany (played by Heather Morris). “It’s so complicated … I think ultimately they are best best friends, and as far as [Santana’s] sexuality, that’s one of the great mysteries of the show.”
Many fans love the idea of Brittana -- a girl-girl couple featuring, naturally, Santana and Brittany. The two performed a kissing scene early in Season 2 that got plenty of watchers buzzing. “I think that we have great chemistry working together, Heather and I,” Rivera said. “At the end of the day, Brittany and Santana are always going to be best friends, and as far as what they are going to do with their relationship, it’s up to writers, but I would love to represent.”

Onion SportsDome: Comedy Central’s Promising Premiere
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, Cable, Video,
Tuesday was a big night for Comedy Central.
The evening marked the return of popular series Tosh.0, which became a solid lead-in for the channel’s side-splitting new series Onion SportsDome. And if you missed the premiere, it’s time to go on a TiVo hunting mission right now … because this is probably the best show of the season.
Brought to you by The Onion, the SportsDome is part parody, part satire and hysterical through-and-through. With segments like “Who Would You Kill,” Onion SportsDome shows us what all sports shows should look like. Hosts Alex Reiser and Mark Sheppard (played by Matt Walton and Matt Oberg) offer gut-busting deadpan delivery to lead the series.
The show’s total irreverence for all things sports makes it engaging and absolutely unique. We’re already hungry for more, but unfortunately the Dome won’t be back with a new episode until next week.
