Fans of the hit TV comedy 30 rock have been excited since it was announced that a new special is in the works, some of us were a lot more skeptical but the latest teaser puts all of that to rest. Liz Lemon is still going around New York, only now it’s firing the Covid-19 pandemic. The teaser shows all the characters that made this such a fun watch and has us on the edge of our seats for the release.
30 Rock” aired for seven seasons on NBC, from 2006 to 2013, bagging 16 Emmys, including three consecutive awards for best comedy.
The hour-long reunion, billed as a “one-time event,” will be commercial-free. Because it’s an NBC Upfront event, you can expect guest appearances from various personalities across NBCUniversal’s 2020-2021 season. As with the “Parks and Recreation” reunion, the “30 Rock” reunion will see characters living their lives (remotely) in the pandemic. A teaser for the special shows Tina Fey’s Liz Lemon on the street, wearing not one but two masks (and shaming someone else on the street for not wearing one).
