Emmy-nomination reactions and article with Jack McBrayer:

Alec Baldwin, nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for his work as Jack Donaghy on 30 Rock: "I'm thrilled for everyone connected to the show, but I'm especially excited for Jane, Jack and Tracy. It's great working with the entire group, and I'm grateful for the recognition of our work."

Jane Krakowski, nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her work as Jenna Maroney on 30 Rock: "The writers have created an amazing character in Jenna, which I just love to play. I'm so honored to be part of this ensemble. This is my first Emmy nomination; I'm so excited! I am blown away by the number of nominations the show has received and thrilled for everyone." "My first reaction, because I couldn't find the list online, I was like, `No, no, send me the list. I do not believe this is real. You have to prove it to me by seeing it in writing.'"

Tracy Morgan, nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for his work as Tracy Jordan on 30 Rock, "It is an honor to be recognized by my peers and be a part of 30 Rock's 22 nominations. I want to thank everyone from Tina to Lorne to everyone in craft services." / "I got a call from my manager. He said, 'Dude, dude, you're nominated!' Then I fell back asleep. I was out cold. LeBron James got into my dreams. He said I was nominated!"

Jack McBrayer Outstanding supporting actor in a comedy for 30 Rock: "I'm in shock and going through motions. I turned on my cell phone and the first call I got [was] from Amy Adams of all people." / "Our land line was ringing and nobody ever calls on that line unless it's a fax or telemarketers. I thought, `6 a.m. is early for a telemarketer,' so I got up and turned on my cell phone and right then Amy Adams was calling me. Two-time Oscar nominee Amy Adams was calling me! And she was telling me congratulations. And then I started getting all these phone calls so I knew something was up but then I couldn't find the Web site that would list everything. It was not a good start. It was a very clunky start for me." / "I am thrilled to be riding some very nice coat tails right now. We are all floored that the show is getting so much recognition. I blame Tina Fey."

30 Rock will live on in syndication on Comedy Central starting in 2011.  That's pretty cool.  And it means NBC is committed to at least 5 seasons.  

Full article/blurb from the NY Times here. 

EDIT:  More specifics from Variety here.

So much violence in Tina's work! Never fails to make me laugh though. :D

30 Rock got syndication! They can all get jewel-encrusted bling now.

'30 Rock' cable ready
Show nabs big bucks in off-network sales

Liz Lemon has reason to celebrate: NBC's "30 Rock" has nabbed megabucks in off-network sales to Comedy Central and WGN America.

The Universal Media Studios laffer starring Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin was said to have fetched an impressive fee of about $800,000 per episode in total from separate deals with Viacom-owned Comedy Central and Tribune-owned WGN. Both outlets will begin airing the episodes as a Monday-Friday strip in fall 2011.

Really happy for Tina & Co since this was what she has been slogging towards for so long. Not sure how the earnings will be split. Hopefully this doesn't affect their decision to do 6 seasons (I think they only need 5 to get to 100 episodes so I'm guessing anything more is bonus).

I am recycling this macro because I have a very important announcement to make: Round 2 of the "Survival of the Hottest Ship" contest over at ship_manifesto has started. I'm here to remind everyone--regardless of whether or not you ship Jack/Liz as a romantic couple--to vote for our favorite duo here. Remember, the term "ship" can be used to describe friendship as well, and you just KNOW that Jack and Liz are the cutest BFFs ever to grace the screen (both big and small). At the moment, the two are losing quite badly to Phoebe Haliwell and Cole Turner from Charmed, which is just untoward...this is NOT toward!

Three simple steps you can take to help bring the votes in our favor:
1) Go to this page.
2) Press Ctrl/Apple + F to look up "Jack Donaghy".
3) VOTE FOR JACKIE D. AND LIZ LEMON COOL J.

Remember, you don't even have to ship them romantically. Just so long as you like their interactions as friends/whatever, you're all set. And if you happen to not like their friendship--nah, that's impossible, and would be completely blasphemic to the fandom of 30 Rock. So...

VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! (Voting ends at 10:00 PM EST tonight, so please hurry, and feel free to encourage your LJ friends to vote as well--it's been proven from last round that enlisting the help of others WORKS to change the odds.)

My fellow fans, I leave you all with The Jacker's very own words...

JUST DO IT. IS IT IN YOU? I'M LOVIN' IT.

Thank you for your attention.

P.S. I took forever typing up this post, so I hope not all will go to waste.
