It honestly seems like Tina Fey can get anyone she wants — Brian Williams! Bon Jovi! Serious actress Julianne Moore! — so who else would you love to see on the show? I’m thinking the 100 highest-paid actors in Hollywood should guest on the same episode in one of those produced-by-Jack Donaghy clip series of fake NBC shows. Sure, that would be totally manageable.
I can’t wait for Elizabeth Banks to return as Jack’s love interest — I need her to come back so she can guilt me into morning jogging. Yeah, right! And speaking of love-hate chemistry on 30 Rock…is anyone else still miffed that Lemon and Michael Sheen’s character, Wesley Snipes, couldn’t make it work? The first time I watched “Future Husband” I was half-asleep, but misinterpreted their apparently doomed coffee outing was the best first date ever instead of the worst. The whole time they sat there and dissed each other, I could have sworn both parties were really into it. I just watched the scene on Hulu again and stand by my preposterous claim, fully awake. Maybe I’m just too delighted by Lemon’s reaction to the term “bread back” to admit they were both cringing at every exchange. Ugh, fine, I just admitted it.
After the Oscars, this should be obvious: Robert Downey Jr.
Yes.
No – Alan Thicke, Kirk Cameron, and Tracey Gold
I absolutely agree!
This.
FANTASTIC.
Perfect. And he could do anything. He could be a love-interest for Liz, he could be one of Jack’s cronies, etc.
1000% agreement! It cracks me up that this was posted by “Robert” — maybe RDJ himself likes the idea.
Stellar….
This needs to happen…he would be perfect!
Sally Field as Liz’s aunt.
Summer Glau as Frank’s dream come true.
David Arquette as a love interest for Jenna.
Make it happen.
Bring back Michael Sheen!
Also, I think the inspiration for my username should play Astronaut Mike Dexter.
And RDJ would be welcome anytime.
Kristen Chenoweth as Jenna’s sister. Duh.
Oh, this is good. Want, please!
That would be brilliant. Kristen excels at playing ditzy attention-seekers. Sound familiar?
Brilliant.
What about Queen Latifah as Tracey or Angie’s mother?
How old do you think Queen Latifah is?
Well, it was established las tseason that Liz and Pete have no idea how old Tracy (or other black people) are, so it could conceivably work.
Meryl Streep! She should do TV guest appearences more often. She’d be great!
And what about Tilda Swinton as a love interest for Jack? That sounds so strangely thrilling to me.
I’m still holding out for a guest-star role for Amy Poehler even though she’s on Parks & Rec now…
Rue McLanahan as Kenneth’s hard core religous Grandmother who looks to “re-christianize” Tracy. Hilarity ensues.
Ok this is an INCREDIBLE idea
Oh my god…… you’re a genius
so good.
My favorite ep ever was MILF island, so i vote to bring in an A list female star to go to the island. I laughed the whole time.
Halle Berry
Marion Cotillard
as long as they bring back DeBorah as well
She has the bearing of a queen…
honestly…Rachel Dratch.
john cleese? woody harrelson as kenneth’s brother or cousin? clint eastwood? anyone from Lost so the nerds can freak out. those are my random thoughts.
Scarlett Johansson: as Cerie’s assistant/friend who has a crush on Liz
Now that she’s about to have more free time, what about Vanessa Williams as a women’s cable-network version of Jack? She would be a hilarious love interest for him — agewise, smartswise and snarkwise, she’s actually his match — and she’s a terrific comedienne, period.
Yes, yes, a thousand times, yes!
Jay Leno
OMG yes.
Anne Hathaway ! She somewhat favors Tina Fey (can be her younger cousin or sister) , and also she can be a great rival for Jane Krakowski- because they both can sing & dance
