30 Rock Now on TV Land; New Game Show Hosted by Craig Ferguson and Produced by Courteney Cox Coming Fall 2014
TV Land has added 30 Rock to its schedule as of last night. The Tiny Fey comedy is being borrowed from sister network Comedy Central. TV Land is airing the series Mon-Thurs at 11pm and 2am. In between, The King of Queens will air from 11:30pm-2am. 30 Rock will also air Friday nights from 11pm-1:30am and Sunday mornings from 5am-7:30am. A special marathon block will air this Sunday (Nov. 3) from 9pm-12am as well. As for Comedy Central, it will continue to air the series, but mornings at various times for an episode or two from Fri-Sun. On TV Land it will be surrounded by The King of Queens as we mentioned, but also Everybody Loves Raymond (9-10pm) and Friends (10-11pm) leading in.
On this series, Head Writer Liz Lemon finds herself defending her choices and her live TV show when new network executive Jack Donaghy starts meddling with the cast. The series stars Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin, Tracy Morgan, Jane Krakowski, Jack McBrayer, Scott Adsit, Judah Friedlander, Katrina Bowden, Keith Powell, Lonny Ross, John Lutz, Kevin Brown, Grizz Chapman, and Maulik Pancholy over the years. The series lasted seven seasons and 138 episodes from 2006-2013. TV Land began with the very episode and it's airing in order.
FremantleMedia North America and Debmar-Mercury, Lionsgate's television distribution and syndication company, have joined forces to offer Celebrity Name Game. The fast-paced game show, in which celebrities team with contestants to identify famous names, including actors, singers, athletes, pop culture figures, politicians and even cartoon characters, is scheduled for a fall 2014 nationally syndicated launch with The Late, Late Show's Craig Ferguson hosting. Courteney Cox and David Arquette's Coquette Productions (Cougar Town) developed the half-hour strip based on the board game Identity Crisis with Scott St. John (Deal or No Deal), who will also serve as showrunner. Stay with us for continued updates, especially during NATPE in January.
