I believe 30 Rock is now just one guest star away from actually being Saturday Night Live.
In the past week, the series about a fictional sketch comedy show has had a list of names attached to it. First there was the news about Jennifer Aniston’s appearance, then there was buzz about an actual Oprah cameo. Now there’s gossip about Gossip.
It’s being reported that the writer/star of Mean Girls could be tapping into her own mean girl persona. And who better to help Tina Fey with this sweeps stunt than Gossip Girl’s own Leighton Meester and Blake Lively?

Well, it’s not exactly Friends, but it is still Must See TV.
According to E!, Jennifer Aniston has found a way to keep herself busy post-Mayer. The actress will soon be returning to NBC Thursdays with a guest spot on 30 Rock.
Jennifer is now the the second Friend-ly cast member to visit the Emmy-winning comedy. David Schwimmer played an eco-mascot last season during the network’s Green Week.
The role - which Aniston is currently filming - will most likely be seen in the show’s first few weeks.
Season 3 of 30 Rock premieres on Oct. 30.
