Jane Krakowski and Jack McBrayer on the new season of 30 Rock

by

So if you haven’t watched 30 Rock you may remember Jane Krakowski as sexpot Elaine Vassal on Alley McBeal. However Ms. Krakowski is much more of a rounded actress than a Calista Flockhart sidekick (anyone remember her role in National Lampoon’s Vacation?) Check out Krakowsk’s take on the new season of 30 Rock.

When asked about the upcoming season, Krakowski said, “Hopefully winning the Emmy will bring a bit more of people’s awareness to it and that we’ll get to keep making them because it’s so fun to make. The first 5 episodes are so hilarious. We shot 5 of them already. The writers have come up with such funny stuff, I think the first 5 are as good as the best ones of last season and even better. I hope we just get to make more.”

And Jack McBrayer AKA Kenneth, may seem like a showbiz newcomer but the Macon, Georgia native has actually a product of the renown Second City Improv Theater (where Tina Fey came from).
When discussing the new season, McBrayer reveals that a lot of struggle and hard work are also attached to creating the show, along with traditional slapstick.

“It is so difficult just to keep it together because the scripts are so funny. As long as you keep the main goal in line of, okay, lets put this story together so hopefully the rest of American can laugh as much as we are. Everybody here is such professionals and our crew is fantastic, so we run a tight ship here and get the job done,” he said describing the set on a day to day basis.
