Tina Fey we love you!

Yes, the staff here at Apartment404 is as much in love with the ubiquitous NBC comedienne as the rest of America is. And we are wondering why the network has held out the much anticipated season premiere of "30 Rock" for so long. According to the NYT, NBC regrets delaying the premiere until 10/30 at 9:30pm, but claims ignorance over how absolutely huge Fey's star would shine this fall.

Can anyone believe that Tina Fey started out as just a writer on Saturday Night Live, and not a performer? She was reportedly conscious of her weight and glasses, and didn't feel comfortable in front of the camera. And today she may be the biggest star on television, though the ratings for "30 Rock" were not exactly off the charts last year. Fey's spot-on impression of Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin may help those ratings, and the success of last spring's film "Baby Mama" also will help get some eyeballs to the show.
