Jennifer Aniston has returned to the NBC family … well, at least for a little bit. Here are pictures of Jen on the NYC streets set of 30 Rock filming new scenes last night for her upcoming guest stint on the show. According to reports, Jen will play a crazy Fatal Attraction-like stalker … which sounds like a role she can pull off successfully:
Jennifer Aniston will guest star on an episode of 30 Rock NBC confirmed on Tuesday. The former Friends star will play a “free-spirited, Fatal Attraction-like stalker” NBC said in a statement. Aniston’s character, Claire Harper, is Liz Lemon’s (Tina Fey) former roommate from Chicago who shows up in New York and latches on to Jack Donaghy Alec Baldwin. “Jennifer is not only incredibly lovely to have around, she also has what the young people would call ‘mad skills.’ We’re very excited that she’s joining us,” show creator, executive producer and star Tina Fey said in the statement … Aniston – has previously made guest appearances on Dirt and South Park. 30 Rock premieres on October 30.
While Jen did do guest stints on Dirt and South Park, I think that this upcoming guest spot on 30 Rock will really be a great way to remind the TV viewing audience that she is a very funny actress. She was integral to making Friends the huge success that it was/is and I really do miss that part of her. In recent years, she has moved so far away from her role as Rachel Green that, for me, has lessened her appeal. Whether it’s fair or not, it was that role that really endeared her to me and made me a fan of hers. I am very much looking forward to seeing her in this role, I bet she’s gonna hit it out of the park on this one. She can be a very funny physical comedian, from the looks of the pictures coming out of the 30 Rock set she’s really gonna turn it out for this role. So whadd y’all think? Are any of y’all looking forward to Jen’s guest spot on 30 Rock? Does anybody care?
