Recent Screen Actors Guild Awards winners, Tina Fey and Jon Hamm have joined forces to appear in the upcoming episode of "30 Rock". A sneak peek of Hamm's role as Dr. Drew Baird has been given, through a clip where Liz goes to his place to deliver a mail.
The episode will be called "Generalissimo", a term which is a reference to a character in a Mexican telenovela that Elisa's grandmother watches. Jack wonders why his new lover's grandma doesn't like him and finds out that he bears a resemblance to the telenovela's villain. This is sneak peeked in the other clip.
Also in the episode airing February 5, Tracy goes partying with the new TGS interns, but he refuses to admit that he cannot keep up with them.
In a joint interview with Entertainment Weekly, Tina Fey and Jon Hamm spoke about their on-set romance. "He plays a divorced gentleman who lives in my building. I meet him because I start getting his mail by accident and I start opening it and making assumptions about him based on it. Then I believe the technical term for what happens is 'shenanigans'," Fey said and Hamm added, "Also high jinks. Believe it or not, there are misunderstandings."
