That’s great, but what about the Pips? 30 Rock returns for a one-night stand tonight

It’s a new year, but the same old writers strike so don’t get too excited.
Yes, there is a new episode of 30 Rock on tonight at 8:30 p.m. ET., and Gladys Knight and Edie Falco round out what has been a season of zany (Carrie Fisher) and brilliant (Will Arnett) star-caliber guest appearances. That’s right, Gladys Knight, of The Pips fame.
I have no idea why, when every network is starved for scripted programming, NBC decided to sit on this episode for a month. At least they’re airing it in its normal time slot rather than dropping it randomly elsewhere in the week like they’re doing with those two episodes of Chuck. But I digress.
The suits at The Peacock must have tremendous faith in this one because they didn’t even bother to title it, instead just dubbing it “Episode 210”, for season 2, episode 10.
Jack (Alec Baldwin) meets with German TV executives to close a deal on the purchase of the largest cable network in North America. Motivated by Jack’s financial advice, Liz (Tina Fey) decides to invest in real estate, but must appear before a co-op board to lobby for the apartment she loves. Jack and C.C. (Guest star Edie Falco) continue their long distance relationship with rendezvous in various cities. Meanwhile, Tracy (Tracy Morgan) buys a cappuccino machine for the “TGS with Tracy Jordan� staff and stations it on Kenneth’s (Jack McBrayer) desk. Kenneth, who calls hot liquids “the devil’s temperature,� tries coffee for the first time, and is immediately addicted. Special guests include Edie Falco and Gladys Knight.
Look for my recap tonight or tomorrow.
