"30 Rock" fans only have a few more days to wait until the show comes back from its winter hiatus on January 20. And now that it will air in a new 10PM ET timeslot, creator and star Tina Fey says viewers can expect to some creative shakeups.
And more Matt Damon.
A later timeslot means the show's writers can get away with more risqué stuff, and Fey told Entertainment Weekly that "It will be kind of exciting. ... We have been wondering: Can we do even weirder things?"
Given the high weirdness quotient of previous seasons -- The Generalissimo, Dr. Spaceman, the 'Live Show' -- it'll be fun to watch them raise the weird bar. But what about Matt Damon?
Fey's character, Liz Lemon, has had her fair share of weird and wonderful boyfriends in the past, but Fey confirmed that Damon will be back (albeit briefly) for another turn as Carol the pilot.
However, due to Damon's real-life work commitments Carol won't be around for long. "We are going to break up," Fey says. "It had to happen because he has to go make movies."
