DEVELOPMENT TRACKING (updatishness)
From the exceedingly informative Futon Critic
UNTITLED TINA FEY PROJECT (NBC) - Four-time Emmy nominee Alec Baldwin ("Will & Grace") is in final talks to join the cast of the comedy pilot, about the head writer of an "SNL"-esque variety show (Tina Fey) who has to manage her relationships with the show's volatile star and executive producer. Baldwin is believed to be playing said executive producer, Jack Donaghy, who's described in the casting notice as: "45s. Handsome and impeccably dressed. He is the new VP of development for NBC/GE/Universal...etc. He is totally uncensored, saying whatever comes to his mind, and he believes he has everyone figured out. Very corporate."

I'm a big fan of Baldwin and Christopher Walken's repeated appearences on SNL, so how appropriate is this? Can. Not. Wait. Assuming it doesn't get squeezed out by the Sorkin show.
