TGS with Tracy Jordan." Lemon constantly has her hands full, juggling corporate interference from Donaghy and off-the-handle star antics from Jordan, all while attempting to salvage her own personal life. Also rounding out the cast are Jane Krakowski ("Jenna Maroney") as the co-star of "
TGS"; Scott Adsit ("Pete Hornberger") as the variety show's producer; Jack McBrayer ("Kenneth Parcell") as the over-eager and effortlessly endearing NBC page; Judah Friedlander ("Frank") as the sardonic slacker on the writing staff; Katrina Bowden ("Cerie") as Lemon's young, flighty assistant; Keith Powell ("Toofer") as the sophisticated yet sarcastic Harvard-alum writer; and Lonny Ross ("Josh Girard") as the naive yet lovable "
TGS" writer/performer.
