NBC, which will unveil its primetime schedule for next season to advertisers on Monday, this afternoon picked up a 13-episode season of “Community” and of “30 Rock” – the award winning-est of NBC’s Thursday comedy lineup once famously known as Must See TV, but these days better known as Self-Referential TV.

In a break from its usual filmed style, NBC's "30 Rock" went live Thursday night with an episode that was full of fun and, yes, very lively. As promised, the setup for the episode had boss Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin) delivering the bad news that, as a cost-cutting measure, "TGS," the fictitious show-within-a-show produced by Liz Lemon (series star Tina Fey), would henceforth be filmed, not broadcast live.

NBC says "30 Rock" is going live this fall.

A new season of “30 Rock” begins Thursday on NBC with comical reminders that the economic meltdown hasn’t blown over.
