30 Rock Synopsis: Emmy®-winner Tina Fey writes, executive produces and stars as writer Liz Lemon in 30 Rock, an irreverent, wildly funny, Emmy®-winning workplace comedy set behind-the-scenes of a live variety show. The series is told through the comedic voice of Fey and features the inimitable and Emmy®-winning Alec Baldwin as Jack Donaghy, the brash network executive who turns Liz's show (and life) upside down with his meddling ways. Set in New York City, 30 Rock also stars Tracy Morgan, Jane Krakowski, Scott Adsit, and Jack McBrayer, and boasts a cavalcade of guest appearances from some of the most respected and recognizable faces in comedy.

Chris Parnell can make the most insane dialog sound normal and reasonable.

"I suppose...but then you'd have to register as a motor vehicle" is such a great 30-rock line: completely out of left-field while being said in a very serious, assured manner.

[@kittytheflcatmom9566]

It's a disgrace that Chris Parnell was never even nominated for ANY award for guest appearance! Of all the guests who were nominated (Jon Hamm, Will Arnett, Dean Winters, etc), no one deserved it more than Parnell IMHO. The other actors are extremely talented...not taking anything away from them. But CP was just on a different level with Dr. Spaceman!

[@jennyng2994]

I feel like “guest” nominations are unfortunately reserved for those who are more widely recognized. Even if these smaller side character actors are super talented, they always get pushed to the side.

[@n3uro42]

Chris Parnell is the best deadpan actor hands down.

[@PeaceToday2011]

Chris Parnell is one of the best at doing the "air of authority" voice while spouting the most deranged lunacy. The number of times Dr Spaceman has Jack unnecessarily remove clothing, combined with the fact he is a pill mill doctor reminds me of John Mulaney's Dr Michael, with him having John take his shirt off for no reason.

[@chrisdalton5646]

Nice, good call.

I've always loved Chris Parnell. So underrated. This character was based on an SNL skit in which Will Ferrell plays the 'out-of-left-field' doctor and Parnell plays a parent alongside Molly Shannon. It's also the introduction of the curse word 'vondruke!'
