The fifth season of 30 Rock, an American television comedy series on the NBC network in the United States, began airing on September 23, 2010. NBC announced on March 5, 2010 that 30 Rock would be returning for a fifth season in the 2010–2011 television season.[3]
On July 31, 2010, NBC announced that an episode of 30 Rock's fifth season would be filmed and broadcast live, twice, on the evening of October 14, 2010. The two separate recordings resulted in a live telecast of the episode to American viewers in both the West and East Coast. The episode was a ratings success and was met with very positive reviews. [4][5][6]

Tina Fey portrays Liz Lemon, the head writer of a fictitious live sketch-comedy television series TGS.[7] The TGS cast consists of two main actors.

Jack "Danny" Baker (Cheyenne Jackson) is the newest TGS cast member. Jack McBrayer plays the naïve NBC page Kenneth Parcell.[8][9] Scott Adsit acts as the witty and wise TGS producer, Pete Hornberger.[8][10] Judah Friedlander portrays trucker hat-wearing staff writer Frank Rossitano.[8][11] Alec Baldwin plays the NBC network executive Jack Donaghy.[8] Donaghy's full corporate title for the majority of the season is "Head of East Coast Television and Microwave Oven Programming".[8][12] Keith Powell plays the Harvard University alumnus and TGS staff writer James "Toofer" Spurlock.[13][8] Katrina Bowden acted as writers' assistant Cerie Xerox.[13][8] The cast features recurring characters, including Maulik Pancholy as Jonathan,[14] Grizz Chapman as Grizz Griswold,[15] Kevin Brown as "Dot Com" Slattery,[16] and John Lutz as J.D. Lutz.[17]

The season is set to air at 8:30 p.m., after Community and before The Office on Thursdays.[18] On November 15, 2010, it was announced 30 Rock would move to 10:00 p.m., following Parks and Recreation starting January 20, 2011.[19]
