'30 Rock' Moves To Kabletown On Night Of NBC-Comcast Merger (VIDEO)

Art imitated life last night on "30 Rock," when the GE building debuted its new Kabletown logo the same night as the NBC-Comcast merger.

At the beginning of the episode below, Liz Lemon (Tina Fey) and Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin) head toward 30 Rockefeller Center as the big GE light goes out with a flicker and a giant red "K" replaces it.

"Wow. Out with the old. It seems like one of us should sing 'The Circle' Game right now," Tina Fey joked.

"30 years with GE," Donaghy said. "Now it's on to phase two."

Is it just me, or does that new logo remind anyone of the old Soviet Hammer and Sickle?

I prefer the "RCA" logo. Much classier.

Shouldn't it be KK Kabletown in keeping with the new right wing ownership.

Why couldn't they just call it Comcast? One of the better things about this show is that they actually refer to real companies instead of fake ones, and now they're doing the fake name thing too.

If they're not calling something by it's legal name, it's usually because they're calling it it's rightful name.

I want one of those "Cheese Gravy" Judah Friedlander hats, preferably one with the Kabletown logo on the back.

The C looks like a Muslim crescent. Oh, no....

Are we getting a foreshadowing of a new plot? One of CableTown's right-wing wingnut news anchors complains about the crescent and finds out the big boss is named Tariq.

I look forward to the many brilliant take downs of Kabletown, I mean Comcast on 30 Rock.
