NEW YORK -Jennifer Aniston's big '30 Rock' cameo will show the former 'Friends' actress and current tabloid favorite as a "free-spirited, 'Fatal Attraction'-like stalker," creator and executive producer Tina Fey tells PEOPLE.
The New York-based series, which begins its third season in October, stars Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin in a behind-the-scenes, sometimes self-directed spoof of a television network and the huge corporation that owns it. The show has won a modest but devoted following, and critical raves. Awards include Golden Globes, a Peabody and last year's Emmy for outstanding comedy series.
With its show-biz slant, it has become a haven for guest appearances by big names from entertainment — even politics, including Al Gore.
Another of the six-member "Friends" troupe, David Schwimmer, had a "30 Rock" guest shot last season.

Celebrity TV Casting

    Emilio Estevez cast in 'Two and a Half Men' (CBS)
    The 'Mighty Ducks' star will play brother Charlie Sheen's old drinking buddy in an upcoming episode. The pair's dad has also guest starred on the hit comedy.

    Danneel Harris cast in 'How I Met Your Mother' (CBS)
    She'll play the (very hot) sister to Ted's fiancee Stella (Sarah Chalke) on a episode to air during November sweeps. Another conquest for Barney? Perhaps. But we wouldn't be shocked if she somehow comes between the (possible) future Mr. and Mrs. Moseby.

    George Clooney NOT cast in 'ER' (NBC)
    Despite how badly showrunner David Zabel wants to page Dr. Ross back to 'ER' for it's 15th and final season, George Clooney still says thanks ... but no thanks.

    Mary McDonnell cast in 'Grey's Anatomy' (ABC)
    The 'Battlestar Gallactica' star is in final negotiations to join the medical drama for a three- to five- episode arc this fall/winter.

    Scott Wolf cast in 'CSI: NY' (CBS)
    The 'Party of Five' alum joins Chris Daughtry and Rumer Willis in the show's 100th episode. They all play people named Mac Taylor -- yep, a name shared by show lead Gary Sinise. Wouldn't be so bad, except there's a serial killer who's decided he doesn't really like Mac Taylors, so he's offing them one by one.

    William Fichtner cast in 'Night & Day' (TNT)
    He's signed on as the lead -- an agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms -- in '24' creator Joel Surnow's pilot. Don't worry, though -- there are currently no plans to kill of Fichtner's Mahone on 'Prison Break.' Fichtner will only star on the show should 'Prison' not return for a fifth season.

    Anthony Edwards cast in 'ER' (NBC)
    Dr. Mark Greene is returning to 'ER,' via flashback. Anthony Edwards was killed off the long-running hospital drama back in 2002 (it was a tumor), but will make an appearance in the show's final season in a scene with new regular Angela Bassett. Sadly, it seems George Clooney won't join him.

    Oprah Winfrey cast in '30 Rock' (NBC)
    She'll appear as herself on an upcoming episode of the Emmy-winning sitcom.

    Seth Green cast in 'My Name Is Earl' & 'Heroes' (NBC)
    On 'Earl,' he'll play Buddy Zaks, a former Make-a-Wish child whose dream of starring in an action movie was ruined by Earl. And he and buddy Breckin Meyer are in for a multi-episode stint as a pair of comic book geeks on 'Heroes.'

    Lauren Conrad cast in 'Greek' (ABC Family)
    The leading lady of MTV's 'The Hills' will give the accepted definition of "acting" a go -- though she won't have to stretch much -- when she plays herself in a dream sequence for 'Greek's' second season finale on Oct. 28.

Since "Friends" concluded its highly successful 10-year run in 2004, Aniston has concentrated on films, including "Friends with Money," "The Break-Up."

It will be good to see Jennifer back on tv. Shes a good actress, and a sweet lady. I dont understand what all the nasty comments about her are all about. I think some may think she dates alot? She could date any man she wants, but dont. She has more class than most people do, and shes talented, sweet, and beautiful. Its the woman here that are eat up with jealously when it comes to Jennifer.

What Jen needs is to make porn flicks from now on. That would be the best career move for her right about now. Why you ask? easy, she should do for a living what she doesn't want the public to know about her behind close doors. Which is what you ask? that she is a tame middle of the road ****. Why you think Brad dumped her for Angelina? Hope I've been clear enough.
