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.

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.
