While we love the Oscars, Golden Globes, and Grammys, The Comedy Awards will offer a nice break from the snooty shows!

The nominees for the 2012 Comedy Awards have been released and Modern Family, 30 Rock, Bridesmaids, Crazy, Stupid, Love., and Louis C.K. lead the group with five nominations each.

Modern Family took home the best TV series gold last year and 30 Rock is back to try to snatch it away this year, along with Curb Your Enthusiasm, Parks and Rec, and newbie Happy Endings.

Bridesmaids has been mostly snubbed this awards season but they have several opportunities to take home some hardware with nods in Best Comedy, Best Film Director, Best Screenplay and a catfight for best actress between Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wiig.

Meow! Lolz!

2012 should be an exciting race for The Comedy Awards as 2011 was VERY good year for comedy!

But surprisingly, not by choice!

Although Tina Fey was set to appear on Lindsay Lohan's return to the Saturday Night Live stage this past weekend, the comedienne was forced to miss out - because her children were both under the weather!

Apparently, the actress had hoped that Fey - who, like, invented her cast her way back before she messed her up her life and career in 2004's Mean Girls - would appear in her opening monologue after reaching out to her personally, but at the last minute, the former head writer of the sketch series had turn it down!

Her representative explains:

Yes, please!

Tina Fey and Owen Wilson are both circling the Paul Weitz project Admission, which believe it or not, is a DRAMA, not a comedy.

Sources say that Tina is very close to signing on the film as Portia Nathan, a hard-working Ivy League admissions staff member who encounters a smart, but academically-challenged 17-year-old on a routine recruiting trip.

Owen is eyeing the role of the high school teacher who falls for Tina's character.

Once both stars give a definite yes, shooting for the film will begin this summer during Tina's break from 30 Rock.

Despite the fact that it's a drama, it actually sounds like it's right up both Tina and Owen's alley.

We just wonder if Tina could pull off a dramatic role. The gurl is so talented though, so of course, we're thinking YES!!

Wow!!

Tina Fey waltzed on up to the red carpet in a navy Carolina Herrara peplum dress.

And we think it fits her and her style perfectly!!

But we're especially loving the jewels!!

She's dazzling in platinum earrings with sixteen oval cut blue sapphires and sixteen emeralds!! Her ring is platinum with one sapphire, emeralds, and baguette diamonds -- all from Bulgari.

Welcome back, Maya! SNL has missed you so much!

Maya Rudolph will return to her old stomping grounds and host Saturday Night Live on February 18th.

The actress left the show in 2007 but has returned when other SNL alums, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, hosted.

She joins Jimmy Fallon and Ben Stiller as former alums who've hosted this season. Indie band Sleigh Bells will be her musical guest.

What characters will Maya bust out?! We're anxious to find out!

We wonder how much this ad cost!

As the network that broadcasted the Super Bowl, NBC had to some ad time to burn with its show promos.

With that said, they featured EVERY show!!!

From Liz Lemon and Jack Donaghy to the folks at Community to even The Today Show cast, every one chipped in to sing a tune welcoming viewers to the Super Bowl.

Check out the video above to see the show tune skillz of NBC's greatest!

Poor Jimmy, left out in the cold!

Just when you thought this meme needed to be taken out back and shot…

Tina Fey to the rescue!

Check out the absolutely HIGHlarious and very-much-needed latest addition to the Shit ______ Say series, Shit Liz Lemon Says!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

We want to go to there, too!

In fact, no more of these unless it's with any - or EVERY - other character from 30 Rock!

Ha!
