Alec Baldwin has decided to not run for mayor of NYC and is staying put on 30 Rock. Thank God! I think he may have realized you can’t have public outbursts and be mayor of a big city. He said in his podcast, “I’ve lost my appetite (re: mayor). “I’ve got a good job,” he said. “Is it the most creative thing in the world? Am I doing The Insider with Michael Mann? Am I doing some edgy, like finely chiseled social drama? No. Am I doing ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’? No. I’m doing a sitcom. But we have fun, and it’s a family. Give this up for what? I give up money and fame and position and success; I give up this wonderful life I have now in exchange for the chance to really change things? Yeah, I’m not quite sure you can anymore.”

Thank God he decided to stay on that show. 30 Rock wouldn’t be the same without him…just like The Office isn’t the same without Steve Carell.

I love him.

    Yes, I love him on 30 Rock because he’s a great actor but he sucks as a person. At least he was smart enough to realize he can’t run for public office with that temper of his.

    If he had left 30 Rock, I would have cried real tears.

    What a wonderful gift for the city of New York. There are 8 million people in NYC, Alec Baldwin pointed out that he had 600 thou followers on Twitter, which is world wide. Seems he is not quite as popular as he would like to be despite all of his rants & endless patting himself on the back for his charity. He is such a giver, & yet he lives & works in the city but won’t pay taxes to the city. I guess that would have came out had he ran.
