I cannot believe this marks the 1000th. We have met some hugely talented people, tons of big stars and inspiring everyday heroes. We created a community and supported each other through lots of ups and downs — lots of ups and downs personally as well. We went through a pandemic together. We sent our audience to London, to Australia and through the NBC gift shop here at 30 Rock.”
She continued, “For 1000 episodes, we have laughed together, we have cried together with some beautiful stories, sang together with some people, danced together, celebrated and competed together. I’ve lost alone a lot –it’s OK — and along the way we found comfort in one another. Looking back, we’re all incredibly proud at what we’ve built and what we created. ”
