Trade Roundup: Tina Fey, Mandy Moore, Nick Offerman, Friends Reunion

It doesn't look like Fey will have an acting role in the film, which is probably good since it saves us all from spending money on a movie made solely for young children who enjoy the finer things in life.

Conan O'Brien Seeks Treatment on Lisa Kudrow's Web Series
