Cristin Milioti: 5 Facts on the '30 Rock' Actress Who Stole the Show Last Night

Cristin Milioti rocked "30 Rock."

The up-and-coming actress gave a memorable performance on NBC's hit series last night that left the Web buzzing. She guest-starred as Abby Flynn, a female writer hired by Tina Fey's character Liz because of concerns that the fictional show, "TGS With Tracey Jordan," "hates women."

This was a great performance with a clever ending."

Here's a clip of her guest appearance:
