We haven’t seen Tina Fey take a leading TV role ever since 30 Rock wrapped up, but she’s finally ready for a big comeback! The nine-time Emmy winner will return in Netflix’s upcoming comedy series The Four Seasons, which she’ll also write and produce.

The Four Seasons draws inspiration from the 80s movie of the same name, led by Hollywood legends Alan Alda, Carol Burnett, Jack Weston, and Rita Moreno. It centered on three couples from New York City who take vacation by each other’s side every season.

In addition to coming on board as one of the leads, Fey will also serve as one of the show’s co-creators, writers, and executive producers. She co-created it with her fellow 30 Rock alums Lang Fisher and Tracey Wigfield, who will also executive produce this series with David Miner, Eric Gurian, and Jeff Richmond.

Fey hasn’t played a leading TV role ever since 30 Rock wrapped up in 2013, but she’s been keeping busy. She previously collaborated with Netflix on the hit comedy series Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and went on to executive produce Peacock’s Girls5eva. On the acting front, she most recently starred in Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building and will soon appear in the musical version of Mean Girls, which she also wrote.
