But he may come back...
30 Rock will feature the death of Kim Jong-Il in its storylines.
The last season had Jack Donaghy's wife Avery Jessup (Elizabeth Banks), kidnapped by the North Korean dictator, played by Margaret Cho.
Producer Robert Carlock said: "Jack's love life is pretty complicated and it just got more complicated because I think, technically, Avery is the First Lady of North Korea. We sort of went back to the script because we'd already shot eight or nine episodes and we realized that luckily we hadn't referred to Kim Jong-Il by name yet – just to North Korea in general. Maybe we'll have Margaret Cho showing up again having faked her death, because she wants to get a gig on a morning talk show."
