[Blind Gossip] These two actors starred together on a television show that just wrapped its final season.
On screen, the two main characters loved and respected each other. Off screen… it was a parallel universe.
They could not stand each other! As soon as a scene concluded, they would not so much as speak or look each other in the eye.
We don’t have anything wild to report, like a screaming match or a physical fight. They just stayed away from each other. It was just a matter of two big egos clashing on a personal level. They each did their work their way, and when it came time for the cameras to roll, they put aside their personal differences, got into their characters, did their jobs, and went home. It’s actually quite a testament to their acting skills that the viewers saw great chemistry on screen.
It does provide some explanation, though, as to why the two of them rarely did appearances together, and never hung out together outside of work.

Asks for an actor and actress, not two actresses
Lol!
LOL
Considering they lived together for most of Gossip Girl’s run i’ll say no.
Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin? Or has another show wrapped?
it says two actors…usually they will specify if one is an actress.
nevermind…i didn’t see that it says actress at the bottom…
Apparently the word “actress” is now as offensive as “secretary”! I noticed at the SAG Awards they referred to them as female actors. Really? Political correctness is so stupid.
THIS!
I’ve heard Tina and Alec couldn’t stand each other. Tina is supposed to be a pain to work with.
+1
It’s Tina Fey but the guy is Tracey Morgan.
Tina Fey and Tracy Morgan
+1
I think Tina and Alec are friendly. Remember when she went on a talk show and told everyone that she made him download Word with Friends so he would play it with her? She also wanted him to play Jack because she liked working with him on SNL. Tina and Tracey, however, apparently stopped speaking after his homophobic stand-up routine a while back.
Tina Fey went to Alec’s wedding…it isn’t them.
Yea, 30 Rock was pretty much Tina’s baby and she got Alec to sign on, which was a great casting coup. Tracey is MIA all the time, he has issues. It has to be him.
I think you’re right. I’ve seen another BI that say they don’t get along very well. Doesn’t preclude her going to his wedding.
Actor: Joshua Jackson as Peter Bishop
Actress: Anna Torv as Olivia Dunham
This guess is based on the clues in the BI. Fringe had a parallel universe in the plot and Peter and Olivia were a couple who loved and respected each other.
This. Given all the clues, this is MUCH more likely than any of the other guesses.
Completely this. Now is when I reveal my geeky roots and say this is entirely known in the Fringe fandom, and has been discussed for years.
I’ll also add good on them for being professionals, and good for John Noble, since he’s always seemed very friendly, affectionate even, with both of them. It can’t have been a rollicking good time to be working such long hours with people who don’t like each other all that much.
DING.DING
Fringe. Anna Torv and Blair Brown. Or Anna Torv and Leonard Nimoy. The only reason I’m not saying Josh Jackson is because he has a great relationship with John Noble (who has been robbed of an Emmy EVERY year he’s done the show!!) and is said to be a great guy (sigh). So I’m placing all the blame on Fauxlivia.
Well, I’m sure Josh can be a prick too when he wants to be, but I’ve heard talk that Anna wasn’t always easy to deal with either. Also, their personalities seem really different. She’s reserved and he’s hyper. They kept it off the screen, and that’s what matters in the end.
Well said SixtyEight. Josh and Anna are very different in alot of ways. You always get different personalities in the work place, that is always going to be the case. They had a business relationship and were known to have said nice things about each other.
Agree with this guess. I saw an interview where several actors, including Joshua Jackson were talking about how to deal with differences on the set and when another actor described how he works with his co-star, Joshua said (paraphrasing), “Wow, that’s extremely healthy and not common.”
YES!
THIS! This was my first thought when reading “parallel universe.” Dead giveaway. Although… how could anyone NOT get along with Joshua Jackson?
Yep, this sounds right.
I think so too because of the parallel universe hint
I concur.
Actor: Joshua Jackson as Peter Bishop
Actress: Anna Torv as Olivia Dunham
This guess is based on the clues in the BI. Fringe had a parallel universe in the plot and Peter and Olivia were a couple who shared a mutual respect as partners and then love blossomed.
I think you’re right. A lot of people might think Josh Jackson and John Noble because the clue says “two actors”, but a) it could be meant in a gender-neutral way, b) Jackson and Noble have appeared together and seem to be real friends, c) the picture, if it’s a clue, shows a man and a woman.
Agreed, John Noble has always seemed to be on great terms with all of his co-stars.
I was going to say Blake Lively and Penn Badgely simply from the part where it said the show rapped it’s final season but I’m not entirely sure.
This
Actor: Alec Baldwin
Actress: Tina Fey
Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin
Obviously Fringe – Anna Torv (Olivia) and Joshua Jackson (Peter)
Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey
Alec Baldwin
Tina Fey
Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey?
Jackson & Torv from Fringe
Although I am going to pretend they realy liked each other. It’s better that way.
Ed Westwick and Leighton Meester for sure.
That was my first thought, but they were just doing some promotion together for Harry Winston.
They were in Thailand (I think) together recently.
Zachary Levi and Yvonne (whatever-her-name-is) from Chuck
Its for sure not them. Chuck ended over a year ago so this blind would be a bit old. Plus, Yvonne Strahovski went to Zachary Levi’s NERD HQ charity event at Comic Con. There are fan videos of them laughing together with their friends. If you watch the bloopers they look like they got along great and laughed a lot. The whole cast really. Maybe they don’t hang out in their day to day private lives but they are obviously decent friends.
The timing of this post (Fringe just finished airing their last episode) and the “parallel universe” hint lean towards Fringe. If you watch their bloopers they are hardly in one together and are never just seen having fun.
Blake Lively and Leighton Meester
This!
It’s said “Actor”,and Actress. So it’s a guy and a girl who were involved on the show.
John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer
Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey. This rumor has been out there for years.
Actor: Alec Baldwin
Actress: Tina Fey
Easiest BG ever!
Tina was at Alec’s wedding. I would classify that as them hanging out together outside of work so this BI cannot be about them. Plus Tina was the first person Alec thanked when he won his SAG award. Why would he thank someone he couldn’t stand?
Joshua Jackson and Anna Torv from Fringe. It did seem like they got a bit more distant as the series progressed, but never would have imagined this.
Actor: Alec Baldwin
Actress: Tina Fey
this makes me think of The Office.
Pam and Jim, perhaps?? (Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski)
Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin
Actor: Alec Baldwin or Tracy Morgan
Actress: Tina Fey
This. “Parallel universe” refers to the fact that 30 Rock is sort autobiographical, with Liz Lemon as the parallel to real life Tina Fey and Tracy Jordan the parallel to real life Tracy Morgan. There was an older BG blind too that discusses the fact that they don’t get along:
http://blindgossip.com/?p=36426
Alec Baldwin
Tina Fey
30 Rock
Tina Fey & Alec Baldwin
Actor: Joshua Jackson
Actress: Anna Torv
Show: Fringe
Clue is “parallel universe”, in Fringe there are about 3 parallel universes. There are also rumours that these two don’t get on in real life.
I think this is 30 Rock, with Tracy Morgan for the actor, and Tina Fey as the actress.
Actor: Joshua Jackson
Actress: Anna Torv
Actor: Ed Westwick
Actress: Leighton Meister
Actor: Patrick Dempsey
Actress: Ellen Pompeo
Just a guess.
First, Grey’s Anatomy didn’t end, second, it says that they didn’t do much scenes together… So not them..
Tina Fey & Alec Baldwin?
ed westwick and leighton meester? i hope not though.
Final season, parallel universe point to this being Fringe. Therefore Joshua Jackson and Anna Torv – they really have to be great actors to have pulled off such chemistry while not liking each other.
Joshua Jackson and Anna Torv from Fringe. Clues: “parallel universe” and the season just wrapped a few weeks ago. Plus, they plats on-screen couple/coworkers.
“A Parallel Universe” – “show that just wrapped its final season”? – sounds like “Fringe” to me. So i guess:
Actor – Joshua Jackson
Actress – Anna Torv
Also: I can´t remember a single interview they did together…
Ha… I do remember one interview they did together, for some morning TV show. They might have just been dragged from set from an early morning call, but it was soooooo awkward, because neither of them had much to say and they both looked like they desperately wanted to be anywhere but on camera with each other.
But at events, they never were seen together, never were photographed together, even in group photos they were never next to each other, rarely addressed each other.
That said: when doing group interviews they usually seemed happy to discuss the show and reasonably polite with each other while doing it. I also remember Josh saying some very complimentary things about her acting on a radio show once not too long ago.
LOL. The interview they did for the morning show, Anna said at the beginning that they had the start of the flu. They were answering questions put to them and had plenty to say. The questions put to them were awkward.
Most of the interviews done for Fringe all through the seasons seemed to be either individual ones or group ones. I have no idea why that was, but that seemed to be the way the show’s PR unit decided to do it. Josh complimented Anna on her acting quite a few times actually. They were known for addressing each other in interviews.
30 rock? Alec Baldwin, Tina Fey, Tracey Morgan?
30 Rock
Alec Baldwin
Tina Fey
The pic sort of makes me think Penn Badgley
Baldwin
Fey
john krasinski & jenna fischer aka jim and pam on the office
The only show I can think of that just ended is Gossip Girl
Penn Badgley and Chase Crawford? Only because that looks like Dan and Serena in the Pic?
It was widely known that Blake Lively and Blair Waldorf(Can’t think of her name right now) didn’t get along, they admitted it over the years. And it says Actors, which I would assume means guys. Even though if they “loved” each other, maybe it’s talking about a gay couple on the show.- Or Dan and his dad Rufus on the show? Help me out here everyone.
Actor=Joshua Jackson
Actress=Anna Torv
Fringe?
30 Rock
Alec Baldwin
Tina Fey
Dang. This is a Fringe reference–parallel universe.
Going with Joshua Jackson and Anna Torv.
Pam and Jim from The Office?
Or Tina Fey and Tracey Morgan from 30 Rock
Fringe, Joshua Jackson, Anna Torv or John Nobel? parallel universe being the hint but this is so sad.
Ohh I saw actress so it would definitely be Joshua Jackson and Anna Torv for Fringe.
I’m just gonna say Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski only because the photo reminds me of Krasinsky.
Television Show: 30 Rock
Actor: Alec Baldwin
Actress: Tina Fey
The show is obviously Fringe, hint:”parallel universe”
The show has three main actors, the actress is Anna Torv. The actor is either Joshua Jackson or John Noble. The photo indicates it’s probably Jackson. Too bad, I liked that show.
Joshua Jackson and Anna Torv from Fringe (which I think just had its series finale). Would explain the sci-fi “parallel universe” reference.
Though I did see them on a panel together at Comic-Con a few years ago and they seemed to get along just fine.
Maybe, but at a major appearance like that, pros ought to act like pros and leave any personal issues at the door. I think the BI is referring to a pattern of not appearing together. In contrast to how Noble and Jackson consistently gave the impression of great pals.
When the cast appeared at upfronts, comic con and other press things, it was mostly done as a group or at upfronts, at least John, Anna and John, or whoever was available. The show had three leads and three supporting formost of the time and the show’s PR unit always portrayed the show as such.
30 Rock
Alec Baldwin
TIna Fey
Television Show: The office
Actor: john krasinski
Actress: jenna fischer
i hope i’m wrong tho!!
Fringe. Anna Torv and Joshua Jackson.
Fringe
Joshua Jackson
And whoever the blonde girl is that was his main costar is my guess
GG – Blair and Chuck! aka Leighton and Ed
Blair & Chuck
Alec Baldwin
Tina Fey
Fringe. Anna Torv & either Joshua Jackson or John Noble. The BI says they “loved and respected” each other, not necessarily that they were in a relationship, so I’m guessing it could be either of the guys.
This is obviously my babies, sigh. It’s a secret to voices.
Parallel Universe
Television Show: Fringe
Actor: Joshua Jackson
Actress: Anna Torv
but I don’t think it was about their egos clashing, I think they are like day and night.
Fey & Baldwin?
Tina Fey and Tracy Morgan
fringe for sure:
joshua jackson and anna torv? or w walter?
30 Rock, Tina Fey and either Alec Baldwin or Tracy Morgan
Television show: 30 Rock
Actor: Alec Baldwin
Actress: Tina Fey
Show: Gossip Girl
Actor: Ed Westwick
Actress: Leighton Meester
No! I correct myself!
Joshua Jackson
Anna Torv
Good chemistry but no connection off screen!
I first thought this might be someone from 30 Rock but they all have appeared on LNJF together a bunch of time and seem to totally love each other. Plus just last night at the SAG awards both Tina and Alec thanked each other and they’re the leads so I think that rules them out. Thankfully! I love that show.
I’m not sure what else just ended though…I’m really puzzled by this one
Blaine and Kurt on Glee.
Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey. 30 Rock
First time poster.
I think it’s Alec Baldwin, Tina Fey and the show is 30 Rock.
The show just wrapped and it says that the two main characters loved and respected each other–which is the relationship between Liz Lemon and Jack on 30 Rock.
Fringe
Joshua Jackson
Anna Torb
Its sad because I loved their show but It is a testament to how good these two are at their jobs.
No idea if true but solely because the title says “Parallel Universe” I’m guessing Fring, Joshua Jackson, and Anna Torv.
Oops-meant Fringe, not Fring
30 rock
Alec Baldwin
Tina Fey
Or
Private practice
Benjamin Bratt
Kate Walsh
Television Show: The Office
Actor: John Krasinski
Actress: Jenna Fischer
Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey
or
Tina Fey and Tracey Morgan… I think it’s the latter just because they are NEVER together. At least Alect and Tina are together in some places.
Show: Fringe
Actress: Anna Torv
Actor: Joshua Jackson
Changing my answer to Anna Torv & Joshua Jackson
It’s probably Tracy Morgan because Tina was at Alec’s wedding last year.
30 Rock/Tina Fey/Tracy Morgan
Fringe
Joshua Jackson
Anna Torv
Television Show: 30 Rock
Actor: Alec Baldwin
Actress: Tina Fey
I really hope it isn’t them.
30 Rock
Tina Fey
Alec Baldwin
Tina Fey & Alec Baldwin
The obv choice is Tina and Alec.
Probably wrong…but the parallel universe clue….Fringe? Anna Torv and Joshua Jackson?
30 Rock
Alec Baldwin
Tina Fey
Obviously Fringe (parallel universe), but I don’t watch the show, so Joshua Jackson and (insert female lead)?
The office
Jim and Pam
First time poster. Been waiting to post till I’m pretty sure of an answer.
Television Show: Fringe
Actor: Joshua Jackson
Actress: Anna Torv
Fringe just wrapped and the show featured time in a parallel universe. Their characters were in a relationship together. I haven’t seen many pictures of them at events.
Parallel universe…Josh Jackson and Anna Torv.
But WTF?
This really sounds like Tina Fey (Liz) and Alec Baldwin (Jack) from 30 Rock. Last episode airs this Thursday both are known to be terrific actors. Sucks if its them there so good together on the show!
Television Show: Fringe
Actor: Joshua Jackson
Actress: Anna Torv
30 rock
alec baldwin
tina fey
The actors from Fringe, the clue parallel universe
- Joshua Jackson and Anna Torv
TV show – Mike & Molly
Actor: billy Gardell
Actress: Melissa McCarthy
Aww. This sounds just like David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson back in the day. Memories . . . Good thing they like/love each other now though.
Just guessing but…
Television show: 30 Rock
Actor: Alec Baldwin
Actress: Tina Fey
Could be totally wrong though!
Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin on 30 Rock
30 Rock
Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin or Tina Fey and Tracey Morgan
Longtime lurker, first time poster.
My gut says:
Television Show: 30 Rock
Actor: Alec Baldwin
Actress: Tina Fey
Sounds like Fringe(parallel universe clue). Anna Torv and Josh Jackson
The only television show I can think of that just warpped up is Gossip Girl and the guy in the pic has Penn Badgley hair. The woman in the pic seems to bee blonde or maybe brunette, it’s hard to tell (Blake Lively/Leighton Meester). Well, I have no other thoughts so…
T.V. Show: Gossip Girl
Actor: Penn Badgley
Actress: Blake Lively
The Fey/Baldwin pairing is interesting. I noticed at the SAG Awards last night he was not sitting with the cast from 30 Rock.
I don’t think it’s them because I’m kind of a Tina Fey fanatic, so I watch every interview and they’ve appeared together for 30 Rock multiple times and they seem to care about each other. Plus, Alec thanked Tina in his speech (he always does) and then during her speech he was laughing and there’s a picture of him hugging her when she won…
so I think it’s safe to say they like each other. Plus, she went to his wedding recently.
Serena and Dan Humphrey on GG!
i think it’s 30 rock…but tina fey and tracy morgan not alec baldwin…i’ve heard they haven’t really spoken since his homophobic rant at a comdey club.
Show: 30 Rock
Actor: Tracy Jordan
Actress: Tina Fey
30 Rock just finished filiming recently, and the last episode airs this week. There were rumors that after Tracy Jordan’s racist remarks this past year, Tina Fey forced him to apologize, then they couldn’t stand each other. There chemistry on-camera definitely doesn’t show any of that, though!
In recent interviews Tina and Tracy have been praising each other and on LNJF recently they were hugging and cuddling kind of…so I don’t think it’s them.
Harry Styles and Demi Lovato because those are the safe guesses these days
LOL!
Television Show: 30 rock
Actor: alec baldwin
Actress: tina fey
I heard actresses like to be referred to as actors now….
so in that case:
1) blake lively
2) leighton meester
It’s Joshua Jackson and Anna Torv from Fringe. Many fans knew about this for the last couple years, but it wasn’t gossiped about. But it was pretty obvious (well, to anyone who had eyes, that is) that they weren’t buddies. It was quite noticeable that they chose not to hang out with each other at public events. Seems like a Gillian Anderson-David Duchovny type thing.
It is definitely Torv and Jackson from Fringe.. Parallel Universe clue. This was one of my favorite shows, and this was not a well-guarded secret at all.
All fans knew about this. Anna was once the focus of the show and it shifted to Joshua Jackson and John Noble’s relationship. Jackson fought hard for this shift, as he believed he was the star from all of the fan worship for his character, Peter.
Jackson did all of his interviews without Torv and chose to only discuss his development and his relationship with Noble’s character, Walter.
Die-hard Olivia (Torv) fans were always up in arms about the shift in focus and story line. Recently, there were some episodes where she did not even merit 5 minutes in the story, if at all.
at least the shift happened in season 5. Olivia will always be my favorite character
Patsymine, you must be watching a different version of Fringe then, because Olivia was the main focus for most of the first four seasons and then spread evenly between Peter, Olivia and Walter over the last 13 eps in season 5.
The writers/producers write the story they want to write and to think that the actors have the clout to change the focus to what they want is laughable. Walter probably had a bigger role than initially, due to the wonderful acting and portrayal of Walter by John Noble. Again that’s a choice the producers made and nothing to do with Josh Jackson. Josh loved the P/W relationship, so what, it’s not going to change what the producers have in store or what they want to do storywise. It’s the writers/producers show and their the ones that make the decisions because it’s their show. The actors are there to bring that story to life, it’s not the actors show.
Josh Jackson talked about the P/W relationship alot but he also talked many times extensively about the P/O relationship and also what Olivia was going through. You only have to read his many interviews to see that. He has always talked about the show as being about a family, Walter Olivia and Peter, and never once about it only being about just his character.
The show seemed to do alot of their interviews individually and occasionally group ones, but mainly individual. Anna did most of her interviews over the cause of the show by herself as well. It’s well documented that she preferred altOlivia and the the altuniverse to Olivia, and she was always happy to bring them up when she could. There’s nothing wrong with that either. So, they both talked about what their favourite thing was on the show. I guess Anna can do that, but Josh can’t.
Windy…you’re very sweet but we all hafta do that every day at work. I don’t give them any extra points : )
The guys from the big bang theory
I’m going with Joshua Jackson and Anna Torv.
But it might be Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick.
its impossible be meester and westwick because recently they go thailand for promote something also chuck and blair isn’t respected each other they always in love.and they hang out more than other cast members..
it might be baldwin and fey however in sag awards they seem love and respect each other so much..
so proboblay jackson and torv.
Darryl Hall and John Oates! Oh wait. acting, acting! Taye Diggs and Kate Walsh for Private Practice.
This is not Tina Fey & Alec Baldwin – on any level. Check his twitter after SAG awards last night if not convinced. But completely not the case.
This is supposed to be Ed Westwick & Chace Crawford… True they do not get along now. On any level. But no scandalous story either. Just very different people.
I’m pretty sure this is Blake Lively and Leighton Meester. There are a million articles out there.
ture or not blind item about Joshua Jackson and Anna Torv.i found the time of Release this gossip odd, i hope not only who think that!!!!
