So are Kimmy Schmidt and 30 Rock actually in the same universe? Will we get to see more 30 Rock characters on Kimmy?

We went to Tina Fey herself and...

Nope! Sorry. According to Fey, the worlds must not ever be the same.

"The only reason we have to keep the universes separate now is because of Jane Krakowski, really," Tina Fey tells me. "The universe would implode because Jane Krakowski is a part of [Kimmy]."

Krakowski, of course, plays two totally different characters on the two shows.

Fey added that they did consider having 30 Rock's Kenneth walk by in the background for a "fun cameo", but again, universe implosion. And we wouldn't want that. We have so much life to live, people.
