Sheriff Country Star Matt Lauria Made His TV Debut On A Hit NBC Sitcom

Long before hitting the streets of Edgewater as Nathan Boone in Sheriff Country, Matt Lauria guest-starred in one of the funniest and best-written sitcoms ever.

Sheriff Country Star Matt Lauria Made His TV Debut On A Hit NBC Sitcom

In 2007, Matt Lauria made his television debut on NBC's hit sitcom 30 Rock. Despite his brief appearance, Lauria's presence was significant - he shared the screen with a Hollywood icon and engaged in a daring physical scene. This memorable role came on his first wedding anniversary, despite the unexpected nature of the gig. During the filming, Lauria had to adjust to a last-minute script change that required him to perform a shirtless scene alongside two A-list actors.

After flubbing a line, Alec Baldwin, who played Jack Donaghy, offered him some invaluable advice: "Come on, kid, you got a long career ahead of you. You gotta get this!" This early acting opportunity marked the beginning of Lauria's successful career, leading to roles in shows such as Lipstick Jungle and Friday Night Lights.
