That remains to be seen, actually -- Morgan hasn't announced a new major project yet, either on TV or film.

He's doing voice roles in a couple of films currently in production, but neither really counts as his next big step -- indeed, one is in "Rio 2," a sequel to the animated comedy he did in his spare time while working on "30 Rock."

Q: What was Lucille Ball's last role? Didn't she do another series later on in her career?

Lucille Ball, who will be best known forever as the titular star of the fittingly named, golden-age sitcom "I Love Lucy," starred in a few other shows afterwards. Her last role was in one of those, the also appropriately titled "Life With Lucy."

That one, unfortunately, was not a hit like "I Love Lucy," and only lasted one 13-episode season before being yanked from the ABC airwaves a few months after it debuted in 1986. Ball died three years later, at age 77.

Criminal Minds, on CBS
