A new 30 Rock thread because I can't find the old one

(he might very well be pointing at everyone behind him)

haha ya i thought he was pointing to jenna but it would be great if it was to self...have to go watch again

he was definitely pointing at himself

Creepy Don Knotts face, creepy Hitler youth haircut

Creepy face, RIDICULOUS haircut

love how kenneth's welcome song is still going post-jump cut

what does the red writing on liz's press clipping say? __ings

haaa "who said i've been alive forever"

great episode...does anyone remember what liz's name was on the cover of the chinese bootleg version of "dealbreakers"?? that killed me and i can't come up with it now

lesbian yellow sour fruit

man this show

this epi was def better than the previous ones this season. still not as loltastic as earlier seasons but i think that's maybe cause i have a handle on its M.O. and so can see most of the jokes coming.

you are so smart!

still laughing at "I'm gonna eat a bowl of cherries and some ghost meat" myself

god i knew someone would take that that way. seriously go fuck yourself you insecure fuck.

play nice, children

hope this helps!

i mean you can either read it as "ok the show certainly has a defined style and this guy is in tune with it and maybe it matches his sense of humor fairly closely" OR you can go the "omg he thinks he's soooo smart" route. grow up.

easy! fwiw, i think plenty of the jokes are telegraphed/verging on dad-joke territory, but a) they're hilarious and b) just as many ~aren't~

can i just say that for some reason the idea of "ghost meat" is so gross to me - such a weird & creepy thing to think about

i thought it was goose meat

no i read it as, this show isn't funny anymore because i'm so smart

foie ghost

just googled it--ghost meat confirmed

i love this show

que it was a PACMAN joke iirc

ie no geese

duh i am so stupid

def. not as smart as 'granny dainger'

last wednesday he was like 'sigh i guess we're getting a ghost meat joke tomorrow siiiiiiiigh'

yeah the awesome thing about this show is it's just PACked with jokes that you don't always get the first time around

only thing more predictible is ile defensiveness and looking to paint people in the most negative light possible.

ile dfensivensss = god i knew someone would take that that way. seriously go fuck yourself you insecure fuck.

lighten up!

i guess we should have just patted you on the back

because you have a handle on this show by... what season is it?

yes cause rather than just remarking on how i've grown accustomed to the show's humor and so it doesn't hit me as strong as it did initially (which has happened with every show ever) it's clear that i wanted a pat on the back.

why are you still doing it

*pat*

when Kenneth opened the pizza box it was full of ~waffles~

that was fucking excellent

yeah that was actually an amazing gag to me

really the whole thing about him being ~ancient and immortal~ was weirdly hilarious

(don't know if someone mentioned it upthread, i opened up the thread before watching the episode and just bookmarked it w/o reading so i wouldn't have any jokes ruiend)

y'all need to take a trip to the Chuckle Hut yo

like it sorta felt like they were overdoing it but the waffle joke sorta dissipated whatever they were doing

really the whole thing about him being ~ancient and immortal~ was weirdly hilarious

also the prospect of him taking over NBC completely

the waffles gag was amazing

waffles invite

i think plenty of the jokes are telegraphed/verging on dad-joke territory, but a) they're hilarious and b) just as many ~aren't~

this is true, but they're also great at the bait and switch, like, I knew there were gonna be gags involving Jenna and Tracy's shirts, but every time I tried to guess what they'd be I was wrong and pleasantly surprised

^^^ totally! they know that nerds are half-smugly anticipating the punchline (guilty), so the switch is even funnier

really the whole thing about him being ~ancient and immortal~ was weirdly hilarious

Kinda wondering if this, coupled with the "VAMPYRA!" thing he did to jenna last episode is setting up some kind a kenneth is a vampire true blood thing?
