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

This was a weird show/role to have Schwimmer not playing himself -- when Baldwin first called him "Jared," I thought it was a joke about him not knowing/caring what Schwimmer's actual name was!

P.S. I had actually forgotten there was even a character named "Josh" until he reappeared here. Him and Twofer = screwed lately

(But I should not shift my complaints, because the spotlight-return of Pete was great: "WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THOSE POP TARTS???")

"she was pregnant 20 minutes into our first date!"

show is GOLD. for my money, nothing else on tv right now even approaches it in terms of laugh-out-loud funniness. it seems to be on an upward curve that i keep expecting to plateau but that refuses to.

That party scene. I pissed myself.

Grizz has been getting a lot of action this season.

I too thought it was weird that Schwimmer wasn't Schwimmer on the show; especially as he's like NBC royalty (although not quite as high up as King Seinfeld, I guess maybe they granted the Friends ensemble minor NBC fiefdoms).

Schwimmer, Lesser Duke of Must See TV and Surrounding Territories

haha almost forgot "no this is sunset blush, I wear TIGER ORGASM"

Also this show I think handled the enviro-friendly programming mandate much more deftly than any of the other shows on last night.

I was glad that Schwimmer didn't play asshole Schwimmer, I don't want 30 Rock turning into Extras.

Him and Twofer = screwed lately

i miss twofer!! but he had a GREAT lavender ensemble on at the end of last night.

no more celebrity guests, plz!!!

especially as he is a mensch. fact

"harlem globetrotter...does that name mean ANYTHING to you?"

Holy Shit

Oh man! Wish I was even close to NYC right now.

I hope someone videotapes this for inclusion on the inevitable DVD set.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

at least with the strike we won't have to worry about too many more guest stars once they run out of already-taped episodes.

that would be sweet!

i'm missing tonight to go see michaels ian black & showalter. does nbc include full eps on their site?

yes

are you practicing your Re-Run dance?

jesus this show

This might've been the funniest one yet of the season...BUT NOW ITS THE LAST! waaaah.

(presumably)

TELL HER YOU WANT HER PRIVATES AND YOUR PRIVATES TO DO A HIGH FIVE!

"he's got MAPS all over his walls... MAPS!!"

liz way out of character and not funny

i hope the maple syrup thing was a riff on this:

I dunno, Liz being a most-of-the-time bleeding heart with serious hypocritical issues whenever things get scary is pretty much exactly in character.

xpost

Agreed. Liz's liberal achilles heel is zenophobic paranoia.

z=x

cf. the source awards episode xp

That was a pretty awful episode.

The Source Awards one, I mean. Not seen last night's.

lol they included the syrup smell <3 <3 <3

damn u striking writers

if you suspect something, do everything

"Honey, where's my hunting rifle?"
"Last I saw, the dog had it."

the last 3 episodes have been the best ever now its gonna be over ;_; ;_; ;_;

somewhere there is a thread of us talking abt the syrup smell when it happened

The way the Kenneth's mask's jaw dropped after being hit by Lutz combined with the look on his face when removing the mask nearly made me pass out I was laughing so hard.

"APE ATTACK!!! APE ATTACK!!!"

you know i never make assumptions about race. remember that time i asked that black guy if he saw sideways?

The maple syrup smell thing has happened in NY several times over the last few years and is always a local news/gothamist-worthy topic.

i think you might be underselling it a little cause ITS THE GREATEST LOCAL NEWS STORY EVER

like I said...

Did the UK one get cut again last night? There was a bit in there that made no sense to me!
