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

oh god that handgun gag! I laughed more than I've laughed in months!
and the bit about matt damon going to the Whitehouse and watching the Obamas sleep.
Michael Sheen is probably the best guest they've had on. Maybe.

'oooh bother, treble bother.'

kenneth's line about seeing people throw away food that was nicer than his family had for xmas dinner (and tracy agreeing)

^ sudeikis did that joke on snl right after the incident.

the whole "birth control pill that gives you one period a year" gag (Dodecanol?) is from the "Annuale" fake ad on SNL when Tina Fey was on

And when you get that one period - hang on to your fucking hat

last week's was funnier but it was an ok finale I thought

i thought this was a pretty weak episode esp by tina fey's standards -- altho it did remind me that Feyonce is my favorite joke ever

e-banks so great

Poor Dennis:

. "For the ['30 Rock'] season finale, I had casts on both arms, and another on my foot, which was kept off-camera. And she literally had me propped up on a stool."

holy shit

WOW! Totally understandable now why his part in the finale was so small.

that's an incredible story (and why the hell did he give the NY Post the exclusive?)

I just went back and watched the scene and could totally spot the leg cast.

wow! and scary...
i talked to him once (v briefly) while on a Manhattan art crawl evening a couple years ago - he was v nice and even pleasantly surprised that we recognized him :)

that's an incredible story (and why the hell did he give the NY Post the exclusive?)

its one of the biggest 10 papers in the US by circulation and page six is one of the top entertainment columns in the country?

and he lives in nyc, and it happened in nyc

it's what dennis duffy would do

holy shit.

my gf was watching an old sex & the city ep that dean winters guested on, so great to see him doing proto-dennis duffy.

"It's gonna take more than a finger and a couple of toes to keep me down."

damn

I just saw the first Mr. Mayhem commercial. Weird that it was just pretty much a teaser for commercials to come, but the more Dennis Duffy on television the better.

dennis got an all state ad campaign

yeah

you can see he's missing the tips of his last two fingers on his right hand in it, it's kind of a gruesome reminder of what happened to him

zomg live episode coming this October http://popwatch.ew.com/2010/07/30/30-rock-live-episode/

Holy crap, how is Julianne Moore 50?!?!?!

she was born in 1960

ha, ha, ha.

http://www.mywickedspace.com/graphics/glitter/Animals/i100960163_78776.gif

She's obviously a v attractive woman and all but she looks 50 imo.

pretty amazing after seeing kids are all right tp find out that she is only 2 years younger than annette benning. most people guess 10-15.

It's not so much that I thought she was like 40 so much as a sort of fine-vintage-wine in terms of WSability and age. In my opinion she looked better in 30 rock than in say, Shortcuts. But that's just me.

So the DVD set for season 4 is out now. One of the commentaries is just Jack McBrayer and Jon Hamm, here is an alleged excerpt:

Jon Hamm: That was a very veiled Mad Men reference. I don’t know if you knew that.
Jack McBrayer: Wait, what did he say?
Jon Hamm: Looking out the window, holding a glass of scotch.
Jack McBrayer: It is??
Jon Hamm: To me it is.
Jack McBrayer: Ugh. This is going to be the longest 22 minutes of my life.

still wondering why Donald Glover and Gillian Jacobs did a commentary.

donald glover was a writer before he started community

idk about gillian jacobs tho

i guess cuz they're both funny and are on a show that lots of 30 rock viewers like?

the clip in the commercial is hilarious

liz: i'm gonna be on tv tonight
dr. spacemen: really? are you sure you don't mean radio?

That's from an episode last season.

OH

I want to start a thread about Outsourced with people betting on how many weeks it will last before it gets canceled, but what's the point? It won't be long.

we can use that us comedy tv thread or w/e

there should almost be a rolling nbc thursdays thread or something

there should be a rolling 'new shows 2010-2011 season' thread, and the ones that make the cut/garner interest can get their own threads down the line.

So far, the only "new" new show I've seen is The Event, and it was alright. Same people who made 24 are making it, though, and you can definitely tell by all the hammy dialogue. As for the larger mystery, I'll ride that ride until I have to get off.

get this: my gynecologist committed suicide

really good episode imo

If this is Season 5 of TGS (wink, wink), it doesn't make sense. Wasn't TGS already an established thing that they crammed Tracy Jordan into at the beginning of 30 Rock?

Maybe it's the fifth season of "TGS" since before it was "The Girly Show"

Just an OK first ep, but Jack's "flirting" with the interior designer was gayriffic.

yuh tgs w/ tracy jordan != the girly show i guess

"Was it anything like Top Gun?"

"Yes, but with way more volleyball."

Pete having sex with his wife was disturbing/hilarious.
