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

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.

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.

ha that whole string of questions and answers between the writers and Matt Damon before Lutz's "Are you on Facebook?" and everyone looks disgusted

"Dnnid I Dnnoo Thannt?"

Sadness Scavenger List

Came here to post just that gukbe

not jim - not jimmy - jamesssssth.

Jack's "flirting" with the interior designer was gayriffic

I'm a daddy bear

don't be cry!

how did kenneth get fired again?

He got promoted which meant he'd have to move to LA, and he didn't want to move to LA, so he deliberately did a bad job on a studio tour with the Kabletown execs.

oh yeah, forgot about that. cheers!

good first episode! hopefully i'll be able to watch next week's live

is Outsourced a remake of Mumbai Calling? just guessing from the title

Self referential season five intro joke not as good as the self referential season four intro joke.

^^^agreed and it led onto one of my favourite bits, Tracy doing stand-up about eating lobster and asking "Have I lost touch with my roots? I better talk to Rabbi Schmuley about this..."
