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

omg, pens!!!

people who didn't like this episode, i seriously don't understand what they want from this show

It's not like I didn't think it was funny, but there was something slapdash about it, kinda disjointed in a way. Maybe too much going on so it was cut really tight or weird or something. Don't act like I'm a lesser human, jeez.

i see myself... in you

You know what I love? The Dennis Duffy Theme Music. It's so Springsteen-y!

lmfao at this episode

i was totally rofling during jenna's video essay

also for some reason when liz stopped the voicemail message to say that kenneth had done a flip into the elevator

also "thank you cerie, i've been sexually active since i was TWENTY FIVE"

It was a pretty disjointed show, but it was jam packed with funny.

They should do a Jack-in-Washington spinoff. It looked like they were using the West Wing set and lighting anyway. "'Cooter' because I look like a turtle and 'Burger' because he saw me eating a hamburger. One time!"

"Dude, I played this thing for a couple hours. It's okay I guess."
"Frank, you've been in your office for 3 MONTHS!"

this whole exchange btwn jack & cooter:
c:"... a non-leathal chemical weapon that would reduce enemy soldiers combat posture by making them totally gay bones for each other"
j:"how gay?"
c:"it doesn't say, it was abandoned before the planning stages"
J:"of course it was - it would have been expensive, impractical and offensive to the red states and the gayer blue states"
c:"this is exactly what we're looking for"
j:"a guaranteed disaster, like eating a burrito before sex"

such a frank drebin line

i watched an old episode of this last night:

"this is going to be one serious negosh"

i love that guy

We all know that Rome wasn't built in a day-

Well, that's one theory...

"PEN CLOSET"

"Look at these resignation letters... They're written in ketchup, dirty rock, leak water..."

"I know what prenatal means... 'pre-' before, '-natal' ruined."

you're gonna have the baby in the same hospital in coney island that i was born in

Has anyone here seen the unaired pilot with Rachel Dratch as Jenna?

And some other girl as Cerie.

Casting changes were all spot on and the jokes they cut/replaced were weak, but it's an interesting curio.

whoa weird. is that online or something?

I got it from piratebay

also, as well as being a curio rewatching early stuff puts to rest the idea that season 2 is as good as season 1

im sayin

This bullshit is so bullshit I NEVER wanna hear this bullshit on the radio
Or in my children's ears cause it's bullshit

imho

Yeah keep that venom away from 30 Rock... go fix CSNCIJAG&Bones:SVU.

dudes second half of season 1 was pretty weak in comparison

^Yes

liz's "i want it in writing that jenna's job is safe" line in pilot kinda weirdly prescient.

maybe this is copping out but i'd rate it, second half of 2>first half of 1>second half of 1> first half of 2

the last 4 eps of this season could all be my favorite ever-- one where don geiss dies that has A++++++ spaceman joeks is my favorite of all time i think

Have they wrapped up for the summer?

Yep.

don geiss dies?

Don Geiss doesn't die!!

basically dies is what i meant

i like don geiss, he takes his grandchildren snorkelling. However he did not fund 'Jefferson' and this tempers my enthusiasm.

for those of you who think they wrote baldwin out of the show, in people's most beautiful people issue, he writes about tina fey and refers to the show as "us in the long run", so thats something to think about

a tantalizing glimpse into a hypothetical future now out of our grasp ;_;

tofer eating out in front of the sushi place next door on friday

twofer
toofer
?

30 rock actors ive sighted since the show began: baldwin, toofer

J0rdan got me watching this. Just caught the first four eps of S2 on Hulu, omfg this show. And people say S1 is funnier?

In the queue.

HOOS' queues

think S1 is funnier? in the queue with you.

the post-strike run of s02 as good as peak s01. wvs it's all awes. jenna maybe has best lines/lols ratio in this.

AVC: You're scheduled to play a major role in Nailed, David O. Russell's next film. What's your character like?

Tracey Morgan: Well, I play a guy that has an anal prolapse. And we're like a political version of The Wizard Of Oz. And I'm like the lion, and Jessica Biel is Dorothy, and Kurt Fuller is the Tin Man. And we just head off to the government to get health care for everybody. [Laughs.] All three of us have health problems, health issues, and we couldn't get health care. So we travel to the government to get health care. And things happen along the way.

AVC: What is an anal prolapse?

TH: It's where your asshole falls out. When you push too hard, it prolapses, it falls out. I'm lifting weights and I happen to catch a prolapse. Yeah. If you go online, you can see it. It's really crazy.

AVC: So are you trying to get a new asshole? Is that what your character is seeking?

TM: Yeah, I want 'em to fix it.

AVC: Did you do a lot of research into anal prolapses for the role?

TM: No, dude! No, my asshole's never really popped out. [Laughs.] It's a character, dude.

AVC: There's a great 30 Rock scene where Alec Baldwin is acting out all the different roles in your life: He's your mother, he's your father, he's all these different things. You're playing the straight man and he's doing crazy voices. Can you talk a little bit about what it was like filming that particular scene?

TM: Just me and Alec having fun. You know, I love Alec. Alec loves me. That's my boy, and we were just sitting down having fun with it, you know? We just relaxed. I love working with Alec Baldwin. He's one of the five greatest actors ever to live.

please name the other four, tracy!

We're midway thru 2nd season in Aus- it's upsetting to see Tracy so skinny!
