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

"menendi"

i lol'ed a few times for sure, like at tracy's delivery to liz re: sex doll, "you want one, i can get you one if you want." it almost sounded unscripted.

one of the funniest bits last night was when they acknowledged that with a quick throwaway gag (Tracy saying something to Liz about "so you don't know anything about Jenna's problem with her father?" like there was a whole subplot about her we just never saw).

yes yes yes. loved this part for that exact reason. also "stop patriciding" was great. i'm sure you've all seen tracy morgan irl give interviews and such...i'm convinced he doesn't really have any lines on this show and also that he may not even know it's supposed to be a scripted comedy show - he just says what he would normally say in the situation.

i hate it when people say this. but i do think the writers do a good job of writing for him based on his humor and things that he probably has said/would say.

I'm convinced you don't realize how much he is performing in interviews.

CRAZY RAPPERS

i love how the quick stuff is just so quick and smart. like: "go in there like a chinese gymnast. wear something tight, fake a smile, and lie about your age." (paraphrasing maybe...)

that's just so economical and perfect.

I lost my shit at that bit.

I SERIOUSLY HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL NOVEMBER 4 FOR A NEW FUCKING EPISODE?

DECEMBER EVEN WORSE

Is this potpourri or chips? Coz Im gonna try and eat it.

These are not chips.

After which she continues to eat them!

Good job, sex doll.

McEnroe's cameo was perfection.

i'm aware that he gives interviews in character. for me, it's just super endearing that the guy seems to act one way all the time and it works ALL THE TIME

i would feel safer with some saltines.

tracy has definitely gotten fatter and worse at acting over the break

yeah I noticed that he gained some weight too.

Wait, what, she has a scar? I guess that's a HD-bonus we web-viewers miss out on.

Point-missing squib in this week's New Yorker:

"Tracy Morgan’s Tracy Jordan is a movie star, well known for being unstable, who was foisted on Liz by Donaghy in the show’s first episode; I find him irritating and hard to watch, and I guess I’m meant to, in order to know what it would feel like to have my show, my baby, messed with by the corporate types."

you never noticed? here's a freezeframe from the opening credits
