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

cat sound...

Oh, I lied. I've seen your show... >:\

A blaffair to Rememblack

both our biological clocks are ticking - your baby crazy and i'm getting turned on by car crashes

you're

Can you transfer me to the italian ambassador? Coz I lik-a to make-a tha prank calls

i think i laughed more at a a blaffair to rememblack than at anything i've ever seen on tv

Senor Macho Solo lol

yeah, "a blaffair to rememblack" was pretty amazing

I pretty much got the joke when whats-his-midget said 'i have seen your show' but the look he gave afterward triggered such a violent expulsion of laughter on my part I apologized to my girlfriend and almost every inanimate object in the room for such rude behavior.

(also I am very much aware whats-his-midget is Mr. Peter Dinklage and he was very good in 30 Rock tonight as he was in Find Me Guilty ^_^ )

good episode. when Salma showed up in that orange dress my wife went "woah" and I responded in total bro mode "I KNOW" and she laughed for like 3 straight minutes after that.

there were a bunch of other lines that I lost it over but I kind of forgot them all after the blaffair to rememblack

I liked that episode quite a bit.

Macarena; baby + taco = you're welcome at a puerto rican quinceanera (I didn't think puerto ricans did those but I accept that 30 Rock writers are just messing with me/people from latin america), the whole exchange where tracy tells jack his test is postitive -- that is to say that the results are positive in that they are negative and he can see where there could be some confusion...

I could swear I have seen this bit on some other show or movie, but I don't remember where.

well, it was kind of a parody of a bit that's been done a bunch of times, that was the point. you're probably thinking of Seinfeld, though.

yah lol tracy walking off JOKES COMEDY AHAHAHAH

I wish there was more scenes done in crazy armour or whatever costumes. It just adds so much more.

weak episode. i was high and yet only chuckled a couple times. selma is not a good comedic actor.

As I was going to sleep last night I remembered CAT SOUND.

maybe it was a weak episode "plot-wise" or whatever but i had more actual lols last night than at any other ep this season ("you can move or you can watch, but this is happening!"

"The Office" went there with Kevin's cancer prognosis.

Was that the subjunctive?

seinfeld did it with george, when they're making the nbc pilot.

xp

"a blaffair to rememblack" XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD

blaffair to rememblack was just biting this old simpsons joke

Announcer: Next, on Exploitation Theatre... Blackula, followed by
Blackenstein, and the Blunchblack of Blotre Blame!
Homer: [watching] Oooh, funky!

Be that as it may, "A Blaffair to Rememblack" is far superior. It was worth the wait in years for the perfection of that joke.

"you can move or you can watch, but this is happening!"

This was amazing. But the prank call line had us lolling well into the next scene.

Also: NIGHT CHICKS

I've been disappointed with this season so far, but this episode was great.

this one and the anniston one (imo)* and the school reunion were a++.

*mainly for the night court stuff though. i dunno why, i've never even heard of night court, but then neither had tracy jordan (a court? at night? i'm already laughing!).

I want a dollar top hat.

"Wooooooooooah, what's that iron bird?"
"They had planes in the sixties, Jenna."

+ Kenneth asking Lemon's date what its like living under the bridge.

"Thank you, and that's the rap song from the movie Teen Witch. Once again I apologise that our regular warm up OD'd at a gay mans apartment this morning."

OH MY GOD A BLAFFAIR TO REMEMBLACK

haha that's^ rightfully going to enter the comedy one-liner canon

ive been saying that to everyone i encounter

its really fun to say

As a child, Tracy was a castmember on the Nickelodeon show Ray Ray's Mystery Garage. He lived with his single mother in 1979 and was discovered after doing stand-up comedy at the Apollo Theater in 1984. Tracy claims to have no memory of this, but it was allegedly listed on Wikipedia. (This fact was made self-referentially in the episode "The Head and The Hair.") Tracy Jordan believes he is a descendant of Thomas Jefferson and slave Sally Hemings. However, this is based on information given to him by Dr. Spaceman. Tracy has starred in 15 movies including:

* Who Dat Ninja?, where he plays an African-American ninja. (Portrayal of a non-Asian ninja might be a reference to Beverly Hills Ninja.]) Early episodes show the spelling in the poster found in Tracy's dressing room as being 'Who Dat Ninga.'
* Black Cop/White Cop ("One does the duty; the other gets the booty!"), in which he plays a Black cop who disguises himself as a White cop. (Reference to White Chicks)
* Black Cavemen ("So simple, a Black Caveman can do it!"), in which he plays a Black Caveman who, along with his friends, tries to fit into a society which is slow to accept them. (Reference to Geico Cavemen)
* Honky Grandma be Trippin', in which he portrays a Black man who disguises himself as an overweight elderly White woman. (Reference to Big Momma's House)
* President Homeboy, in which he plays a Black president. (a reference to Head of State)
* Fat Bitch ("She's off the leash!"), in which he turns into a dog. Don Geiss wanted a sequel made, despite the fact that Coco (Fat Bitch) died at the end. (Reference to The Shaggy Dog)
* Samurai I Am Awry, spent nine months in Japan filming this movie.
* Death Bank, film with the tagline "Money is the Root of All Evil."
* A Blaffair to Rememblack, a remake of An Affair to Remember.

He was also in a Western in which his entire role was done without leaving his car. His current project in development is called Jefferson, where he plays Thomas Jefferson, Sally Hemings and King George III. Tracy put together a truly abysmal short trailer for his prospective film that Don Geiss watched and said was horrifyingly bad.

He also tends to play multiple roles in his films, much like actors Martin Lawrence and Eddie Murphy. According to Jack Donaghy, Tracy's movie career has taken a downturn because of enemies he has made in the industry.

Tracy did a Christmas album in 1998 and is a big fan of Pat Benatar. In addition to his acting career, he writes a column in Ebony Magazine called "Musings". He owns several houses and later got into debt because he didn't make the payments on them. At one point, Tracy owes Quincy Jones $75,000.

Samurai I Am Awry

earnest claps btw^^^

yah totally thats basically why i posted the list

'I have a column in Ebony called "Musings"' is pretty much by favourite sentence of all time.

And the way he says "Musings"!

I sort of want to make an audio compilation of all of his funny pronunciations...would have to include, from earlier in that same episode: "Can I read?"

BANTER!

the teen witch thing killed me. what's the demographic for that joke?

haha yeah that teen witch thing was the best joke on the show.

honestly, i'm a little disappointed in this season.

Best joke for me was Jenna holding up the the Joplin biography and saying "Take a lesson from Janis and show some self control."

Also, "Cat sound!"

if you were born between 1975-1980, and had HBO, the teen witch joke probably hit home

for the uninitiated:

did not hav hbo know not abt teen witch ;_;

what a sad childhood you must have had
