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

The thing I saw said Whitney was probably not going to make it to s2, and Up All Night was.

Outsourced lasted a full year? Gods.

I read that Whitney was likely to be renewed. All guessing until next week, I suppose.

the office (which might not even make it to next season though i can't imagine nbc drops that show w/o milking a finale and a return carrell appearance out of it) off

Please do this! The last season was the worst season ever, and the show has devolved into utter meaninglessness. Still halfway entertaining, but really horribly, lazily written.

Smash is really an awful show.

This would be ideal, imo.

Smash IS terrible, but i still feel like it's funny/bad enough that it kind of justifies its existence, if that makes any sense

Up All Night definitely deserves a second season

i'm a broken record on this but Up All Night is a waste of its cast, they need to stop dragging that mediocre shit out and let them go off and do better projects

You're not the only person I know who is vocal about disliking Up All Night, but that show for me is all about specific moments that I wasn't expecting or moments that could be tropes but were pulled off in ways that are fresh.

I have a feeling that it could be one of those shows that finds its feet in the second season and becomes really funny, like Parks and Rec.

The back half of the first season was already much better than the front half.

the 30 Rock season finale airing next week is titled "What Will Happen to the Gang Next Year?" which i can only assume will be an episode-length It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia homage

Up All Night grew on me and now I love it.

something grew on me once. but then they used some liquid nitrogen and it came right off.

Me too! I've never watched SNL so had no prior knowledge of Maya Rudolph, who is great on UAN.

"Silk Undertrunks"

Very disappointed at his performance at staying completely silent during Celebrity Apprentice.

All of the off-brandheelz.com designers are A+++++.

pretty great ep

The names on this show are just remarkable sometimes, isn't Criss' last name something like "Boyfriend"

Jenna's fiancé is Paul Lastname iirc

Wiki'd not to disprove but because curious - "Criss Chros"!

fiance Feyonce

Jenna's fiancé is Paul Lastname iirc

Paul L'Astnamé.

Wait, there's a new episode tonight? Thought last week was the finale!

Stop pointing your ass at my eyeballs.

"Questlove"

"...and now, Brother Jason Segal!"

Patriots After Dark series...

"Have fun always carrying a light sweater."

eh, writing elizabeth banks out of this was pretty weak sauce imo

Kim Jong-Il should become a regular cast member, imo.

<3 Hazel
xps the bit during the credits was a little freaky

hazel has really started to grow on me.

Was there a single episode this season that didn't have at least one "Kenneth Is Immortal" joke? They've never gone so all in with that in the past, have they?

eh, writing elizabeth banks out of this was pretty weak sauce imo

She's doing a lot of movies so she probably isn't available?

i know realistically that was the case, but when they started talking their whole backstory it reminded me how they spent how many seasons developing this arc for it to fizzle out in two episodes? yeah i know, nobody watches 30 rock for the character development

also a similar thing happened to her character on Scrubs, which was almost as ridiculous

yeah but that was way more poorly conceived

does S&P just still not let people get abortions on prime-time comedies?

No, but it's okay to let audiences know you can get a woman pregnant by premature ejaculating on her.

EBanks is not a huge start or anything but she's been averaging 4-5 movies a year since way before she did anything on 30 Rock, wasn't it always clear that her role on the show was going to be limited and sporadic with an end date? i mean who gives a fuck about plausibility on 30 Rock, the fact that they had her kidnapped by a foreign dictator to keep her out of most of the past season was better than any 'real' plotline could have been.
