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

^^ super-lol

also kenneth's "WHAT? WHY NOW?" when jack tells him to order showtime

ha yeah kenneth was fuckin weird this episode, in a good way mostly

I want "The Bear & Robot Talk Show" right now.

Liz's Steve Jobs impersonation totally spot-on

I just wanna let you know, if we find any human remains, I'm throwing up ALL OVER YOUR FACE

Loved Liz's presentation a lot.

okay, it's killing me, who played the consultant and where have i seen him before??

..I could tell you that we're in final negotiations to produce exclusive content for America's jails.

"I want to keep making prank phone calls to people like Seattle's Richard Sackmuncher."

The "preempted by wrestling" line was hilarious. Anyone else remember when SNL was preempted by this?

Oooohh that guy was from Harold and Kumar 2.

finally got to see the suri cruise rap mentioned back in season 1. also, the pelican brief.

"you have to admit your boombox division is a little behind the times"
"we're not behind the times, we're groovy"

thanks...I had seen him before on Desperate Housewives as the creepy pharmacist.

^^that's where i knew him from too!! i couldnt for the life of me put it together.

you watch desperate housewives wtf

long story

mmhmm

i love kenneth as much as the next person, but there's been a whole lot of him lately. they're not going to Urkel-ize him are they?

A little too late for that, isn't it? I still enjoy him but yeah they need to give the other actors some face time, too.

imagine me wearing a trucker hat that says "MORE FRANK" and nodding.

no, the cereal

now i could stand here brad and bore you with numbers. i could tell you we're the #1 rated show among men 9-13, AND the morbidly obese

i had kind of a nabisco/jaymc ocd tv show continuity moment when they kept referring to TGS being on its 50th episode when 30R is past that number already and TGS is supposed to have already been on the air for a while before where the show's storyline picks up.

but a week for us is usually only a few days for them, so you can sort of see how it could happen

haha i didnt catch that...it could just be a joke wrt the TGS's general retardedness. like it's a weekly sketch comedy show that's been around for over three years and is just hitting 50 eps

xpost i thought of that too, but 30 rock-time seems to vary between eps

also it's not real

well yeah, both of these things. I don't follow timelines closely on this show - I'm too exhausted from Lost :)

maybe we could team up. go in there together, lez out, give him a show...

that's your worst quadrant!

it is bad enough that you killed the bird i have had for over 60 years, but the fact that you didnt trust me is unforgivable

xp yesss

ruined it with your talking, didnt you!?

not to name names, but it's so sad that a certain black individual tricked someone so pretty into thinking you were a serial killer

also guys liz's "cereal" thing in the beginning and the whole "ken is a serial killer" thing is A+ imo

"i need a makeup artist! NO...the sluttier one"

oooo I forgot about slutty Liz. <3<3<3

it was the return of 1-900-OKFACE Liz

feel like they need some new jokes, they're really hammering the same character jokes over and over and over

symptom of this <- repeating the exact same joke of jonathan singing his goodbye to donaghey

and yeah i understand what call-backs are but you need jokes other than call-backs too

the whole overly smithers-y jonathan thing is kinda weak in general but u mad

jonathan was a pretty one note character--sort of a real life version of Disco Stu

they could have jonathan sing in every episode and it would be okay with me.

yeah he's OBVIOUSLY more like disco stu than smithers, what was i thinking!?

smithers has at least three notes

is he really cut from the show? surely he'll be hired back next ep

i guess some of the characters are getting into caricature territory, but the jokes are good so who cares

i still lol, i just want them to step their game up

Ha -- I was weirded out by the 50-episodes thing too, not in relation to the length of 30 Rock, but just because I'd always gotten the impression it was like a long-running weekly dud of a show. (I mean, the implication at the beginning was that they had a long-running thing going that Jack/Tracy were shaking up, right?) But maybe "TGS with Tracy Jordan" shows count differently from "The Girlie Show."

I feel obligated to quote something: "I was just admonishing him for that earlier!"

What can I do? I’m on my grind. My kids are going to have so much money, my grandkids are going to play Lacrosse. Lacrosse, Liz Lemon.
