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

lol dot com is 18

All of the age stuff had me rolling.

yes mee too

alan alda was great

Donald was so creepy and scuzzy. I hope he becomes a reoccurring character. Good for lolz. Anyone know who that guy is and what else he's been in?

I find AA grating. I can't get over his ALANALDAness. I'm always thinking, "that's alan alda, that's alan alda" and can't just watch.

uh i watched both on hulu today

yeah he will always be capt benjamin franklin pierce to me.

i have noticed that the pre-credit portion of 30 rock is a terrific barometer of how funny the rest of the episode will be. lots of lols = great ep. some lols = good ep. no lols = bad ep.

Mary, Elvis, Clay.

Man, the amount of guest stars they've got in this episode. Kudos to them.

nice little beastie boys cameo outta nowhere

Awful hot, right?

lol @ the Breyers commercial

s to the d shut it down!

A++ episode.

Norah Jones looks so hot with shorter hair! *swoon*

who was the guy with the long beard next to mcdonald?

x-post - Oh shit that's who that was? It did look really good!

yeah i saw her on some late night show the other night and be like daaaaaaaaamn

I liked the alda line about crying over a chicken/I thought this was a comedy

lolz @ "rainstorm katrina"

Beardy was Steve Earle. Who was the other guy in that group? And who were the people next to Moby? And the girl next to Norah Jones? And the black guy next to Cyndi? So many not-famous-enough musicians.

on the nbc site there's a special site for the benefit and it lists all the musicians, but strangely not Earle.

Wait, Rachael Yamagata was in there too? Was she next to Sara Bareilles or was that Norah Jones?

"i haven't seen that many riled-up dirtbags since cvs put the cold medicine behind the counter"

Yamagata was at the back next to Moby, I'm guessing; Jones was next to Bareilles.

Also - "My favourite part of science was the Old Testament!"

Yeah you pronounce my name Kwe-li/Help me get this fool a kid-ney

Norah Jones looks so hot with shorter hair! *swoon*

sexually-transmitted crazy mouth

no that's okay, i'll just remember that it's the ~opposite~ of what this says

opposite. opposite. OPPOSITE

that's not what these forms say...

sir, have you ever kissed another gentleman?
uh, one time in college. and a lot since then

lolll jack and milton playing catch

the best part is "don't ruin it milton" aka dont ruin the joke <33

you just ruined the joke

Dr. Spaceman gold as usual. "Now a kidney transplant is no laughing matter ... so I should apologize for the last few minutes"

"I think its the hard K sound that's doing it... KKKidney."

these are my european friends

moby ina bad brains t

what do you think this is, wings?

I think this was the best episode of the season and one of the best ever. It was nice to see 30 Rock being kind of weird again.

This episode didn't really do it for me, so I'm surprised that so many seemed to like it so much. Maybe I'll rewatch.

was it weird? i thought it was one of their most conventional, but i liked it.

love tracy's timing when kenneth is confronting about high school, basically stepping on k's lines ("you had to dissect a f-" "what frog?")

In the last episode of MASH (most-watched TV episode ever!) Alda's
character is sent to a psychiatrist after a breakdown. He tells the
doctor that he had been on a bus with other people from the army, and
they had stopped to pick up some Koreans. They found out there were
enemies in the area, so the bus pulled off the road and Alda told
everyone to be quiet so the enemy wouldn't hear them. One of the
Korean women had a chicken that wouldn't stop making noise, so Alda
yelled at her, "Shut up that damn chicken!" So the woman killed the
chicken. The doctor can't understand why this was so traumatic to
Alda, but then finally Alda admits it wasn't really a chicken -- it
was a baby. The baby wouldn't stop crying and Alda told the mother to
keep it quiet. Rather than risk having the enemy hear them and kill
them all, the mother smothered her own baby.

Hence, "What's with all the crying about babies and chickens?"!!

woah i forgot about that

wow

Beardy was Steve Earle. Who was the other guy in that group? And who were the people next to Moby? And the girl next to Norah Jones? And the black guy next to Cyndi? So many not-famous-enough musicians.

I think Michael McDonald was next to Beardy. The dude in back by Moby was the singer from the Old 97's.

I think there are two active Wire threads today, which is funny given a total of three Wire actors guest-starring between this and The Office (Ryan, Elba, Earle)

"and so began the craziest summer of my life" joke destroyed meeeee
