It only just occurred to me that NBC's entire Thursday lineup was nominated.

Buck Henry is a writer on 30 Rock?

hah! I was like "buck henry?!?!". Makes such good sense.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 05:27 (nineteen years ago)

yeah!

He's not credited as a writer anywhere that I can find, but it would be unsurprising if he acted as a consultant, editor, polisher, etc, and threw in a joke now and again. He's a comedy writing God, and still pretty close to SNL, I imagine.

I just learned from IMDB that he co-directed Heaven Can Wait. I did not know that.

And of course there's The Graduate.

"Ben, this all sounds a little half-baked."
"No, it's completely baked."

I think he later claimed that Beatty brought him because he knew Julie Christie would be mad at him before the shooting was over, so he would need Buck to give her direction.

"I want you to ride me as hard as you can." = Tobias Funke moment.

aw balls, I forgot this show was on

LMFAO at the "Goldcase" coda. Tears.

and Kenneth remains unfazed

lol at Brian Williams' dressing room

The egg in the underwear + the look on Baldwins face

also, cleaning "Katie Couric Sucks" off the wall

― Charlie Brown (kenan), Friday, 19 January 2007 03:22 (nineteen years ago)

Whoever said this show can't be cancelled because it's too soaked in NBC corporate culture was OTM.

― Charlie Brown (kenan), Friday, 19 January 2007 03:27 (nineteen years ago)

I laughed until I cried when Tracey went nuts and used his shoe as a telephone. "Yes, I am having problems with my cable television. Yes, I will hold." It was all in the enunciation.

Anyone seen a torrent of episode 11 yet?

― caek (caek), Friday, 19 January 2007 03:30 (nineteen years ago)

We just watched episode 11. Give it 4 hours.

― Charlie Brown (kenan), Friday, 19 January 2007 03:31 (nineteen years ago)

Ah, right. I thought it was yesterday. Thanks.

― caek (caek), Friday, 19 January 2007 03:33 (nineteen years ago)

I am pretty well convinced after tonight that this is the best show on tv

Moonvest

― Bryan (Bryan), Friday, 19 January 2007 04:09 (nineteen years ago)

Like the moon landing or the golden girls finale

― acid waffle house (dubplatestyle), Friday, 19 January 2007 04:16 (nineteen years ago)

oooh i need to catch up on the past few weeks!

Tracy's song about Christmas wishes shooting out of your eyes is quite possibly the most absurdly hilarious thing I've ever heard in my life.

― Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Friday, 19 January 2007 04:49 (nineteen years ago)

shooting LOVE

― Charlie Brown (kenan), Friday, 19 January 2007 05:21 (nineteen years ago)

very very funny episode.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Friday, 19 January 2007 05:24 (nineteen years ago)

Christmas love? Whatever, it's still funny.

― Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Friday, 19 January 2007 05:24 (nineteen years ago)

you've never heard his songs as woodrow the homeless guy then

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 19 January 2007 05:46 (nineteen years ago)

take a doodoo pie

― A B C (sparklecock), Friday, 19 January 2007 05:48 (nineteen years ago)

C or D?: Tracy Morgan's "Woodrow" character..

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 19 January 2007 05:48 (nineteen years ago)

Johnny Mac???

― hearditonthexico (rogermexico), Friday, 19 January 2007 06:01 (nineteen years ago)

Brian Fellow - not a troll

― chaki (chaki), Friday, 19 January 2007 06:06 (nineteen years ago)

LMFAO at the "Goldcase" coda. Tears.

Seriously, no even one thought to fill the other cases with something heavy?

"If you're a gay guy looking for a beard, I don't do that anymore."

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Friday, 19 January 2007 06:11 (nineteen years ago)

what coda? fucking DVR cut it off before the end

― kyle (akmonday), Friday, 19 January 2007 06:31 (nineteen years ago)

Stern logic does not create comedy. Never has, never will.

― Charlie Brown (kenan), Friday, 19 January 2007 06:37 (nineteen years ago)

Kyle, it'll be up on the NBC site tomorrow.

― Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Friday, 19 January 2007 06:39 (nineteen years ago)

Haha, I know kenan, I think that there was a simple solution made it even funnier.

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Friday, 19 January 2007 06:42 (nineteen years ago)

"Teenmoviescene.com gave it 5 out of 5 iPods!"

― musically (musically), Friday, 19 January 2007 07:48 (nineteen years ago)

I just went back on the NBC site and watched some of the episodes again. Perhaps the funniest bit was when Jack was trying to tell a joke about Jack Welch, ending with the phrase "mind grapes" which he and Liz agreed made no sense.

Cut to Tracy talking about his mind grapes.

― Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Friday, 19 January 2007 08:39 (nineteen years ago)

Marmot and Cutty, I wondered in the old thread at just how Tina Fey was getting away with all the jokes about how shitty all the sketches were, or whether exec producer Lorne Michaels simply doesn't give a damn anymore. It's been going on since the first episode, with Krakowski as "the overly confident obese woman" or whatever.

― A Radio Picture (Rrrickey), Friday, 19 January 2007 11:17 (nineteen years ago)

Great joke from a few weeks ago when the cast was collapsing due to facial tattoos, bad skin treatments, etc.:

"Maybe we can get the musical guest to do a few extra songs. Who is it?"
"James Blunt."

― A Radio Picture (Rrrickey), Friday, 19 January 2007 11:19 (nineteen years ago)

If all I had to my name were a bottle of water, a baguette, and a loop of Alec Baldwin perfectly enuncuiating "asspain" playing in the background, I would need nothing more.

― David R. (popshots75`), Friday, 19 January 2007 14:51 (nineteen years ago)

Tina Fey was getting away with all the jokes about how shitty all the sketches were

"Tracy to the stage for 'Pull Your Own Wisdom Teeth'"

I LOVE that. Not only does it sound like a bad sketch, it sounds like the kind of classic SNL that they keep trying to recycle.

― Charlie Brown (kenan), Friday, 19 January 2007 17:06 (nineteen years ago)

the christmas song omg - "imagine christmas wishes... shooting out of your eyes"
first time in a very long time i've laughed to the point of tears at a tv show

― rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Friday, 19 January 2007 22:29 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, Kenan. It was WISHES!

I'm with you... I was laughing for five minutes sometime after midnight last night just because I thought of it again.

― Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Friday, 19 January 2007 22:53 (nineteen years ago)

This show just keeps topping itself.

― Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Friday, 2 February 2007 02:52 (nineteen years ago)

so funny

i love this show

― and what (ooo), Friday, 2 February 2007 03:12 (nineteen years ago)

he can have his rockettes, his shakiras...

"I had 'lunch' with Martha Stewart, and 'dinner' with her daughter Alexis."

I like how Tina and Alec just broke into German all the sudden.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Friday, 2 February 2007 05:19 (nineteen years ago)

THAT WAS AWESOME

― The Android Cat (Dan Perry), Friday, 2 February 2007 14:34 (nineteen years ago)

Things you never think you'll see on TV: Isabella Rossellini stripping Tina Fey to the waist.
