cementing the plans to shelve Studio 60 as well as 30 Rock

This scared the shit out of me for a second.

We all knew it would have to take a hiatus at some point, so they could finish out the season during April/May Sweeps. I personally would rather they air 30-40+ episodes of this per "season" of tv though.

I hope that the Andy Richter show does well enough to replace Scrubs but suspect it will not do well enough to replace anything

I really liked Andy's FOX show and it's Parker Louis Can't Lose-esque sound effects.

that is complete bush league, this show owns.

take it easy kids, they likely didn't order a season of episodes from an unproven quantity, and have to push the remaining back to sweeps.

rest assured, it will be back in the lineup next year, they're not going to destroy their longstanding relationship with Lorne Michaels just like that, and this show is critically lauded and will probably get an emmy or two. studio 60 however is being put out to pasture in as humane a way possible (read: appease Sorkin).

Yeah I was thinking an added bonus to the Baldwin Golden Globe was that it pretty much assures a season 2 (of course Arrested Development won like FIVE Emmys).

blotter Budweiser Hackeysadk (nickalicious), Monday, 5 February 2007 22:39 (seventeen years ago) link

And they had 3 seasons!

David R. (popshots75`), Monday, 5 February 2007 23:06 (seventeen years ago) link

I hope this all means that we'll get a pretty good run of new episodes before and after the hiatus. which means a pretty good run of new episodes for the next four weeks.

GOD I LOVE THIS SHOW

Will Forte is occasionally very very funny. Please see all the Tim Calhoun skits on SNL.

Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 05:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Will Forte is really funny, in my opinion as an American! Nobody gets to show their full lol potential on SNL as I thought this very show demonstrated

A B C (sparklecock), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 05:21 (seventeen years ago) link

I like when Will Forte sings. It's always over the top and wonderful.

I miss Will Forte as Bush

AND AS ZELL MILLER

Edward III (edward iii), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 13:56 (seventeen years ago) link

Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 17:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Will Forte's finest moment was as the voice of Abe Lincoln on Clone High.

Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 18:11 (seventeen years ago) link

That was him? Respect.

Yeah, but they don't let him do Bush anymore.

i loved that skit

the kwisatz bacharach (sanskrit), Friday, 9 February 2007 03:06 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah, apparently there have been some more recent ones that I missed.

Tonight's 30 rock was completely hilarious. The show's getting better and better.

Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Friday, 9 February 2007 04:03 (seventeen years ago) link

I just realised why I love Tina Fey, and it is from a few episodes ago.

"I never wear flip-flops, because that's gross."

Yeah, that's my perfect woman.

awesome episode. every time there is a snl guest star i want them to permanently escape to the safe house of 30 rock

I love how Rachel Dratch gets reappropriated (almost) every single episode. The Ukrainian hooker might've been the best so far.

I wish Dr. Spaceman would drop in again.

I hate trucker hat Best Week Ever/Dave Matthews Band Video guy, so it was nice that they at least had a character criticize him last night. but can they please just get rid of him?

Even the dumbest shit (Kenneth showing off the underwear, "Happy Valentimes!", Tracy calling Liz Lemon from the hotel) works so well.

I hope Liz Lemon & Planet of the Apes Lawyer get together & make happy nerd babies.

David R. (popshots75`), Friday, 9 February 2007 18:42 (seventeen years ago) link

Do you really want that, though? Fumbling, single Liz is better than any fumbling, dating Liz I could imagine.

Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Friday, 9 February 2007 18:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Fumbling, dating Liz w/ the Beeper King was GOLD, Johnny!

David R. (popshots75`), Friday, 9 February 2007 18:51 (seventeen years ago) link

She is allowed to date, but only dumbasses like Dennis.

i'm telling you the throw away lines are the best thing about this show.
