30 Rock

[Drunky McBetidont]

i hardly cracked a smile during the office tonight but 30 rock had me :lol:
the pig bit my nut sack off. which i wore on my belt, to feed squirrels

[TheMojoPin]

Good times, but too much Jenna again.

[Pestz4Evah]

Great episode, one of the best of the season.

Steve Buscemi back as the private investigator and he was hilarious.

[BeerBandit]

Irregardless, that was a great episode!

[Doctor Manhattan]

I'm still disturbed by Lutz farting. It moved Lizes hair but it seemed to come from the middle of the table, not to Liz's left where Lutz was sitting.

M. Night Shyamalan should be forced to have one of his characters say "Twist" whenever the ridiculous plot twist in his movies are revealed.

[Aggie]

"Isn't that the opening to Quantum Leap?" :clap:

[hammersavage]

Last episode of the season

Jack's biological father's health hangs in the balance as the pair start to build a relationship. Liz draws some attention as a relationship expert, despite her own many failed relationships, after an appearance on a talk show. Tracy is invited to speak at his old high school and Kenneth helps him overcome some embarrassing memories from those years.

[hammersavage]

Frank Lucas High School and fruit vision made me laugh hard

[paulisded]

Although he's not famous enough to make the promos, look for Rhett Miller of the Old 97's in the next few minutes.

[TheMojoPin]

Epic.

[paulisded]

Epic.

That was an amazing parody of charity songs...almost as great as "Old Aid" on Married With Children.

[hammersavage]

Epic.

You're a smart guy. Who was the dark haired chick in the back middle? She said something like 'some of us are drunk'? That was a bunch of people.



Rain storm Katrina made me laff. I wish Cerie had her own spinoff

I really laughed when Elvis and Clay duetted...and also Elvis' spoken middle.

Wasn't the girl Norah Jones?

Alan alda saying "A man crying about a baby and a chicken? I thought this was a comedy show!"

Classic!

Did I just hear Alec Baldwin call someone Furrrrrrunkis?

[paulisded]

Don't even think that for a second!!! We don't need another week of "they're ripping off O&A" threads!

I wonder why Steve Earle and Aiken aren't on the NBC list.

I wonder why Steve Earle and Aiken aren't on the NBC list.

And I thought I saw Colleen Haskell in there too. I could be wrong though.

"We sure had quite a year!"

"What are you talking about? It's May."

"Shhh!"

"Science was my favorite subject in school, especially the Old Testament."

[hammersavage]

Yep.

Edit: Here's the whole list from NBC.com:

Norah looked awesome then. And Michael MacDonald looked like shit

[paulisded]

Norah looked awesome then. And Michael MacDonald looked like shit

At least McDonald showed for the first time ever that he had a sense of humor.

He's still awful, though.

[WampusCrandle]

just watched the season finale and it was fucking great. tons of stars (which was a bit odd), but still great. the singing was too funny.

[ecobag2]

I'm going to really love the day I can sit down and waste time again.

What is this 30 rocks of which you speak?

[mikeyboy]

Hmmmmmmm.......

That was fantazz. Thnx, Mike.

[Furtherman]

I recently caught the episode where Alec Baldin played his gay mexican doppleganger evil soap opera star Generalissimo.

One of the funniest things I've ever seen on TV.

[drjoek]

30 Rock just got signed to show reruns on Comedy Central starting in 2011. Which means the show has commitments to produce new show for at least 2 more seasons.
Good News if you ask me.

[TheMojoPin]

Great news!

[TheGameHHH]

dope.....hands down, dopest show thats ever shown

[WampusCrandle]

Great news!

Best news!

[TooLowBrow]

Is this show over?

I thought it'd be returning this fall, along with 'The Office' and (ugh) 'Parks and Recreation'

[hammersavage]

It'll be back in a month or so. Weekend Update Primetime in the meantime.

[MagillaGorillaz]

I was let down by the season premiere. The ending leading into the Jay Leno show was just disappointing.

[pennington]

I was let down by the season premiere.

Yeah, it was pretty flat. Maybe they've run out of ideas; maybe it'll pick up speed as the season goes on.

[Fallon]

Yeah, it was pretty flat. Maybe they've run out of ideas; maybe it'll pick up speed as the season goes on.

I purposely watch 30 Rock last when catching up on my Thursday night DVR recordings because it's usually the best show, but last night was a stinkaroo. The whole night wasn't all that great, Office might have had the best episode and it was average at best.

[WampusCrandle]

loved the season premiere, though, it felt a bit off, for some reason. can't put my finger on it.

[Willmore]

Tracy: "A book hasn't caused me so much trouble since Where's Waldo went to that Barber Pole factory."



Brilliant.

[WampusCrandle]

tonight was another great episode. "the nerf shark is in the garbage bag, put him in the bathtub with water and a reef"

haha.

not surprised looking at the channel they broadcast it on, it's not even a major public one but just a sub channel of it which not everyone receives.
Most US sitcoms play on RTL, Sat1 or Pro7 which are the major channels there for comedy and sitcoms and soap operas

Not shocking.

This (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oazhH85NF4)isn't funny at all. You can't even understand what they are saying.

Alternatively, this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XUTBJIV93w)is hilarious.

[pennington]

The show is changing. It's turning into the Liz and Jack show.

Tina Fey's character has gone from being a harried sane person trying to deal with a bunch of nut cases to making her more and more disgusting every week. Alec Baldwin's character has gone from being the calm voice of network reason to a wacky guy. Jenna's character and Tracy's character have remained basically the same although I think they're running out of things for Tracy to say. The writers have been seen a lot less lately.

Maybe all those awards ruined that show.

Well said. I was thinking the exact same thing. The show is way off this season so far.

[Reephdweller]

I am not feeling this season at all so far. This show went from brilliant and funny to tired and mildly amusing at points.

[pennington]

I don't understand why they are turning Alec Baldwin's character into such a loser. I liked it when he was above all the insanity calmly commenting on it.

[booster11373]

The product placement bit turned me off last night

[WampusCrandle]

The product placement bit turned me off last night

though they are quite funny about it, it is starting to turn me off, as well.

[hammersavage]

though they are quite funny about it, it is starting to turn me off, as well.

it was the only thing about the episode I didn't like. its gone from tongue in cheek to just annoying.

but the rest of the episode was great. i think that people say the show has slipped are just trying to find something wrong. last night was as funny as episodes in the first two seasons.

[Willmore]

The product placement bit turned me off last night

Yeah, when they first did it with Snapple it was sort of cute. Now it's gotten cheesy.

[Marc with a c]

that "astronaut mike dexter" line killed me.

mike dexter is a fag.

not on vh1.

[underdog]

IS THAT MY CELL PHONE?!

Oh, no, it's in my hand.

[Curt]

Alec Baldwin killed me with one line. "Damn you, Tracey Jr"

[A.J.]

The Al Gore cameo was pretty good.

[Mitch&Murray]

The Al Gore cameo was pretty good.

Except they showed it as a preview during The Office. it would have been a funny surprise.
:thumbdown:

[booster11373]

Less Liz's personal life would make that show alot better

[AKA]

The D-Bag comment cracked me up - when Tracy Jr. said, "I know what that means," and Tracy Sr. quickly snapped, "And yet you won't tell me!"

[Marc with a c]

omfg was funny.

[hammersavage]

The nosebleed made me piss myself

[paulisded]

That final scene with the guy from Chips was pretty fucking funny too.

I lol'd, rewound it, and lol'd again.

Fantastic episode.

it has gotten very silly, but all the lines are brilliant.

I don't have an accent.

Now you guys know how it feels. It was all fun and games laughing at Jersey Shore

[Bob Impact]

Being from Connecticut I feel comfortable saying this...

You all have ridiculous accents.

[Willmore]

You all have ridiculous accents.

And you have Lieberman. We're even.

[angrymissy]

When Kenneth and the assistant had to put the hanger over their bodies and Alec Baldwin just says "You disgust me" to the assistant, I laughed for about 5 minutes.

Also they had some really good lines for Jenna last episode

[A.J.]

Fair enough. I'll be leaving in shame out of the side door if you want to throw rotten tomatoes at me.

[underdog]

This show is nearing not funny territory. There are still funny moments, but a lot of the humor just seems so dumb and forced now.

[Bob Impact]

I wouldn't go that far, but the cryogenically frozen stuff, particularly the Han Solo pose made me cringe.

[Reephdweller]

I'd say the last couple of episodes have been pretty damn funny, aside from the very last one.

[Doctor Manhattan]

That's it, NBC! You need to really make Bitch Hunter with Will Ferrell (http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/c5854dd083/bitch-hunter-w-will-ferrell) You've done a couple 10 second cut-aways on 30 Rock as a joke, but I would actually watch it every week. "Happy Birthday Bitches!"

And there is a precedent for doing something like this. The Colbert Report started off as a joke on the Daily Show. As you can see here. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jbo08GDTR8M) "It's French Bitch"

[sailor]

loved "our lady of reluctant integration"

[TonyStark]

Been liking some of the episodes lately though, even though it went through a rough patch there for a while.

The mother's day one made me laugh, there were some pretty funny mom moments and the Aldrin scene felt a little forced but "I walked all over your face!" had me laughing.

[Marc with a c]

this made me laugh for six minutes.

i couldn't find the set up for it, but this still makes me smile.

Being a background artist is an art form. Congratulations. But, once one has reached the pinnacle of one's career, one faces the inevitable conclusion that one has nowhere to go but down. So let the fall to obscurity be a gentle one, and may no one remember that you were once somebody - an extra - and may you not feel their pitying looks as you walk on the way to your glamourless job.

You're being generous. I watch it because I once liked it, but I don't know why I liked it anymore.

The shark is in the rear-view mirror. I don't know what the ratings are but the plug needs to be pulled after this season. They have their 5 years of shows to sell in syndication. Alec Baldwin can then try to get into politics and Tina Fey can mock Republicans with her cool friends all day.

There is nothing gay about the Princeton fight song
“Oh the merry men of Princeton, charging up the rear,

[pennington]

I'll bump this. Is anyone still following this show? There has been a lot of Kenneth this season; he's gone from page to NBC executive.

[StanUpshaw]

I watch it. I'm not sure if I follow it.

Are those the same thing?

[pennington]

I watch it. I'm not sure if I follow it.

i follow,watch,view and enjoy this show,still the best comedy on tv in my opinion,followed really closely by modern family and parks and rec

This show and Modern Family have fallen very hard, but they're both still pretty funny (30 Rock more so).

Parks & Rec I love.

parks and rec is great because leslie knope is damn likeable but 30 rock still has enuf subtle lines to bring me in

how anyone can watch a comedy on CBS is beyond me,i've dvr'd them all and they all just completely suck,chelsea and 2 broke girls are horrendously unfunny

P&R - I never got into it.

30 Rock - I agree with your comment although there is too much Kenneth this season.

Chelsea - I keep feeling there is potential there but I only watch parts of it if I happen to see it while flipping through the channels.

2 Broke Girls - There's something about that brunette that mesmerizes me. I stare at her like a creep in the park.

This show and Modern Family have fallen very hard

Modern Family - I'm not sure what happened there. The characters that seemed so new and different on TV now seem played out.

Modern Family - I'm not sure what happened there. The characters that seemed so new and different on TV now seem played out.

They tried to change it more into a normal sitcom to make it more accessible and successful. ABC ruined it. Now the wife is a shrieking cunt and the husband is the king of queens.

Maybe that's it. Actually all of the wives (if we include Cam) have all become shrill and angry and all of the husbands have become buffoons. The kids (even Manny) are all becoming bland.
