in comparison to what they've done before it was :meh. best parts: tracy randomly talking to strangers and that fat broad welcoming liz into her sex life with that bald dude. gotta wait for the build up of the whole season.

i think the kenneth character has kind of run its course, having the main plot be focused on him was suspect, lots of funny tracy morgan lines, the thing about liz and pete sneaking around just wasnt funny and that one guy that they kept forgetting was on the show, isnt really even on the show and he looks like an upperlcass crackhead, jenna's character is getting old as well, this show needs some new characters

Tracy Morgan Takes Tina Fey to the Strip Club; Blasts Former SNL Castmates:

No matter what you may think of Tracy Morgan, you have to admit that he always seems to make an impression.

Just ask Tina Fey, who was lucky enough to go with Tracy to "after-after-after-after party" years ago when they were part of the cast of Saturday Night Live.

"Friends of mine were running an illegal strip club they called the Loft. It was in an office space they'd rented and converted into an after-the-after-party spot. They put a stage in it, they put a few futons all around, and they'd get strippers and girls to come and do shows," Morgan revealed in his upcoming memoir, I Am the New Black. "I invited everyone to go down there one week. And Tina Fey, Rachel Dratch and a few others came along. I didn't tell any of them what they were in for, so it was all cool when we got there.

ג€œAt first ... they thought it was just a private party. Then these two girls came out onstage and started [engaging in sex acts], and that just shut it down,ג€ the comedic actor continued. ג€œAll the grips and crew guys from 'SNL' were standing around and loving it, but my castmates took one look at that, turned right around and rushed out of there."

With stuff like that, itג€™s easy to see why Fey wasnג€™t on Tracyג€™s bad side. The same canג€™t be said for fellow Not Ready for Primetime players Chris Kattan and Cherri Oteri, whom Morgan had less than flattering memories of.

"I had my finger on the pulse of urban comedy, but when I brought my act to 'SNL,' those mother--------- just felt bad for me. None of the cast I came up with saw this future for me. No, sir,ג€ the entertainer said of his 10-year-stint on the show. ג€œAll I have to say about that is, where's Chris Kattan now? Where's Cheri Oteri now? That b---- can't even get arrested."

It definitely seems like Tracy got the last laugh. Heג€™s on the Emmy-winning 30 Rock with Fey, appeared in various movies over the years and hosted the VH1 Hip Hop Honors for the second year straight. Still, there seems to be nothing like beef to help sell whatever it is your offering. Funny, ainג€™t it?

Basically given up on this shit. There was one great episode a couple months ago, but since then, I watch the show in hopes that somewhere along the way, the writers will find a way to insert a funny here and there. This show has run its course. 30 Rock and The Office have been replaced by Community and Parks & Rec for me.

NBC is falling the fuck off again.

"Community" is for the Ackbars of the world. Aside from that Simple Rock kid doing the "Bender Christmas" monologue, what has this show given the world?

"Parks & Recreation" is Amy Poehler impersonating Steve Carrell. Ansari is the only redeeming quality. A show that can make Louis C.K. sucks deserves the axe.

"30 Rock" is comedy for metrosexuals. Men who actively laugh at Tina Fey should be checked for soul vaginas.

"The Office" was funny last night, but is hit-and-miss. Time to end it. Next season will be the last. Dwight Kurt Schrute >>>>>>>>>

That whole plot with Tracy's image being tarnished was funny. This whole thing with Cabletown is :arrow: so far. They need something more over the top to get the season going more. Its still dragging its feet compared to the others.

Community is funny as hell though. Its been over taking 30 Rock with the :lol:z now.

30 rock is just as good as season one
i was a little disappointed back then actually. it never blew me away
but the writings strong, good mix of characters
although some of the side characters im not sure why they're on the show
what is the point of black harvard dude or that balding guy
1. Nas
2. Drake

that's pretty much it fam.

30 Rock season 1 suffers from Fey's acting.

Season 2 is where it's at. After that the show began a slow decline.

Now that Community regularly out absurds 30 Rock and P&R out hearts The Office, NBC's thursday is turn-off able after 9:00.

Parks and Rec is probably the best comedy on TV right now with Community and Archer tied for 2nd.

yep.

30 rock sucks this season. it's just as broad as always, but the writing has really suffered. Basically, Fey has fallen the fuck off. Date Night looks like it's going to be the most talent-filled suckfest in a long time.

Community is still great though. Probably my favorite of the NBCs. When the office is good it's better than Parks, but the office is pretty hit or miss.

Are you kidding me? Season 1 is great! Fey and Baldwin MAKE 30 Rock. 1 is just as good as Season 2, if not better.

Season 3 was pretty damn good too. I don't get the hate here. NBC has had some pretty horrible fucking programs and they finally have two gems in 30 Rock and The Office.

But some people just hate everything they watch or see or hear. It's all good though, we all have our own opinions :lol:
