30 Rock

I say bring on the guest stars if it means it'll bring in more viewers. I want this show to last a long time, namean?

[John Junk]

Nah.  The show had guest stars all through the first season, too, and that worked out fine.  I'll admit that Seinfeld wasn't great, but so what?

Perhaps.  NBC's promo just made it look like an onslaught.  Then again, NBC's promos have a long tradition of cringeworthiness. 

My thoughts exactly.  The inferior quality of NBC's promos is really the elephant in the living room of the television industry. People need to know about this.

People need to live every week like it's Shark Week.

This is an awesome statement on so many levels.

So I naively googled "Lemon Party" after last week's episode and am now traumatized beyond belief.  Mission accomplished, 30 Rock writers.  I should've known to just consult Laurie first.

I don't feel sorry for kids who see their mom on the internet for the first time anymore. It can always be worse.

Aw, let the geezers have their fun.  By all accounts, life in a retirement home is awfully dreary.

What about all those stories about crazy Florida nursing homes and wild humping? Lemon party was a documentary.

30 Rock is one of the few things I'm missing during the strike. I saw a UCB show with the guy who plays Kenneth the Page, and it's funny and strange to see him doing coke jokes.

I've decided not to read the entirety of this thread until I'm finished with the last few episodes of the first season. I'm absolutely in love with the show.. Very funny stuff, and the kind of person Fey portrays is extremely relateable.

Anybody know how I can catch up with Season 2 without getting punished?

Were you really defending that show 30 Rock? NBC's gonna ankle that laffer, mark my words.

Off topic, but wouldn't watching it online prove how valuable such a service is?

Or if you missed the episode when it airs, are you encouraged to not watch their work at all or download it illegally?

[Miss]

I support the writers. Do NOT get me wrong about that, and I think you know that's true.

However I was under the impression that the writers don't even get paid for the DVDs that are released of shows, so am I not to watch any of my DVDs I own as well?

Also - is the fact that I'm watching Season 1 on Netflix make me unsupportive of the writers strike?
