On the Prowl
Does anyone else love 30 Rock? I know it's quite a niche show and I don't know how much of a gay following it has (if any), but it's currently the only show I watch religiously and the only comedy I can safely say i've seen at least four times over (each episode, of each series, up to 4.12 that aired last week in the US).
Whether it's Tina Fey as Liz Lemon getting into stupid work situations, or Jenna finding new ways of exploring her own narcissism, or any other character it always gives me the chuckles. Sometimes I think I find things funny that nobody else notices, like last week when Tracy called Liz "LiLem" (parody on perez hilton calling Lindsay Lohan LiLo) and also when Jenna was distraught her stalker had lost interest in her possibly stalking someone else, and she jerked "It's one of those kids from GLEE isn't it!!!?" a clear shout-out to the lost best comedy emmy this year.
Other moments that had me cracking up were last week when Jack took Jenna into his office for a presentation on dealing with harrasing mothers and the slideshow showed the word saying "NO" in different languages where Jack said "That word, "NO", is your best friend" and Jenna responded with "best friend with benefits?
"
I sometimes think of the show as a live action family guy in a way with it's nonsensical flashbacks that serve no purpose to the plot than otherwise to make you laugh, like last week where Liz was asked if she watches the news for advice on the global market and instead it flashed back to her while she voiced over saying she gets all her money advice from PBS - with a cartoon playing and animated characters asking "Should I put my money in the housing market or in stocks?" and liz yelling "stocks, mr money machine!".
Hee.
