"I am a Jedi!! I am a Jedi!!!"

"5 inches...but thick."

"Are there other black nerds, or is it just you and Urkel?"

The Jay Leno and Ray Romano impressions.

"Scotty from Geneal Hospital." LOL

Rachel Dratch as the cat lady. I hear she's going to be playing different characters each week. So that should be awesome.

Liz dancing with the strippers. :lol:

I love single camera comedies! If this show becomes a hit, NBC should try to rebuild Must See TV Thursdays with The Office, Earl, and 30 Rock.

It was okay, I liked Tracy Morgan and Alec Baldwin. One thing I hated is that they gave Jane Kracowski the Rachel Dratch role. TV GUIDE ON DEMAND had a preview of the show and the scenes with Rachel in the role were much funnier. Just her facial expressions did it all for me.

I liked it. I liked all the charcters in it. I really like the guy, who at the beginning was giving people a tour of The Girlie Show. The "5 inches, but it's thick" line had me laughing a lot and most of the Tracey Morgan scenes were also funny.

Loved the "putting AIDS in the chicken nuggets" and when the guy delivered the hemroid cream to Jenna in front oif Alec Baldwin's character. Really good cast and excellent writing.

NBC has given a full-season order to "30 Rock," the lone freshman series in the group, following some of its best ratings performance of the season. It becomes the fourth new NBC show to be picked up this season, following "Heroes," "Studio 60" and "Friday Night Lights."

Yippeee!!!!!!

This week's show was great! Tracey Morgan and his meat machine, Rachel Dratch as Barbara Walters, Tina Fey's "you smell like a stripper,", and Whoopi's guest appearance for her "Exercising with Whoopi"....hilarious show!! And Alec Baldwin is priceless. I so hope they renew it for a second season. If youre not watching, you should be....!!

    • Thanks!   Was anyone watching during this time? Wondering how Peggy’s rape played out onscreen. It just seems cruel to subject the Brooks family to this trauma a 2nd time.   Feels like the writers have already given up on the character of Jennifer, even though she sticks around another year-plus. She should be a passionate and fierce protective mother, but instead she seems just reactionary (and not even mentioned in this recap) This was also the case in ‘73 when Chris was raped. The writers are definitely more invested Stuart as the Brooks parent.
    • BTG got another SNL reference at 00:50  CONTEXT (so it isn't misconstrued) in this joke swap segment, Michael Che frequently makes his white cohost Colin Jost read racist jokes written by Che.

    • It's obvious that Israel's presence is a major divisive issue, and this is something that the EBU needs to deal with. According to the now published results Israel got 13 out of a possible 19 max points in the semi-final, and while their song isn't bad there's no way they would get those numbers without some kind of manipulation/political voting. They are clearly using this contest as a way of improving their somewhat tarnished reputation. I know that some people are comparing this to the massive sympathy votes that Ukraine gets and which propelled them to victory in 2022, but I feel that that was a more genuine show of support than this concerted effort from Israel to influence the televoting. I even had an ad on Youtube from Israel in Swedish(!) asking for votes! It might not be against any rules, but it feels a bit icky nonetheless.
    • Yeah, as you wrote, an Israeli win would have been a political disaster. Congratulations to Austria. 0 points from the televoting to Switzerland was a disgrace. Other than that, I really enjoyed the show ... but I'm also glad that Eurovision season is over

    • Hahaha Sorry if I was too negative, I just started typing and typing once I got going hahaha
    • @dc11786 Thanks for taking time to answer my various questions, along with giving your thoughts on the different writing teams. I wonder why they didn't just have Ryder and TR leave together if Jane was going anyway. The discussions over the last few pages have made me more interested in watching these episodes than I have been over the years - without the extra details and analyses provided, these years can be difficult to decipher (not helped by how often Jo seems like a side character).
    • I didn't think this was very good (I've never yet seen a good episode of this revival), but you do get a lot of Michael Stroka. And if you are a Donna Reed Show fan, you also get Paul Petersen.

    • A very rare, fascinating look at camera blocking in a 1980 episode. Very loose, almost startlingly so (who expects to see Will Vernon with a cig dangling out of his mouth?). @vetsoapfan There's some Jacquie Courtney content in the back half of the video.

    • Barbara Stock shares memories of her time on Dallas, including that Ken Kercheval was the only cast member she knew outside of the show and that she did not actually realize she was being written out. https://www.remindmagazine.com/article/29593/barbara-stock-spenser-for-hire-dallas-chips-spinoff-doing-know/
    • Thanks @Paul Raven  I concur that this isn't the most interesting material, but I do wish I could see how JoBeth Williams played those trial moments.
