TV You Should Be Watching: 30 Rock
30 Rock is as of a couple hours ago the 2007 emmy award winning Best Comedy. I for one and very happy about this because this show is genius. Taking place on the set of a comedy skit television program, much like Saturday Night Live, the main characters are those that work on the show, the actors, the writers, the producers and the boss of it all. Tina Fey who plays the head writer of the show is also the creator and head writer of 30 Rock. She is the mastermind behind the show and since she worked as writer on SNL for many years she has a lot of experience. This show has amazing talent and very funny dialouge for each of them. Alec Baldwin plays the head boss over the show, Tracy Morgan plays the head star "Tracy Jordan" and also wackiest character, even Jack McBreyer who plays a Page at NBC studios is genius. It's been compared and I will continue the comparison to the the late great show Arrested Development in terms of quick witted and intellectual humor as well as able to throw in some weird stuff to make it that much more enjoyable. Season One is currently on dvd and if you can get your hands on a disc or two I'd give it a chance, one of the breakthrough episodes is one in which Tracy is going to be the guest on the Conan O'Brien show, Conan does some amazing lines in the episode. Season Two will be on television starting on Thursday October 4th, at 8:30/7:30c.
If you want to watch episodes of the first season they are currently available to watch online at nbc's website at
