30 Rock

If watching the entire first season in one day doesn't show how quickly I got addicted to this 30 Rock, I don't know what does. After hearing a lot about it, I decided to start watching it one weekend. And it didn't take much time after that for me to catch up to the new episodes. 30 Rock has a mix of crazy people, awkward people, and people who are just plain insane. 30 Rock is based on a show originally called The Girlie Show, but after an adjustment in management, the character of Jack comes in and changes everything.

One of the highlights of the show is Liz Lemon played by Tina Fey. And every time I see Tina Fey I can't help but see Sarah Palin. Liz is a really awkward character who frequently talks about cheese and her awkward life stories. I love the flashbacks to little Liz because they're hilarious. Liz's awkwardness is about half the show (at least to me): "If I have learned anything from my Sims family: When a child doesn't see his father enough he starts to jump up and down, then his mood level will drop until he pees himself." Her obsession with food is also one of the best parts of the show: "I'm gonna go talk to some food about this".

Jack (Alec Baldwin), the head boss of the show, tells things like they are. He's not afraid to say what he wants to say:  "Women your age are more likely to get mauled at a zoo than to get married". He always tries to help Liz with her problems (and she has a lot of them).

Tracy Jordan (Tracy Morgan) is the insane character. "I don't want to disappoint my Japanese public. Especially Godzilla. Hahaha I'm just kidding. I know he doesn't care what humans do". He believes in strange things and makes up things that are just weird. Along with him is the other star of the former Girlie Show, Jenna Maroney (Jane Krakowski) who is also insane. The other characters on 30 Rock have to cater to Jenna and Tracy because they are the stars and there is no show without them. So even when the two act like small children, they have to find some way to get them on stage.

The character of Kenneth (Jack McBrayer) cannot be forgotten. Kenneth is a page at the show so he has to do everyone else's dirty work. He's another awkwardly funny character: "I want to see a show where women get their hair cut while listening to salsa music". He also takes everything literally and doesn't understand simple things very well.

My favorite thing about 30 Rock is it's quotability. It's almost like every line from the show is funnier and funnier. It also has all different types of humor which I love. I also relate it to being creepy and stalking my life, although it might have been more that my life was 30 Rock for a period of time. Kenneth offering to serve paninis right before I actually go eat one for dinner was a little bit creepy. And there's no such thing as a post about 30 Rock that doesn't include the Muffin Top Song.

I give it (I wish I could go over 10): 10/10
