National Association for Zero Intolerance [30 Rock]

Had News Radio not included Andy Dick, it may have been a better show. "Buttah-FOO-co. FOO-co."

And nothing they've done the past couple seasons comes anywhere close to the absolute brilliance that is, say, Season 3.
It's sad, but the show may not have much left.

I just found a reason to watch a season of 30 Rock.
I think pretty much every show drops off after 2 or 3 seasons. 30 Rock probably beat the average in that regard.
Probably my favorite exchange in 30 Rock:
Liz (trying to guess)- "You're a man?"
Salma- "Seriously? Do you want to see me naked?"
Liz- "...kinda."
Yes, he did. Right after the line, "I've never made a mistake, so I don't know what that feels like."
Intentional.
Jack: This isn't a choice, Lemon
Liz: Ugh! You are being so trans-vaginal right now!

I figured it was intentional because of the way he overenunciated it.
But I also entertained the possibility that I had gone mad.
I'm 4 episodes in so far, and its a bit weird. I'm enjoying it well enough, I guess. However, for being an ensemble show, I find it strange that so much of the ensemble are barely in it at all. It feels more like the Tina, Alec, and Tracy show, with a bunch of nobody's as background filler. Ensemble seems to be the genre of sitcoms I watch the most (HIMYM, Big Bang, Community, P&R, New Girl), but for some reason 30 Rock feels really different to me. It doesn't really feel like an ensemble cast.
The entire writing staff feels like they should be important. But thus far, they have been marginalized and they are all so kooky that I don't know how interested I even am in seeing them developed.
When I started season 1 of P&R I hated every minute of it. Then magically, somewhere in the middle of season 2 it transformed into one of my favorite shows ever. I'm hoping that will be the case with 30 Rock as well.
Yeah, but that's because the first season of P&R was a terrible wreck that mistakenly thought it was supposed to be a shot-for-shot recreation of The Office, with Leslie as Michael Scott and Paul as Jim. Except Paul had the charisma of a dry sponge and DumbLeslie was so much "funny" as she was "horribly grating."
With 30 Rock, I think it peaks around season 3 or 4, and then starts spinning its wheels hardcore. The first seasons had so many intriguing plotlines that just simply never get resolved, to this day, and the same old jokes are used over and over again. Like, did you know that Jenna is a psychotic fame-whore who will do anything for attention? And that Tracy is a retarded manchild who is prone to random acts of stupidity? And how Kenneth is a hillbilly rube?
Incidentally, my favorite moment:
Jenna suddenly disappears and reappears right behind Kenneth. He turns and sees her and gasps and says, "Vampyr!" It was so randomly awesome.
Maddie: "I am not!"
Riley: "You're a marsupial!"
Maddie: "I am a placental mammal!"
I approve of wacky.
Seriously, they should do a live show every season moving forward.

Im glad you said that. That was easily the hardest Ive laughed at something on TV in as long as I can remember.
Oh god that animated GIF just made me laugh so hard at work I had to step out of the room.
