30 Rock: Season 4

30_rock_logo.png


The funniest sitcom on television (don't argue) will be back to us on Thursdays, starting on October 30. And the distinct lack of a writers' strike means it'll have 22 episodes instead of 15. Hooray!

This will be the best part of winter. Better than the increase in cuddling, hot chocolate, snowball fights, Christmas, and perky nipples.

You can find more clips on Hulu, and a bunch of interviews and such

    I wonder if they're going to reference the end of last season, or just ignore it.

    You can check wikipedia for the synopsis of the first episode they'll air.

    I'd rather be surprised!

    How does one not get NBC anymore?

    I haven't read it either. I saw it when I was checking for what time the episode would air, and went into spacebar-spoiler-avoidance-mode.

    So excited for the new season. Been going through the first two on DVD again in preparation for the 30th.

    The whole "Three months later" thing.

    My bet would be most of the stuff just being referenced as throwaway lines, with the exception of things like Frank's video game, which seem like they could become plot points for the new season.

    easily my favorite show on tv, grabbed the 2nd season dvd last week because I was out and it was there so there was really no other possible outcome.

    I always respected Tina Fey, and obviously she's attractive, but it wasn't until the Palin stuff that I really fell in love with her. Like in a hyper disturbing way. I'm thinking about starting to stalk her.

    love 30 Rock. It's basically everything I hoped 'Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip' would be (i.e. funny). Can't wait for season 3

    I wish Studio 60 would have actually worried less about being funny in a way. The clips of the fake show's skits were the absolute worst part of studio 60. The show I didn't think was all that bad otherwise.

    Well, except for the fact that like one member of the cast (the director guy, Danny from the West Wing) was likable and all the women were utter retards and gender stereotypes who needed a man to save them and responded to stalking and special pleading.

    Except for that the show wasn't that bad otherwise.

    EDIT: 30 Rock is awesome though. Yay for Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin especially.

    The idea that your vote is a moral statement about you or who you vote for is some backwards ass libertarian nonsense. Your vote is about society. Vote to protect the vulnerable.

    I agree it was a well written show but the skits were painfully not funny. When your Saturday night live-ish skits are less funny that what the actual show has become you're doing something very wrong

    Get in line man. Seriously though, Tina Fey's great, plus she and Amy Poehler do great work together. I found this clip where Tina and Amy play "sexy tennis" that was actually pretty funny.

    Hulu is trying to become a major power as far as web TV. It has a lot of shows already officially backing it. I'm guessing having 30 Rock premiere on it is sort of a hype builder for them considering how great the show is.

    that was the greatest moment in television history

    I have tried explaining why I think this was the best joke in the series to some friends, but in doing so I inevitably have to explain Lemon Party to them and look like some kind of deviant weirdo to a bunch of non-internet-based lifeforms. I had a guy at work ask me about it, I told him to look it up, and when he came in the next day he punched me in the arm.

    I need new friends and coworkers.

    They did the same thing with "Chuck" with less fanfare.

    Earlier I thought this would be back when The Office started. There were some moments of panic while searching through my cable listings "where is 30 Rock???" afraid the unthinkable had happened.

    Yeah, I was worried too when the Office started. I actually didn't see much of last season, so it's nice that Hulu still has some episodes up.

    If I wasn't already laying down I would have fallen over laughing, and my mom and sister just stared at me. Thankfully I got away with "It's a thing from the internet."
