30 Rock Thread!!!

[CaliforniaDreamin]

Oh, and speaking of my dad watching it, we were talking about Avery and I said something about busting out laughing the first time I saw the name of her show. He looked at me kinda confused and then it dawned on him. He felt so stupid missing that.

I heard on tv this morning that Tracy Jordan had a kidney transplant. He is expected to only miss 2 episodes.

SPOILER:
There is one scene I can't watch unless my bladder is completely empty: it's when Jack and Kenneth have broken in to Nancy Donavans house and Kenneth is on her computer looking for her passcode to her voice mail and he accidentally takes a picture of him and Jack with the webcam. Then he accidentally sets it as her wallpaper. And then he accidentally sends the picture to her entire address book! That makes me laugh til I cry!

I am Liz Lemon.

I have never related to any character as much as I do her. So is this thread ok for spoilers, because there are a few scenes I'd love to bring up that make me giggle just thinking about them?

This. I was shocked how similar I am to her. Liz, Kenneth, and Jack are probably my favorite characters.

I know that people aren't usually anything like the characters they portray on tv, but I would be so disappointed to find out she is absolutely nothing like Liz. Her character traits are so specific I have to believe she uses her own life as an influence on writing the part of Liz. Probably the biggest thing I have in common with her is the feet thing. I HATE feet. And Liz always mentions something about feet, like she found that one island she was going to vacation at that required socks with sandals or something like that. LMAO!

She's said she did make Liz into a fictionalized version of herself, to a point.

You know how people will write fictionalized characters based on themselves, only better. I think Liz is like Tina, only with Tina's worst habits being magnified.

I just discovered AD about 6 months ago on Netflix. It's one of the smartest shows I have ever watched. I pray there will be a movie!

I love the clip of Avery on Mad Money, and it's just a clip of Avery being bounced between a person in a bear costume and a person in a bull costume. And she's yelling "What's happening? Which one of you is Cramer? I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE!" Or something along those lines.

Jack loves her, not really in a romantic way. He sees her as his kid sister.
