30 Rock -- "Up All Night" -- 02/08/07

No thread for 30 Rock, last nights show was great it had everything in it, but the highlight was Jack getting more and more wasted, and lemon looking incredibly hot by the end of the episode, or maybe I was getting more drunk!

I think this was one of the best episodes of the season so far!

I liked the episode as well. I love Kenneth. Hope he hits the hot blonde chick.

Great episode.
Tina Fey has earned a lot of respect from me. She isn't afraid to put it out there ... sometimes both of them.

Lots of Baldwin in this episode.

Yes, maybe the best episode yet. I was laughing almost the entire show!

The Cerie and Kenneth stuff was good. I agree about Lemon looking great at the end.

The "gay mom" joke had me rolling. If all the episodes were as good as this one, this would be one of my favorite shows.

I liked when Cerie said she would kill J.D. and he thought it was "awesome."

This is the best comedy on TV, and I'm a big fan of The Office, which is great too, but really, the last few shows have been superb. I'm a big fan of callbacks, in jokes, throwaways (all the stuff that got Arrested Development such great ratings), so I was falling down over the transitions between Jack's partying scenes:

-He's in the bar, drinking from a beer can in a paper bag(???) -- cut to:

-He's at the newstand, drinking from the bagged beer. Then he has a piece of fried chicken(???) -- cut to:

-He's in the cafeteria, putting fried chicken in his styrofoam tray.

OK, not really funny, but surreal and clever for clever's sake. I love it.

This ep wasn't as rip roaring funny as the ones in the past but it was still good.

If you ask me, the past couple of episodes pushed things a little too far. The head and hair episode has been the best one so far if you ask me, and the rurjur one the week before was also quite strong.

Liked this episode but agree with Jimmy James above.

Also, Rachel Dratch is a distractingly bad actress. That cameo thing just ain't working.

Why don't they just add Dratch as a writer character? It's called The Girly Show, so the number of men on the writing staff makes little sense.

Wonder if Fey feels she owes her one, since Dratch got pushed out of her role in favor of Krakowski? The cameos allow her to show her chops better that a weekly credit of Female Writer #1....

The cameos have been uniformly terrible, though. They're easily the worst part of the show. They need to stop them and find a way to give her some screen time that doesn't suck the life out of the show.

I like Dratch's cameos. My favorite so far has been the 'Blue Dude' that Tracy sees when he's off his medication.

I didn't think it was as good as last week episode but it was still a strong episode. I loved the scenes with Baldwin and Rosellini together. I wasn't a big fan of Fey when she was in SNL but I'm loving her in this show.

I like Baldwin and Rosellini as well, hope they have her back from time to time.

The "gay mom" joke was right up there with Ryan knocking away the bouquet in the office.

I enjoy Dratch's cameos, they tend not to overdo it and it's fun in a "where's waldo" kind of way.

I guess you could compare it to "Where's Waldo", if Waldo was always pushing himself front and center and screaming in a shrill voice on every page.
