Synopsis:

Spoiler:
When a blog accuses TGS of being misogynistic, Liz hires an upcoming female comedian, Abby Flynn (guest star Cristin Milioti). Liz's plan backfires when Abby seems to be falling into female stereotypes, and Liz and Jenna decide to put Abby in her place. Meanwhile, Jack Donaghy intends to become the successor to KableTown but can only achieve this by eliminating the competition, the granddaughter to the CEO, Kaylie Hooper (guest star Chloe Grace Moretz).

500 Days of Summer -> Kickass -> Let Me In -> 30 Rock -> Martin Scorscese's Hugo Cabret remake, thats a better career than most adult actresses get.

Just a heads up. I've got time warner and this isn't listed as a new episode. The description actually says something like, "the life of a female head television writer." It's still set up to record, as of now, but knowing my dvr it will most likely cancel the recording at the last minute.

Still interested after she revealed her true identity?

I hope the next new episode is in March but next week there is a Office marathon.

Hitgirl is growing up, it's weird to see her much taller than in her recent film roles.

growth spurt.

I like how she's a good enemy for Jack. And unlike his previous foes, she's not inherently evil. In fact, you could say she's the good guy here.

Loved when Jenna talked to the computer like it would obey her.

It looked like the homeless guy was touching his package when he asked Liz and Abby to kiss.

I spent about half the episode thinking Sarah Silverman was playing Abby Flynn.

for Chloe Moretz! I had no idea she was going to be in this episode! She fit well into the episode and hopefully will get a chance to do more episodes in the future.

Abby: Our nips just touched. Mine are so hard.
Liz: Mine are different sizes.

Ah! Bob from the Dresden Files. I thought I recognized him. It's funny IMDB didn't list him as on 30 Rock.

The Abby Flynn part was played perfectly. I really expected the resolution to be a let down, but she nailed it. She would be a great as a re-occurring character, but they seem to have written this as a one and done and that is a shame. The Chloe Moretz exchange was classic. I actually was convinced Jack was manipulating her.
