Loved Liz's line at the beginning about blowing all three...opportunities.

The fanny pack and the TV in the background playing Brokeback Mountain


"Marty I think we should go black"

Last weeks episode was a classic and this one felt like one of the weaker shows especially that aired earlier in the season.

The nanny footage dragged.

Kenneths role has been decreasing and I think this was one of the episodes missing Tracy because of the surgery?

The humor just wasn't there this week. I actually enjoyed the plot more than the comedy which is just weird coming from 30 Rock.

Damn, didn't catch that.

There was definitely something off about this week. The plot could have been hysterical, but it just wasn't.

The nanny stuff wasn't very good, but I liked everything else - especially the way they wrapped it up at the end.

The shark sandwich line was really funny, as was Jack's complete misunderstanding of how supermarkets work ($500 bag of potatoes, the "grocery concierge").

I liked this episode.

I liked it. Had some good moments. I loved Liz's throw-away at the end. "Goodbye Emily Dickenson! Oh God, a hawk got her!"

Can someone explain why everyone in the writer's room reacted with disgust when Liz said she named the cat Emily Dickinson?

My guess is a combination of Emily Dickinson basically being a shut in and sort of a poster child for the spinster type Liz was striving to become.

I love how unlady like Liz is.

Anders: Can I get you a drink? I'm having white wine with ice cubes and sprite.
Liz: That's my drink... I keep a thermos of it by my toilet!

Tina Fey was singing the song being played in the club

All the names she mentions are part of the crew of 30 Rock

Favorite part by far was how they incorporated Pete into the Loverboy video. I had to rewatch that 2-3 times after the episode was over.
