Amazon.com Lightning Deal 8/17/10 9am EST

Link to Amazon.com Gold Box page which should show the Lightning Deal at 9 am.

It's unknown whether this will be a DVD title, BD title or something available in both formats like today's DOTD (Dexter: Seasons 1-3). Here's the clue for the lightning deal: TV show hailed by Entertainment Weekly as “Simply the Best TV” and by your grandparents as “confusing” and “too fast.”

Sounds like 30 Rock.

Correct. Seasons 1-3 for $62.49.

A measly $11-12 cheaper than what Amazon was selling it for. Also, it looks like this was $55 at Amazon just a few weeks ago. This is a show I'd like to pick up, but since it has been cheaper before it's guaranteed to be cheaper later on.

Nicely done--is the above some kind of known catch phrase? I've watched the show from the beginning but wouldn't have identified it from that.

The hint was taken directly from the product page:
Product Description
Re-experience all of your favorite moments in this 58-episode box set of the Primetime Emmy® and Golden Globe® Award-winning show 30 Rock. Hailed by Entertainment Weekly as “Simply the Best TV” and by your grandparents as “confusing” and “too fast.” Executive producer and writer Tina Fey stars as TV writer Liz Lemon alongside brash network executive Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin). Together they tackle the everyday chaos of a live variety TV show with unpredictable lead actors, Tracy Jordan and Jenna Maroney (Tracy Morgan and Jane Krakowski), and naïve NBC page Kenneth Parcell (Jack McBrayer). Use money to buy the complete first three seasons of 30 Rock and enjoy all the corporate intrigue, sexual espionage, sandwich-eating, inbred royalty, singing puppets and wigs! Plus special bonus features…

All you have to do is copy/paste the clue into Google and 9 times out of 10 you'll find the product. Try the clue above and see what you get.
