Best episode so far, imho. I actually prefer less Tracy Morgan, so the focus on Baldwin & Fey was better.
Favorite line: In five years we'll all be working for him. Or be dead by his hand.

Great episode, this is seeming to find its stride. Loved the Tracy Morgan line about the "Texas Doozies" version of poker with all of the wild cards and "2s are 5s" (or something like that).
Also, the giant shrimp, made out of shrimp, and diving into a bowl of shrimp.

It's a shame that that whole scene was almost entirely stolen from a Sex and the City scene involving Miranda's self-Heimlich Manuever ("Four Women and a Funeral" S2).

"...and if it helps you.....I would let you..do...........stuff.....to me."
That one had me doing a double take.
Didn't think Fey had it in her to pretty much carry an episode.

I wasn't crazy about the pilot but this episode made me a believer. I'm not sure if it will be able to hold its own against CSI and Grey's Anatomy once it moves to Thursday but I'm hopeful.

According to tvguide.com, last night "Soon-to-be-relocated 30 Rock (6 million) anted up 150,000 more viewers versus last week, while the soon-to-be-MIA Twenty Good Years (5.4 mil) surged 400K."
I'm sure with a better lead in like MNIE and The Office, will help this show grow, that is unless NBC pulls the plug.

Funny, I thought of "Six Feet Under". It happened to one of their clients and Ruth got a freaked out about being alone for the rest of her life.
I guess this is a common fear for women....

I thought that was hilarious.
I'm really liking this show more and more. I can't wait for it to move to Thursday.
