So why do they keep Jane Krakowski in the opening title credits when she's never on she show?

I hope we return to form next week.

The piggy-back race on the monitor in the background of one of the scenes was cracking me up!

Funny episode. When the show started with a ad for MILF Island, I thought it was a real show.

First off MILF Island has to be the single greatest show idea ever!
As far as this episode goes, it was different but it worked. My favorite part was at the end with Liz and Jack...the stuttering was great and the quick shot of her pigeoned toe foot was great.

Agreed the directing or shooting style or timing was just, off, somewhat. Plus Liz was just really pissed the entire ep.

I think the change in style was deliberate -- to make it tie in directly with MILF Island and seem more like a reality show.
I loved the cutaways to the fart machine sketch while Liz was defending her writing as art.

Episode was great though.
"This is American Eagle!"

Glad to have 30 Rock back again.
I thought it was hilarious when Pete got the 4 digits dialed and it was his extension. Especially after he threw his cell phone for one of the numbers.

At first I thought it was a cell phone but when I watched it again I realized it was his watch.

They shot the 30 Rock stuff the same way they shot the MILF Island scenes: dark, overdramatic and almost deliberately sloppy in that reality show kinda way.

I loved when they were giving a dramatic speech about never giving up and they show Pete dragging the candy machine across the room.
And when he takes his shirt off but doesn't get his arm out.
