30 Rock -- "Lee Marvin vs Derek Jeter; Khonani" -- 04/22/10

30 Rock

Synopsis for episode 1 at 8:30pm

Spoiler:
Affairs of the heart jolt Jack, who must make a romantic choice between volatile anchor Avery Jessup (Elizabeth Banks) and unassuming childhood sweetheart Nancy Donovan (Julianne Moore). Meanwhile, Liz plunges into the dating pool by going to a singles event with Jenna; and a bigoted remark creates office divisions and affects Toofer.


Synopsis for episode 2 at 9:30pm

Spoiler:
When Liz discovers the staffers have been shutting her out of their weekly off-hours gatherings, she sets out to show them her fun party-hearty side. Elsewhere, Jack must make a decision regarding the janitors; and Kenneth helps Tracy in his efforts to be a better husband.

i really hate to say this, but i think the jokes are getting a little stale. some great moments mixed in with too many deja vu moments.

The second episode was awesome with Khonani's "coughing:"

He has classic car *cough* excuse me, classic cardboard collection.

I can go to fox *cough* excuse me, Fox River Casino.

(Paraphrased since I couldn't remember the exact lines)

I also yelled damn out loud twice when Jack used his heart. First time was the same score, second time was when the first dart landed dead center. I lost it when the second dart hit the first one.

Too bad the Conan joke was already out dated since he went to TBS

I think I had a scheduling conflict on my DVR...I only got the 2nd episode.

Kenneth's "I love you" to Jack had me rolling.

That clip for Bitch Hunter had me rolling. Gotta say, I'd watch that show.

Yeah, it would have been funnier if the janitor said "Fox ... (cough) ... TBS" instead.

The 2nd show was better since there was no Julianne Moore.

She should stick to movies.


How many episodes has Tina Fey wrote this season? It seems like half of the shows are being written by somebody else when you check the opening credits.

3. Two by herself, and last night's first episode, which was co-written by her.

^ this!

Both episodes were great last night! I think I did enjoy the second one better though.. Julianne Moore's accent irritated me so much!

The physical comedy in the first episode was great.

"Chelsea Handler! Over here!"

Got a laugh out of me. She & Elizabeth Banks could be sisters.

^That's especially funny since there's a great story about Elizabeth Banks being interviewed for Entertainment Weekly, just as she was starting to 'blow up'. She's in a hotel in Toronto with the reporter and someone comes up gushing about how much they love her ... the person is super excited to actually be meeting CHELSEA HANDLER. Banks plays along

Same here, even though I only really took notice of the resemblance during the dinner with Jack later in the episode.

The "Bitch Hunter" clip and Liz's Jazz routine cutaways were hilarious!

I loved the home security commercial with a break-in:

"Aaaaaahhhhhhh!! Black man!!!"

I've heard people describe this show as funny, but not LOL funny. They are wrong. Those jokes had me rolling too.

I love Julianne, but agree that she sucks in this show.
