30 Rock Roundup


First of all I want to say that it was yet another spectacular episode by the creators of 30 Rock. Before I get into the recap and my sadness that it is the final episode of the season I want to say something about Alec Baldwin and this dumb voice mail that has suspiciously been leaked to the press. I really do not get why people are freaking out about it. I mean you hear way worse parenting at a local Wal-Mart. Now am I saying it was ok for him to call his daughter a pig, no, but you are also just getting one side of the story in a situation where the kid is being used as a pawn in a very nasty divorce. Now I know that is a little more serious than I typically like to be but I heard this is the reason he is trying to gt out of his contract with 30 Rock and there could be no bigger tragedy than him leaving the show. Now on to the recap.

Last week we left off with Tracey missing, fleeing for fear that he would get killed by the Black Crusaders. Of course Kenneth (masterfully played by Jack McBraer just look at this clip) is the only person who knows where he is located. The interrogation scene (sorry no clip but you can see the whole episode) is one of the funniest thing I have ever seen especially when he gets slapped.

as can be expected Kenneth's cousin goes all Misery on Tracy and Kenneth, Griz, and dot com have to come to the rescue. Unfortunately all of this stress with a wedding, Tracy missing, and his mom visiting gives Jack a heart attack. Liz Lemon is called becuase she is his emergency contact. The reason, becuase she is the only person who wouldn't hesitate to pull the plug. All in all a decent episode and I give it 3 out of 4 karate chops

By the hammer of Thor


So I have decided to institute a new weekly feature where I recap the greatest tv show of all time 30 Rock. First of all for those of you poor souls that are missing out, you can watch some of the full episodes on the interweb. That is right you can surf the tubes and find the greatest show on television.

I have to worry about what I say for worry that the Black Crusaders will get me. Is it just me or does Cleveland look really attractive, but I will get to that later.

Instead of going a scene by scene recap I am just going to mention some of the highlights. First the Floydster is up for a big promotion thanks to a little help from Jack. Unfortunately the person he is going up against for the promotion is an black dude in a wheelchair. Needless to say he did not get the job. This prompted him to consider a move back to his hometown of Cleveland. Now I know you are thinking "Cleveland? I would love to flee to the Cleve." and that is exactly what you should think. I mean lunch with Little Richard and getting to pet a real police horse? Could it get any better?

Unfortunately, the Black Crusaders are out to get Tracey because they think his movie about Thomas Jefferson might damage the reputation of black people. That damn Oprah and believe me you do not want to mess with Al Roker.

During this Liz Lemon also discovers Jack's hollow boned finance may not exactly be who she seems to be and is only after Jack for his gold card (of course made with real gold) which may explain why she was ok with him falling asleep during sex.

Overall I would say it was a really good episode, but not the best ever. It lost some major points for not having near enough Kenneth and having no resolution at the end of the episode. On the good news side 30 Rock was picked up for a second season so that is good news.

Chumps

If you have stumbled across this blog then you are either friends and family of the super awesome Tracey and Ben or you are so bored at work that you have resorted to trolling for random blogs. Either way brace yourself for endless blogs about our obsession with all things Disney, tv shows like the Office, 30 Rock and Lost, and Ben's feeble attempts at being funny. On a related note, is there a better show out there than 30 Rock? Kenneth has to be one of the creepiest/best characters ever created. He really makes me want to get someone in my posse to harmonize with, or create the next great game show. Anyway, we hope you enjoy this blog better than a poke in the eye and if you were accidentally stumbled across us when looking for a blog about kittens, this will point you in the right direction
