I've heard of Great News but haven't watched it beyond the first episode or two. Wasn't paying enough attention to it to really get drawn in. It's still on my watch list though.
Overbearing parent characters can really go either way. In general, though, I agree with you. I feel like with Colleen, though, they just let Elaine Stritch do Elaine Stritch things, and I am here for it.
No, not in that order.
So your favorite character is Hazel?
I always liked Hazel since she was like Kenneth's "Bad Janet", but I did understand why some fans...weren't fans.
Colleen is definitely in my top three favorites, though.
Excellent analysis. Going to feature this in the community for a while.
Even though I disagree about the second Q of J being the worst. That is one of my personal favorites.
for now.
It's ideas like that that make me sad I never learned how to follow a pattern and sew.
I'm actually planning on doing a series of "Promotional consideration" posts using fake products from the show. Please feel free to join in :)
Video link to the song since I haven't seen UKS in forever and forgot that song existed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6yttOfIvOw
I also noticed for the first time the label says "White Throwing Wine"
I haven't watched SNL in forever, but I never cared for Fallon when he was doing the skits. Couldn't put my finger on why at the time but that compilation pretty much sums it up. I thought he did okay with Weekend Update but Fey probably did a lot of heavy lifting there.

> During his tenure with "Saturday Night Live," Tracy Morgan also took issue with some chronic behavior from fellow cast member JImmy Fallon.
> In an interview with Penthouse, Morgan admitted that he really disliked Fallon's habit of cracking up during sketches, getting laughs by breaking character. According to Morgan, he wasn't thrilled with Fallon's "laughing and all that dumb [bleep] he used to do — he wouldn't mess with me because I didn't [bleep]ing play that s***," Morgan said, as reported by Page Six. "That's taking all the attention off of everybody else and putting it on you, like, 'Oh, look at me, I'm the cute one.'" Morgan, in fact, gave Fallon a stern warning — that he apparently heeded. "I told him not to do that s*** in my sketches, so he never did," Morgan added.
> Morgan got revenge with the help of fellow "SNL" alum Tina Fey when they appeared together in the NBC sitcom "30 Rock." In an episode, Morgan's character, Tracy Jordan, mimics Fallon's sketch-derailing breakdowns when his character begins doing the same thing, purposely creating live-TV mishaps in order to get cheap laughs in the show-within-the-show's sketches
Mod Note:
My fellow dummies:
Please do not get into political shouting / discussions for IRL politics here. Politics referenced within the show are perfectly fine. Real world politics should be left at the door. OP this post is completely fine in case you're wondering :)
I'm not going to remove any of the existing comments, but a new community rule has just been added to this effect - rules are like warning labels; we add new ones as the need arises.
I don't like it I love it. I usually use Yarn which has a pretty big collection of 30 Rock quotes as gifs but only ones with dialog.
The cropping on this gif is making me irrationally angry.
TBH, I didn't get it but was too busy that day to ask for an explainer. You post enough here that I was positive it was just me not getting the reference. 😂
Lol, no. Just the Krang REDACTED one (that and the cowabunga one are clearly jokes)
The Krang REDACTED comment on this post just made me realize that I never actually defined any rules for the community. The instance rules cover all the civility, spam, porn, bots, etc bases so I just added a couple to set the expectations.

I'm sure the shelter pups would love the field trip and attention as well. Win/win

I don't even have a cat. The neighbor's cat likes me, though, and brings me all kinds of "presents". 😆

I don't know why it's so sped up lol.
Edit: Re-created it so it doesn't look like 30 Rock's Salute to Benny Hill.
Trying out a format I see in !thesimpsons@lemmy.world
1 Crisspoint for the joke or scene, 2 Crisspoints for the episode / main plot.
All points are made up and don't matter.
Saw this on /c/dundermifflin@lemm.ee and figured it would be fun to do one for 30 Rock.
Seating Options / Alt Text:
- Between Liz and her doppelgänger friend that complains just as much
- Next to Frank and a now-empty sun tea jar
- Between Hank and Jack
- Between Devon Banks and Kenneth
- In the back next to Vlem
- Next to Tracy and Angie
- Between Jenna and Verna (who is flirting with Paul dressed as Jenna)
- Next to Colleen and Jonathan
- Next to Lutz
I wanted to make one of the options between Grizz and DotCom, but I figured that was too much of an Airplane! joke. Also, the pharmacy was out of the pills that make you see Oprah, so no sleeping through it.
