    I think all the time about how brilliant a premise it is that the comedy within the show on 30 Rock is SO BAD on purpose. And Alan's great reporting here also gets at how important it is to have performers who are open to looking silly instead of insistent on looking cool!

    I am watching “30 Rock” and it’s quite funny but holy fuck what was in the water in comedy writer rooms that made every third episode of every single 2000-2015 comedy show have a trans joke where the punchline is “the concept of trans women”

    30 Rock did 20+ episodes a year and has been beloved for decades. There are more jokes in individual episodes of this show than there are in full SEASONS of some comedies now. Some of that is the brilliance of the people involved! But there's also so much less opportunity for shows to do this now!

    I don’t really go in for generational arguments, but I think you can make a case for 30 Rock as the ultimate Gen X show: a portrait of try-hard liberals, unfettered capitalists, and straight-up narcissists trying to live meaningful lives within the annihilating vortex of corporate reality

    Love seeing all the 30 Rock anniversary tributes. No show has better clip montages. But NEVER FORGET how it was supposed to fail to a Sorkin-written, prestige version of the same "behind the scenes of a sketch show" premise - the dismal, bloviated Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. Rare win for society.
