30 Rock – “Dealbreakers Talk Show #0001″

“Dealbreakers Talk Show #0001″ December 3rd, 2009 After writing rather lengthy analysis of the other three NBC comedies, all of which tapped into the emotional recesses of their characters in uncomfortable or telling fashions, it’s refreshing to get to 30 … Continue reading

“Sun Tea” November 19th, 2009 This is “Green Week” on NBC, which means that every show has some sort of environmental sustainability storyline in it. And while the shows did similar episodes a few seasons ago (The Office did its … Continue reading

30 Rock – “Audition Day”

“Audition Day” November 5th, 2009 I think that 30 Rock would be far funnier if it wasn’t so annoying. This likely seems like a derogatory statement, but it’s really not: I thought “Audition Day” was the most enjoyable episode of … Continue reading
