30 Rock - What's the Obsession ?

Everyone that acts on it and the show itself wins year after year. I thought the Tina Fey Years were the worst for SNL.
It doesn't look the least bit interesting ... the couple times I found myself turning the channels and stopping to see how it was ... I didn't like it ..

Does anybody actually watch this show?

i hear that it gets very low viewership ... but they keep it on the air.

It just won like all the golden globes it was up for... I don't get it ?

I realize that may not be a particularly impressive achievement considering 99% of sitcoms blow ass to begin with, but in this case I really find it to be clever and unique. I can understand why not everyone would enjoy it though.; ▶ Reply to This

I've just heard it in passing on a News Show on Television ... but I have heard it on more than One Occasion. I'm not trying to talk shit about the show ... I just wanted to hear more about it ... Because I thought on SNL Tina Fey was one of the most unfunny people on earth and it surprising that a show written by her would be this good.; ▶ Reply to This

SNL is the Bar for Fey because as far as I know that is all her previous work.; ▶ Reply to This

Damn, I hate time zones. The Golden Globes take place here on the West Coast and are shown live on the East Coast - but not on the West Coast! It's 7.40 pm right now and they're showing the Red Carpet walk and the show itself starts in 20 minutes... I know you didn't want to spoil anything, jeldobar...

Why not do the thing live here on the West Coast as well? It's lame to delay the broadcast, IMO.; ▶ Reply to This
