Just discovered this show in 2015


Liz Lemon and I are soul sisters and I am looking forward to watching this show!
As a fellow nerd who loves good writing and witty dialogue, I can't believe I didn't pay attention to this show the first time around.

Granted, that happened to me with Seinfeld, which I also did not get into until WAY after the fact. I still mourn the loss of Frasier which had very smart writing and great physical timing from David Hyde Pierce and Kelsey Grammar.

Just wanted to share my new fandom. Thank you

Welcome to the club! I'd love to watch 30 Rock for the first time again.

I did the same thing before the last season of Parks and Recreation. That's another great show too if you haven't seen it yet.

Yeah, you are going to mourn when you reach the end of the series because no show since has matched the sophisticated wit of 30 Rock. Even The Unbreakable Kimmie Schmidt, which of course is also written by Fey & Carlock, just isn't as funny as 30 Rock was.

Even if you have seen the show, it is entirely re-watchable multiple times. Each episode has so many packed in jokes, you can catch new ones you missed the first or even 4th times around. It still happens to me and makes me grin each time I find a fresh joke.

Me too, love it!

You won't be disappointed. Liz Lemon and I are also soul sisters:)

Tina is honestly one of the funniest people out there & her writing shows that, in my opinion. She has a great sense of humor without being mean or overly outrageous.. Make sure you also check out Kimmy Schmidt after 30 Rock, which features a lot of the original 30 Rock cast. Another small gem
