    Frank turning into Liz was phenomenal, and excuses all of Frank's lame jokes in the past. But seriously, end Kenneth. Please. It'd be doing us all a favor at this point.

    I'm getting awfully tired of this show. Even Franco's appearance was meh.
    Quote Quoting Donald Glover
    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    Franco may have been meh, but Komiko may be my new favorite character. I would watch an all-pillow spin-off.



    In all seriousness, though, I might be kinda over 30 Rock.

    It's kinda like The Simpsons now.

    Amiable characters but terrible storylines, chuckles here and there, side character highlights, one big laugh, ending with an overall feeling of "Why did I watch that instead of putting in a movie, or scrubbing the kitchen floor?"

    It's not as good as it was, but in all honesty I'm not seeing this huge drop at all.

    Well, I don't think The Simpsons went through a huge drop either, as its reputation often suggests. It's no longer good, but it's seldom completely terrible save for the occasional baffling episodes. It's more the fact that it's gotten stale and routine, which is what I think 30 Rock is becoming. Seriously, nothing ever really happens.

    I think you're being a tad harsh. There are still some excellent moments on the show, and while it isn't what it once was, and sure, there are times where I feel like I would have been better off watching something else, to say it's more tedious that scrubbing your kitchen floor is absurd. I understand you were making a joke, but I think the show deserves better than that for all the laughs it's brought to the table, both in the past and, though much more sparingly, in the here and now.

    I actually was supposed to clean my kitchen floor last night, and didn't because of it.

    It's still an amusing show, but I'm (frankly) watching too many shows. I may need to reset my standards a bit.

    Can't think of a show that's funnier on TV right now. So I'll keep on watching.

    Then you aren't watching Modern Family, which is tragic.

    Laughs per minute, I'd probably rank Better Off Ted the highest right now. It's slight, but holy crap is it funny.

    Watch. Technically you should start from the beginning, but I don't think it would hurt too much to watch a random episode and get a feel for the comedy. I look forward to this show more than any other comedy I'm recording right now.

    Definitely disagree there. Can't really watch that or Parks & Recreation.

    The James Franco episode is my favorite episode of 30 Rock ever. Great from start to finish.

    I'd say Better Off Ted and 30 Rock are neck and neck for me for funniest show on television. I'll put Parks and Recreation at a close third. I watched two ep's of Modern Family and three or four of Community and that was all I needed of those.
    TV Recently Finished:
    Catastrophe: Season 1 (2015) A
    Rectify: Season 3 (2015) A-
    Bojack Horseman: Season 2 (2015) A
    True Detective: Season 2 (2015) A-
    Wayward Pines: Season 1 (2015) B

    Currently Playing: Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise (replay) (XB1) / Contradiction (PC)
    Recently Finished: Everybody's Gone to the Rapture (PS4) A+ / Life is Strange: Ep 4 (PS4) A / Bastion (replay) (PS4) B+

    Yeah, the Franco episode was hilarious. The one after that, not so much.
    Wishful thinking, perhaps; but that is just another possible definition of the featherless biped.

    Agreed. Although I liked the doorbell/lightbulb gag, when Alec Baldwin got an idea.
