A community for the fans and critics of the show 30 Rock.

Discussion of the show, pictures from the show and anything else 30 Rock related.

Rules:

  1. All DubVee instance rules apply. See the sidebar at https://dubvee.org/. Those are pretty comprehensive, so we don't really need to add much to those.
  2. No politics outside of what's referenced on the show. Let's leave that drama elsewhere since there's plenty of it.
  3. All posts must be 30 Rock related or adjacent. You dummies are awesome, so I don't think I've ever had to mod any posts for this, but codifying it for good measure.
  4. Less a rule and more of a guideline, but please try to provide alt text if your instance + client combination support it. If not, then please try to make an effort to provide a description of any image posts in the post body. Let's be an a11y when we can :)
  5. Don't make fun of people for misusing dated cultural references. Are we all cowabunga on this?
  6. No talking about Krang. It would be a waste of time to talk about Krang on ~~television~~ the internet.

I've heard of Great News but haven't watched it beyond the first episode or two. Wasn't paying enough attention to it to really get drawn in. It's still on my watch list though.

Overbearing parent characters can really go either way. In general, though, I agree with you. I feel like with Colleen, though, they just let Elaine Stritch do Elaine Stritch things, and I am here for it.

Great news was…bad. In the first, like, four episodes, anyway. It just felt like lowest common denominator scop.

For what it's worth: it doesn't get any better/worse after that.

It also did not help that half of Colleen's lines were just saying something offensive for laughs
