To evade commercials, I purchased 30 rock on DVD. I love this freaking show so much that I would consider dedicating an entire blog to it. I could maybe do a love poem to each character, one per day. Alternatively, I could list quotes I love from each character. I can't really pick a favorite character because I love them so but, currently, it's a toss-up between Kenneth and Tracy. I know that's cliche. Those are probably everyone's favorites. Plus, I really do love them all. Anyway, I'm going to start my ode to 30 rock with a few quotes I've picked up.
The show had me totally addicted as soon as Tracy Jordan did a Bill Cosby impersonation wherein he said, with no inflection, "I'm Bill Cosby. Jell-o. Sweaters."
I think that what Kenneth has just said in this photo is something like, "I'll never finish this bikini by Nana's birthday." That's not a direct quote. On the other hand, I looked up this quote by Tracy: "stop eatin' people's old french fries, pigeon. have some self respect. don't you know you can fly?"
Anyway, those are softballs. Kenneth and Tracy constantly say hillarious stuff. Jack Donaghy is always funny (e.g., in conjunction with Tracy, the mind grapes thing is hillarious) but gets funnier with time.
For example, in season 2, Jack orders a "white rum with diet coke and a twist of lime"...the bar tender says, "here's your Nancy Drew," and Jack says: "for men it's called a Hardy Boy."
Phew, that's all I have for now...there may be more later.

Have you gotten to season 3 yet? There's a good quote about grad students: "We're bad people, but at least we're not the worst kind of people. Grad students. Grad students are the worst kind of people." It's out of nowhere, and that makes it hilarious.
I would also love to write love poems with you. Can I come over and watch 30 Rock with you sometime?
