30 Rock is a Christmas movie
30 Rock slaps I’m sorry but it is what it is
I don’t have a video of it but one of my favorite 30 Rock jokes is the Old Spanish cocktail that was then referenced on Mad Men like over a year later. TV is great!
30 Rock is a fine show, good for some laughs a few times an episode
Before there was Kabletown, Kidney Now!, or even MILF Island, 30 Rock delivered the perfect 10 sec. joke at the start of its second season: Tracy Jordan takes a mental walk down memory lane about a certain novelty party song that earned him a gold record. https://t.co/ixsJ3WK0lO
Rewatching 30 Rock after seeing quotes on my timeline for the last few days. There really are like 3-4 great jokes an episode that I either didn't notice or completely forgot about.
30 Rock was a funny enough show, but these clips make it seem way funnier than it was in part because television comedy is essentially dead
This is the best 30 Rock joke. https://t.co/FFzCD6uXz4
i think about every 30 rock joke every second of every day
I love that everyone is talking about 30 Rock actually because it is the show that made me want to start writing tv. I wrote a spec of it years ago for fun and it’s linked on my website. Free to read for a quick 22 minutes if you’re bored xo
Almost my entire feed is 30 Rock right now and I love it
Before 30 Rock day is over I have to share the greatest sitcom joke of all time https://t.co/aVBCmylos6
My favorite 30 Rock joke is when Jack is watching a black and white doc on a German channel and it's like "industry castrates art. The only honesty is in suicide" and he goes "I can't watch anymore of these German sitcoms" https://t.co/19ILXxGpQ0
My favorite 30 Rock line is just Tracy saying “Karl Robe.”
One of my all time favorite 30 Rock jokes https://t.co/iZsIQ3Wjg5
this just in: white people like 30 Rock.
I truly love whenever there is 30 Rock discourse bc it always ends with ppl sharing their favorite 30 Rock lines and I will sit and read every single one bc literally every single one is gold

30 Rock is fundamentally a show about seeing time slip away from you as you try to figure everything out. It's a funny show but I do think it's genuinely moving and only gets better the older you get
My favorite 30 Rock joke changes hourly but right now it’s when injured Elaine Stritch is ringing a bell and Jack rushes in and says “what is it mother??” and she goes “I need my other bell.”
Some discourse going on about 30 Rock vs. The Office and Parks and Rec. I enjoy all three shows but don’t get the take that 30 Rock isn’t a nice comfort watch. Joke dense show, many of them clever, but it’s also full of dumb jokes and it’s generally pleasant despite the cynicism
