Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it. Remember Arrested Development? Smartest, funniest show on television. A critics' darling. An Emmy-winner for Best Comedy Series. But no one watched, and it was cancelled. Will history repeat itself with 30 Rock? It's the smartest, funniest show on television. A critics' darling. An Emmy-winner for Best Comedy Series. And it finished its inaugural season in 137th place! Hopefully, people will discover all that they missed with this Season 1 set and 30 Rock will, better late than never, find the audience it so richly deserves. A behind-the-scenes workplace comedy in the grand tradition of The Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Dick Van Dyke Show, 30 Rock stars comedy geek goddess Tina Fey as Liz Lemmon, who juggles her hapless personal life with her chaotic career as the producer and head writer of an SNL-ish sketch comedy show. She has a new boss, cunning and ruthless GE executive Jack Donaghy (Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Award-winner Alec Baldwin), who insists on being her mentor, and a new star, medicated, loose-cannon comedian Tracy Jordan (Tracy Morgan), who steals the spotlight from the show's flighty star, Jenna Maroney (Jane Krakowski). Briskly paced and perfectly cast, 30 Rock rewards viewers with brilliant dialogue (when Liz asks Jack why he is dressed in a tuxedo with no formal event to attend, he coolly responds, "It's after six; what am I, a farmer?") and fresh characters you haven't seen on a hundred other sitcoms. Jack McBrayer is the series' scene-stealing breakout star as NBC page Kenneth, a sweet and innocent "rube." The ensemble's seemingly spontaneous byplay invites repeat viewings to catch jokes and sly bits of business you might have missed (in "Tracy Does Conan," listen for the initial confusion over how to pronounce Tracy's less-than-ethical physician, Dr. Spaceman, or, in "The Hair and the Head," watch for the Katie Couric slur on the wall of what is purported to be NBC anchor Brian Williams' trashed office). In a season full of gems (including "Black Tie," featuring Paul Reubens as severely inbred royalty), there are only a couple of comparative clunkers, but the pleasure of this ensemble's company more than compensates. 30 Rock is highly recommended for people like Kenneth who just love television so much. And by the hammer of Thor, watch season 2! --Donald Liebenson

 Brilliant! January 6, 2009
Mary (Canada)
This tv show is one of the best i've seen. It's really funny, the episodes are short and it's really addictive. Tina Fey is great!

30 Rock - Season 1
This is good. This is not my favorite season. The show gets better each season. I think that's only because they have more history with characters and story lines to work with.
One of the Greatest Comedies Ever December 13, 2008
E. Crites (Columbus, OH United States)
Not kidding- this show is classic. It's right up there with Arrested Development, Seinfeld, the Office, all the classics. The writing is brilliant, and all of the parts are cast perfectly. If you've been wanting to get into the show this is the best way to do it- just watch it straight through. It is worth noting however, that the first episode is not that great. Watch a few and you'll no doubt get what all the hype's about. If you've enjoyed comedies like Arrested Development, The Office, or Extras, give this one a shot.
 Light and enjoyable November 30, 2008
Elias Aractingi
Nice sitcom. Funny in an elegant way. My daughter, who is 17, found it outright hilarious. Perfect for the hard-core Obama crowd
