Maybe I’m in the minority here, but I was so unimpressed with ‘30 Rock’ that I am going to take it off the TiVo. It didn’t interest me in any way, shape or form. It is one of those shows that touts big names, but little thought into the writing. I just didn’t care for it. Then again, I don’t like the ’stupid comedy’ type shows. ‘Scrubs’ didn’t interest me when I saw the first episode (although I did watch an episode or two last season and it was OK, not as bad as some other shows, but I still have too much to watch during that time slot), I don’t like the newer SNL’s either, so that’s probably why I don’t like 30 Rock. But I really think it just bombed last night. I read all the reviews and how hilarious 30 Rock was going to be, but it just didn’t deliver.
Now, Twenty Good Years…THAT was funny! Jeffery Tambor and John Lithgow have great chemistry, and the writing was excellent, the cast was perfect, and it was just an all around good show! That one is staying on the TiVo.
So, was anyone else disappointed with 30 Rock? I did think it was very weird that NBC has two shows that are about SNL-like shows and the writers and producers of the show…very weird indeed, and they both premiered the same season….Hmmmmmmm…..
AGREE…30 Rock stinks, watched SNL last week for the first time in yeras and thought it too was a stinker…30 Rock, and thus NBC, so disappointed me I did not srtay tuned for 20 Good Years but went to the good ol History channel.
