Halfway thru the season, I love it. Kemper is super hot/cute to me
Mar 09th 2015

In real life she's like 21. I think that's her trying to look teenage-y.

I LOVE Tina, but I gotta agree.
Mar 09th 2015

Yup. I want to like her more but... yeah.
Jan 11th 2016

To be fair: Specific to 30 Rock EVERYONE was a weirdo.
Mar 09th 2015
33
      The longest running joke on 30 Rock was the idea of two big black guys
Mar 09th 2015
35
      When you put it like that......
Mar 09th 2015

Mar 09th 2015

There's a big diff between their being 2 diff Latinas as maids...

Mar 09th 2015

I heard it described as "30 Rock" meets "Elf"

The first episode was cringeworthy, IMO.
Mar 11th 2015
66
worth riding it out just to see Mad Man ham it up the final episodes.
Mar 11th 2015

Rev. Wayne is the funniest/weirdest character in the show!

Seems like Netflix is a wierd choice of venue for a show like this.
Mar 14th 2015
81
Netflix is killing it with their shows...
Mar 14th 2015
84
It was originally an NBC show, but they turned it down
Mar 14th 2015
88
      They said season two is gonna be all shower scenes.
Mar 15th 2015

Marcia Clark and Christopher Darden references
Mar 16th 2015

      Kinda bothered me and came across as low hanging fruit.
Mar 16th 2015

Of all the crazy shit they put out there, though, somehow that courtroom climax bothered me for being 'unrealistic'.

In response to Reply # 8


          

Is there a guide to "that's cooking" and "that's okay" i could look at?

Martin?
Is Black-ish?
Was hanging with Mr Cooper?
Fresh Prince?
Alfonzo on Silver Spoons?
George Jefferson?
Eddie Rochester?

I'm completely serious.

... He's not going out of his or her way to perpetuate a stereotype of any kind. In other words, think of average white dude on a tv show doing their job.

I mean, they don't go very deep or serious with it. But one stereotype explains why they act the way they do. And another someone expresses regret for playing into a stereotype.

And those were the two that bothered me the most, so I'm glad they at least acknowledged it.

i always saw that as a "big dumb bodyguard guy" subversion. tracy witnessing dotcom "becoming trigorin on the wesleyan arts main stage" is funny because he's a big bodyguard, not because he's black. do you recall any specific instances of the humor being based on them being black?

I will give you that he favorable reading is that the joke was a subversion of an image, but the guys being black is part of that image. I don't see how you seperate their race out of that image. It's like those old right gaurd commercials with charles barkely and david robinson with the same premise.

doesn't this commercial play out in the exact same way with a white althete?

i'm not trying to be obstinate here. i haven't had the same experiences with racism that you have so i'm not going to tell you how you should interpret something. it's possible that my inability to empathize is causing me to miss some of the more subtle aspects of racial image subversion

Wrong, the joke was that they were working for Tracy Jordan, who was immensely successful yet his bodyguards were smarter and morw talented than him.

Right people think this is the joke and not the difference between their appearance and what they are actually saying and doing.

well as a big black man who sports doo rags, what people expect to come out of my mouth isn't really that much of a concern. That is reflective of THEIR prejudice, not mine.

However, for Grizz and Dot.Com to be talking about screenplays and acting gigs for Shakespearean roles only for Tracy to shit on them, YES that was a consistently running joke on the show.

By your measure, as soon as they opened their mouths and were intelligent then the joke should have been over. The running gag wasn't that they were Black and Urban, yet smart nearly as it was that they were smart, talented, yet working security for the guy starring in The Chunks franchise.

After burning through the entire season over the weekend, that seems like a pretty good summary.

The premise is a bit too silly for me to stay invested for the whole ride. That and the fact I didn't laugh once during the first episode.

Not a lot of screen time, but got guffaws when she did. Especially later in the season.

In response to Reply # 59


  

          

But I'm extra sensitive about racial implications in the dramas, "based on a true story" films and the news. But the cringe factor is a big portion of NBC comedy and Tina Fey is from that writer's room. In fact, it's weird to me that they don't swear despite having no censors.

I think if anything, the show goes super hard on gay stereotypes more often than race.

nyc transplants, as on 30Rock...

I mean I have secrets that living there can hide
and attended school with visa holders who told me
long asian name meant Thailand...
and worked for natives like Lillian the landlord
who tried to get me into workplace pyramid loans
was subtly called bridge and tunnel by a marketing coworker
who of course moved to CT when school zoning changed

occasionally I would return home to a place that still felt the the 90s
many remarking on how the Jewish are different up there

make it here make it anywhere post tie-in...

sadly fun show

all that race shit that people get upset over? i didnt feel it. this is not a case of casual racism or hipster racism or liberal racism. race is something that we all think about and obsess over and the show is a reflection on our weird hang up about race

this was a super funny, super cutesy show. Of all the real fucked up shit on tv that is actually FOR REALLY REAL racist, sexist, homophonic this shit barely on the radar

I think I would be more offended if I was from Indiana than anything.

They poke fun at a lot of different stereotypes and it doesn't seem to single anyone out. Maybe having two Latina maids is unnecessary but they aren't particularly negative portrayals; Donna Maria has been consistently funny.

I had my doubt that Ellie Kemper could carry a series but she does so with aplomb.

It's got 30 rock like jokes per minute.

It's doing interesting things with Class jokes.

Titus has grown on me. I just want him to win at this point.

The last thing they need to fix is stop having the asian dude using that thick heavy accent.

The plastic surgeon Martin Short played was based on a real guy.

They bullied him and he hung himself. Smh

The general consensus of interviews was that he was depressed anyway but the show didn't help.

Unlike Marcia Clark or Warren jeffs, I don't think most people knew there was a real life equivalent, so it's less of a everybody joke and more inside/mean.

taking responsibility and suffer the moral consequences (i.e, feel bad about it).

What a comedian decides to make fun of is a personal decision and has moral consequences and they should weigh that out before deciding to make fun of something.

I don't believe there is a blanket "it's just comedy so I am absolved of feeling bad about my work" exception.

It was true when we made fun of people at school. It is still true for a comedian as an adult.

Let's not act like whenever anyone kills themselves in response to being made fun or bullied it's a normal reaction, but when it happens it is a normal response for people to feel bad for their role in it.

Do you think the folks responsible should feel bad for all those stories we read about teens killing themselves for being bullied or made fun of?

Whether it's normal reaction doesn't change how a person should feel for their role in it.

In response to Reply # 127


          

we shouldn't be silly children that think we're "special". Dude was in an industry that dealt purely on people's insecurities and narcissism, I'm sure there were plenty of times where he capitalized on people's lack of self esteem to make a bunch of money. And you can't handle someone spoofing you??? Get over yourself. This is an example of the comedic concept of punching up. It's unfortunate that he reacted that way but that's on him, not them.

With being ridiculed indefinitely on a TV series
Get some perspective
They were already dealing with what was clearly a fragile ego
That has little to do with being an adult at that point

132. "You are basically saying "A person should be normal""
In response to Reply # 129


  

          

Which I guess makes sense but sometimes people aren't normal. The kids who kill themselves from social media taunting? They aren't normal. Yet it happens.

In law we have the Eggshell skull theory. Google it. The basic premise is one liable for all consequences resulting from his or her tortious (usually negligent) activities leading to an injury to another person, even if the victim suffers an unusually high level of damage (e.g. due to a pre-existing vulnerability or medical condition).

Now I don't want to turn this into a legal discussion. I just want to show there is precedent for accepting the idea that sometimes people aren't normal and we can't expect them to react normally to stuff.


Now do I think art shouldn't make jokes that make fun of people? I am not saying that at all.

I am just saying their is a moral component of making art and that moral component means one should feel bad if your mocking them lead to their suicide. It ain't that hard.

I'm talking about making a parity of being kidnapped...

I don't think any of those instances are above being spoofed.

to this lady who reached out to shake my hand with her left land "you know in some countries it's considered rude to shake hands with your left hand" all jokes and laughing. It didn't occur to me that she didn't have a right hand until she held up her nub.

I felt bad about that. Does it mean I should never have made that comment or should never make it again going forward? no. Doesn't change I felt bad about how it played out in that one instance.

the deaedpan humor in this show is off the charts
like kimmy telling Zan "STEP OFF!!!"

Titus's facial exprpessions

everyone mad at how they portrayed the black dude who made up the theme song
but how many negroes in rural indiana living in a single wide with no indoor plumbing sound like Michael Eric Dyson or Brother Cornell West?

other than titus, the few newer characters were way more compelling/funny than the established ones this season.
