Not just lines. The jokes are packed in like layer cake. Like at the start of this scene Jenna talks about stuffing her face as she eats an ice cube, lol!
She wasn't that great on this show in comparison to Alec, Tina and Tracey. It's hard to stand out when you look like you're trying too hard with a naturally talented cast.
kcbh24 Really? Baldwin basically played his character from Glengarry Glen Ross sales speech and his brother played his look alike sooo...not saying Baldwin did not deserve his...Jane Krakowski however definitely deserved her own!
It's insane how underrated this show is.. one hilarious perfectly written and performed line right after the other, I don't think there's another show that reached that greatness
I love the over the top way she flourishes her hands before turning on the lights to attack Jenna. Like a villain's assistant in a gothic horror story.
@Spermwhale1000 Pfffft, 30 Rock was ABOUT SOMETHING. I'm not so sure Seinfeld would have done as well without the laugh tracks. I do still enjoy watching it, though.
I just noticed that as Liz walks up to accept her award, the music plays a really slow, dramatic version of Jenna's "Secret Plan" song. This show was brilliant.
Did you know Tina Fey once considered to have a crossover episode with Parks & Rec? It was supposed to happen on that episode where Jack asked Liz to find another cast that would be relatable to American masses. So Liz and Pete would go to Indiana to scout for a new cast. That's where they'll end up in Pawnee.
I finally started watching 30 Rock about a month ago, and I gotta say, I've watched some very heavy hitter comedy shows like It's Always Sunny, The Office, Peep Show, Archer, Reno 911, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Seinfeld, etc, and they were all amazing, but I have NEVER had more side splitting, laughing uncontrollably moments from any show I've ever watched. And it's not even close! It's almost unbelievable how funny this show is! This is easily the greatest comedy TV show ever created, and I genuinely mean that.
Couldn't help but notice that Arrested Development wasn't on your list. For my money, 30 Rock and the original three seasons of Arrested Development are about as good as comedy writing gets
Liz: "Fire up the Lekos and the Klieg" *Lightsmith turns on two sets of Lekos* Love this show. If they could rig up a Klieg that would have been awesome lol
I’m going to be _extremely_ pedantic and mention that while the brand term ‘Klieg’ is currently used to refer to a carbon-arc lamp, it used to be a term for both the carbon-arc film light _and_ the ER spotlight produced by the Kliegl brothers company, the latter of which is now known only as a Lekolite; so the technician was technically turning on both a Leko and a Klieg. I apologize profusely for my pedantry.
@@dragonslave93 I just found it. For some reason, I had a dumb moment and didn't even think to search. Like that time Mickey Rourke forgot to search for me after he put me in the trunk of a taxi.
@@_MSD75_ I see what you did there. Reminds me of when i saw what Mickey Rourke did to those strippers in D.C and he trapped me beneath the Washington Monument
Every 30 Rock clip comments section: "Wow, it's sooooo well written" I mean, they're not wrong. I think I just watch too many clips lol. Praise where praise is due n' stuff, just seen this comment so many times that I'm over it.
‘You’re not the center of the universe, Jenna!’
‘I am TOO! I’m the MOON!!!’
That line is a hard one to pull off. But Ms. Krakowski does a phenomenal job! It's so absurd and yet she says it with such sincerity. Lol
I’m a cancer so I felt this line in my soul
That’s the kind of knowledge a Florida boat school education will get you.
@@brianwarner2171 even if it sank while you were learning British accents?
"Secret plan, revenge on my mind.....secret PLAAAAN!" Classic
Pumpkin spice please 😊
Michael Badger “Secret Plaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnn”
Need more friends who get the reference when I sing it randomly at any time of the day
“My whole life is thunder.” Is something I need to work into my vocabulary more often
I wish I was your friend so I can respond with "sure" everytime.
Yoooo said almost those exact words when I heard it!
@@DigiDestined55X I stopped reading after "I wish I was your friend"
Amen. I want a shirt that says that.
It's good to have goals in life.
The moment when Jenna turned into an old lady is a stroke of comedy genius. 😂
Like when Kenneth turns into a muppet
The light of justice shall reveal the true face of evil!
I find myself singing “Secret Plan” FAR too often.
That's not possible...far too often i mean..
OMG me too! And I forget where I heard it from and convince myself that it's a disney villains song..... Jenna Krakowski for the next disney villain!
I was going to like this comment then I realized it was last on 666 which was just perfect so i left it
Literally every line on this show is gold
I. L. There’s so many jokes per minute that you find yourself missing the next one because you’re still laughing at the last one.
@Spermwhale1000 That's seven seconds!
Someone once said that's why it's great to watch with closed captioning. A lot of the brilliance can be captured! My favorite live action comedy show.
@Spermwhale1000 Probably
Not just lines. The jokes are packed in like layer cake. Like at the start of this scene Jenna talks about stuffing her face as she eats an ice cube, lol!
Jokes on you! That wasn’t a commercial, I don’t know what that was! Delivery on that line was perfection 🤣
Yeah that one really stood out, so good
UNfriendly reminder that Jane Krakowski never won an Emmy for this show
She should of won before for stealing the show in Ally McBeal but your point still stands.
It’s a DISGRACE she never won an wmmy
She wasn't that great on this show in comparison to Alec, Tina and Tracey. It's hard to stand out when you look like you're trying too hard with a naturally talented cast.

'Oh Liz, you had me at Hayden Panettieres dead'
It's insane how underrated this show is.. one hilarious perfectly written and performed line right after the other, I don't think there's another show that reached that greatness
join the FB group💚
30 Rock won a lot of awards during its prime so I don't think it's underrated at all.
Futurama is the only one.
The early seasons of Community and Happy Endings got close. Those two shows had great writing.
Curb your enthousiasm, community, its always sunny in philadelphia, veep, sillicon valley. You just dont watch enough shows
"You had me at Hayden Panettiere is dead" LMAO! She's the worst, I love her!
"So, there'll be CAM-ER-AS?" 😂
I've watched this scene so many times and only just noticed that the instrumental at 3:07 is a reprise of "Secret Plan"
“Turning bags of sour patch kids inside out to lick them clean”
“I got my moneys worth”
🤣😂🤣
Is anyone else obsessed with the way that Jane Krakowski says ‘cameras’?!
She does speak very Natu Ur Al Ly.
Lol to Jenna's face with all those lighting. 😂😂
I love how according to 30 Rock all lightsmiths are stereotypically cool-uncool in a lesbian way
I love the over the top way she flourishes her hands before turning on the lights to attack Jenna. Like a villain's assistant in a gothic horror story.
I have met so many lightsmiths just like this tho lol
Have you never worked in theatre before?
30 Rock is hands down the funniest show I’ve ever watched.
@Spermwhale1000 Pfffft, 30 Rock was ABOUT SOMETHING.
I'm not so sure Seinfeld would have done as well without the laugh tracks. I do still enjoy watching it, though.
"My whole life is thunder!"
The two things I find most attractive about Jenna are her unflinching confidence and dramatic behavior.
Brilliant lighting, love the Quasimodo exit.
@mark bushnell It was Quasimodo
'I miss Gary so much I put a sweater on a body pillow....AAAAHHH....I took it for a canoe ride!'
canoe ride lmao
I love all the women suggesting ways to fix the technical difficulty
Notice they never got it to work.
😂😂😂😂😂
@@JohnSmith-mk1rj BECAUSE SHE DIDNT BLOW ON THE DISK COMPONENT!!!!!
If they have a lighting coordinator, why wouldn’t they have someone working the video too?
Never underestimate the importance of the lighting people, or their solidarity with one another
That lightsmith girl really nails her character
+
“Since I’m not getting married today I might as well stuff my face”
Ahh, a quote for daily use
And she is stuffing her face with ice cubes, LOL!
My whole life is Thunder!!!
Michael Eyob “Sure.”
That line is pure genius.
Next you'll tell me Mickey Rourke catapaulted you into the Hollywood sign.
I sing "Secret Plan" whenever someone cuts me off.
This made me laugh out loud for real
The writing was so good, at least i can watch old episodes whenever i want
Secret plan, revenge on my mind. Secret plaaaaaan!
I just noticed that as Liz walks up to accept her award, the music plays a really slow, dramatic version of Jenna's "Secret Plan" song. This show was brilliant.
"my whole life is thunder" is literally my answer to everything
OMG when the video broke and everyone made suggestions...
3:20 that is the cutest little smile I have ever seen!
3:40
Aw...
They are so meant for each other
So many strong lines
I miss this show so much! It was brilliant and so underrated. Parks and Rec as well. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler truly are amazing ❤️
Spermwhale1000 you need to watch it! If you loved 30 Rock, you’re gonna love Parks and Rec
Mossimo Tiberi haha I didn’t even notice that
Did you know Tina Fey once considered to have a crossover episode with Parks & Rec? It was supposed to happen on that episode where Jack asked Liz to find another cast that would be relatable to American masses. So Liz and Pete would go to Indiana to scout for a new cast. That's where they'll end up in Pawnee.
Doll Face that would’ve been awesome
Damnn amen tina fey and amy Poehler were truly the best part of Snl and parks and rec + 30 rock are by far the funniest tv shows
so many cameos in one scene!
Secret Plan sounds like it'd be a good Bond song. lol

This show was simply iNsAnE! 🤣
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate Andrea Martin's part in this video.
❤🇨🇦
"I took it for a canoe ride!" 🤣
3:58 "I miss Gary so much. I put a sweater on a body pillow! _AEUGH!_
"So *I am* a lesbian..."
God I miss Gary so much! I put a sweater on a body pillow ahhhhhhh I took it for a canoe ride!
"I'm going steady, and we french."
"So?"
"Well, daddy says I'm the best at it."
@Ulysses432 that was her one line in National Lampoon's Vacation
😆 probably one of their best scenes!
I don’t know about you guys, but I love the light smith.
Oh I just noticed Wendy Williams
yah the video was ruined for me too.
@@JFizDaWiz lol
Spermwhale1000 her eyes are on her face.
How did you not notice him?
and her line was so out of character for her lmao
The world needs more Andrea Martin!! 💜
Easily the best comedy
I watch re-runs of this rather current sitcoms. Her comedy is so layered.
Also, not having a laugh track is a huge difference.
The center of the universe. The moon. LOL
This is much more funny than I remember it being
Liz: "Fire up the Lekos and the Klieg"
*Lightsmith turns on two sets of Lekos*
Love this show. If they could rig up a Klieg that would have been awesome lol

I love that Wendy Williams is in this.
It’s so weird how Liz walks backwards out of that room near the start, like it’s in reverse
your right!!!! it is bizzare
Sue Simmons throwing deep shade - my life is complete!
1:12 “secret plan” anyone else wanna hear a full version of this song?
Man this show was so good
"You're not the centre of the universe, Jenna."
"Yes I am! I'm the moon!"
Best sitcom ever
So this is what that secret plan song is from. Lee dawson has been putting that in his RuPaul videos
Secret........PLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!
A reminder to never anger those who lurk within the shadows!
horrorvictim “Smugness is not a good quality”

What brings a Mummer. Hahah
Surely there's a montage of Jenna's references to Micky Rourke?
Woowoo there is

Lol y'all!
Remembers a cab driver in an old Seinfeld episode stating that "Revenge Is Good"....this brought back warm feelings! Cheers Gang
Hey, the MC is Andrea Martin from SCTV!
That secret plan song makes soooo much sense now lol
When Jenna recoils from touching the light, I lose it every time 03:44
And to think I forgot how completely crazy the show was!
Me too. I haven't seen it in years. Netflix doesn't have it anymore. Sigh.
Jenna was the best character 😂
It was wise of Jenna to befriend the lightsman, but foolish to make her angry.
not wendy williams in the audience lmfao
her pronunciation of "cameras"
Seeeeecret PLAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!
Sue Simmons! I’m dyin’!
Classic writing!
God this show was good. Non-stop rapid-fire comedy gold.
3:50 waaaaiitt is that Wendy!? I watched this like 10 years ago, I didn't know her back then
Omg 😂 the last part lol
Lol “80 under 80” 😂😂😂
I'm the MOON! 🤣
I miss this show.
Don't look at meeeeeee....
Lmfao 😭😭😭
I wonder what the description for old Jenna was in the script 🤣😂🤣
Brave of Jane Krakowski to let us all know what she really looks like under supermarket lighting.
Every 30 Rock clip comments section: "Wow, it's sooooo well written"
I mean, they're not wrong. I think I just watch too many clips lol. Praise where praise is due n' stuff, just seen this comment so many times that I'm over it.
Everyone should sing secret plan at least once a year
RIP Gary.
2019 Wendy is really showing us that she's not defined by her man.....you go girl!!!!
Wendy Williams
Lol this is from like 7 years ago
Wendy Williams is homophobic garbage.
4:12 M'Lady
One of my most favorite Jenna clips.. And the nth reminder that she never won an award for this show 😢
"i got my money's worth!" 😄😆
“My Whole LIFE has THUNDER”
Little boy 😂😂😂
I didn’t even remember this part
Sucks to be the old lady at the end who’s supposed to be ugly Jenna.😬🤣
Hahaha. Am sure the character for the auditions was named "Middle Aged Woman Scared of Bright Lights"
I fucking love this show I swear lol
She's THE MOON!
