I have always been impressed by Fey's willingness to be the bad person in a humorous situation. It's very brave to risk being disliked in the media world.
The differences (besides just tone of voice) when they showed Liz's version of reacting to Jenna's plays versus the actual reactions are telling: less applause in Liz's memory, someone else gave Jenna flowers (not Liz) & most humerously at 14:07, her date was actually just wearing a collard shirt when in Liz's imagination he was wearing a lab coat implying he was a doctor or some other high-paying medical job, when in reality he dressed like a guy who runs a bowling alley. 😂 The little details are the best!!
I just want to state for the record, this is the best comedy I’ve ever seen. I’ve watched every available episode every Christmas since 2007 (I think?), and I’ve never gotten bored of it. Arrested Development is great (okay, first 3 seasons), Larry Sanders is fantastic, but I keep coming back to 30 Rock
Right on about the first three seasons of Arrested Development. I watched all the seasons, but I only watch the first three seasons over and over again.
So quirky and clever and sometimes so real. She’s a happily married woman but has that vibe of the uncool part neurotic, part defiant past normal dating age single woman vibe down! And she is a writer! On network TV! Even Meryl Streep can’t claim that.
Liz lemon is the person you take to the bar to ward off creeps and keep you from getting your drink drugged. I feel like this is inspired by tina in real life
That part where the homeless guy throws the hot dog back at her always makes me chuckle i dunno why no one wants her hot dogs 😂 30 Rock is honestly one of the shows I’ve rewatched entirely mor than once since it last aired
11:58 Jack's pat on the shoulder made him uncomfortable because it's likely a trigger to his addiction. 😆🤣 All the little throw-aways were golden in this show.
Gosh Tina Fey was my crush growing up on SNL…I always remember why. I once saw a picture of her, Jon Stewart and Conan O Brien at a party…oh to be at that party.
I usually hate the posts that are like “this could never get made today” because they’re usually really dumb and wrong but these back door burns on Beyoncé?? That would not fly today. She’s the Queen of America.
Everyone knows Beyonce is dumb as a rock. She hasn't given a real interview since the early 2000s because she embarrassed herself with the things she said.
“I already have a drink, you think he’d buy me mozzarella sticks?” 😂
Tina Fey is the Lucille Ball of our generation. A true superstar. 30 Rock will never be bettered.
It’s brilliant.
Agreed
Humm.... that's actually accurate 🤔👏
Agreed
Quinta Brunson might get that for Gen Z.
That hot dog justice move was wholesome.
She literally just created the concept of communism
@@J.Trimboli No, she didn’t steal the hot dogs from that seller lol.

you mean liz lemon?
@@abdulmalik2388 great example, Lemon actively destroys peoples' lives throughout the show.
Agreed. Meanwhile on Parks and Rec, Leslie HAS TO ALWAYS BE the good person. You can’t laugh at her.
@@tylerbushong3452 i'm ashamed to say I've never watched a single episode of Parks and Rec. I will probably binge it soon.
But it goes to fan theory that Liz Lemon ISN'T a Nice person . Even though she THINKS she is.
I finally had the chance to start off from the very beginning of 30 Rock and I’m still gonna keep my job in 1 piece. 😁
I forgot how amazing Tina Fey looked in that evening dress. Yowza.
She’s really gorgeous
that's an interesting way to spell "every fit she appears in" 😩
“The crab is getting aroused. Shut it down!” 😂
30 Rock is and always will be a masterpiece.
“Oh! There is nothing like New York in the Spring!”
Getting shoved into a pile of trash i somehow an upgrade to what's happening in NYC these days

No mention of The Mindy Project?
Too bad we can't have the live shows anymore
I think it's been too long since Tina Fey starred in a t.v. sitcom.
She's in unbreakable kimmy schmidt and she wrote it, its like the modern 30 rock
@@aminabouba9730 not enough of her 😢
Liz lemon is the person you take to the bar to ward off creeps and keep you from getting your drink drugged. I feel like this is inspired by tina in real life
I mean they even have the same name
Love the way she throws her purse ahead of her crawling out of Jack's office.
"They got that reeeallllly bad flower smell, I kinda couldn't stop smelling them lol"
Other Liz: 👁💥👁
“Be a crab! Fight the worm!”
That part where the homeless guy throws the hot dog back at her always makes me chuckle i dunno why no one wants her hot dogs 😂 30 Rock is honestly one of the shows I’ve rewatched entirely mor than once since it last aired
Opened food is a trap. If a random person handed you a slice of pizza on the street, I'd guess you wouldn't eat it
It's Tina Fey tho
She ate that pop tart off the floor……I wouldn’t be so sure.
once I offered a whole pizza for some homeless people that was a wrong order and the homeless woman was like 'blergh, pizza? no thanks'
True Love is buying someone Mozzarella Sticks.
The good non-spongy ones
Love how Ethan looks in Liz's memory vs Jenna's memory
Thanks for pointing that out!!
30 Rock is perfection.
hahhaha her interactions with men at that club, she's so relatable LMAO ending up with the gay guys and then she was out there singing Janice Ian lol.
Don't give up ponytail. You got this...
lol, that's definitely me at every single dance class i've taken. Doing every move backwards
Tina Fey does justice to Isley Brothers song Who's That Lady.
Tina Fey is a giant! She is so hilarious, and wonderful!
Also awesome how Tina Fey got Tracy Morgan AND Alec Baldwin who were both SNL LEGENDS!!!
11:58 Jack's pat on the shoulder made him uncomfortable because it's likely a trigger to his addiction. 😆🤣 All the little throw-aways were golden in this show.
JACK :"Thank you for not embarrassing me."
Liz Lemon was the Woman most men rejected but honestly needed 😂😂.
The Ethan boyfriend bit was so subtle but freaking hilarious
Season One always has such a beautiful sense of humor compared to the rest of the series!! Thank you for posting!!
Season 1 has a lot less of a specific voice of humor. One could say basic
Agreed
I'm still in love with Liz Lemon from the first time I saw her!
"No, Captain Needa dies.. He dies!"
The elevator door sliding perfect 👌
"You're making me gay"...... Best line ever
Thank you Tina Fey.
The best character ❤️❤️
I always knew since 2007 that I was totally going to end up as a Liz Lemon sorta lol I would do the same with the mozzarella sticks
Tina Fey is a comedy genius.
Even when she tells Pete “Rural Juror” to his face, he still can’t understand.
Gosh Tina Fey was my crush growing up on SNL…I always remember why. I once saw a picture of her, Jon Stewart and Conan O Brien at a party…oh to be at that party.
Tina Fey is fiiiine!
8:45 con air the musical would be fire
School girl pushes old lady into a pile of trash... Classic NYC.
We are all glad that the purple dress kept showing up
15:21 This visual is so absurdly funny to me
Good God Lemmon
I miss this show
So many of the jokes in 30 Rock are about Liz Lemon being "unattractive" -- as portrayed by the remarkably beautiful Tina Fey.
I know, it doesn't correalate
Tina Fey was a stone cold fox
I love when Jenna occasionally plays the straight guy when Tina is losing it.
I see 'Best of Liz Lemon' and don't see full episodes. something ain't right.
AHA! Ya burnt!
30 Rock was amazing
that intro always makes me wanna watch Ugly Betty lol
You're making me gay🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. That was epically awesome. ❤️💯
Tina Fey looked so lovely in S1. I wish she hadn’t progressively written Liz as dowdy.
Agreed. She looked amazing in that dress the writers laughed at. I hope she doesn't really think she looks the way she writes that she looks.
@@jakepullman4914 my thoughts exactly
I already have a drink will you buy me mozzarella sticks is my favorite
Date r*pe, cokington, cheeseball, and jag!! I miss this show!
2:45 goddamn Tina, killin it.
'You're making me gay' omfg
Dang, they threw in a beyonce is a dum dum joke. That was hysterical🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
15:16.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
4:55💀💀💀💀 my exes are @ that firm
i like how they flipped the color on ceries and lizs clothes to show opposites.
14:33 fucking classic lol
I said it's a joke!
I felt bad for her.
She looked hot! In a very 2003 fashion kind of way.
1:25 “Beyoncé” 😂😂😂
Tina is so funny and gorgeous, hella got a crush
The crush I never knew I had
I have the weirdest crush on Liz Lemon.
“I thought bars were open til 4?!”
“Nope 11:30 let’s get you to bed!”
You know you’ve screwed up when JENNA is the voice of reason!
I watch 30 Rock on streaming and they cut a whole heap of stuff like Liz saying she would vote for John McCain.
Wow that sucks.
They didn’t cut that line I watched it yesterday.
1:12 😂😂
Where did Fred Armisen come from???!!!! I discover new stuff every time I watch this show!
Just noticed Anna chlumsky is liz lemmler. Loved her in veep!
Much like Parks and Recreation this show became better after it's inaugural season.
floyd my beloved
12:12 We call this "comedic gold"
"Shame based American religious tradition", 🤣....
soperfect..so funny.tU**!!!*
Is that Tracey Jordan, behind her?
I usually hate the posts that are like “this could never get made today” because they’re usually really dumb and wrong but these back door burns on Beyoncé?? That would not fly today. She’s the Queen of America.
Everyone knows Beyonce is dumb as a rock. She hasn't given a real interview since the early 2000s because she embarrassed herself with the things she said.
Tina Fey is still doing beyonce-based comedy. We all watched Titus do his “Lemonade.”
What about the homo jokes? I know they were supposed to be examples of bad judgment, but I knit my brow on that one.
Is it just me or Anna kendric looks like tina fey
I have a crush on them both. We have a type sir.
Tina Fey was hot in her own nerdy way...
For sure
Was?
@@oolala53 that means she used to be hot. Time caught up with her...
@@qube76 I understand what it means. I question that it’s in the past. But you’re entitled to your opinion.
I mean she's 52 and is still very beautiful to this day
Was that Tracy Morgan in the cyclist helmet?
I would buy her mozzarella sticks
Singing Janis Ian at karaoke ...
Am I the only one who doesn’t understand all the ugly Liz gags? That red dress is something else on her.
That's part of the gag. Tina is clearly attractive. Liz Lemon, however, is narratively supposed to be not so attractive.
Tina Fey should have had appearance in Friends. It would not ruin it.
BEYONCE
hold on, in that last clip doesn't a hobo spit in Liz's mouth at some point?
Liz Lemon sharper than Beyonce? LIES! Okey, that was just one lie. Take that back, daughter of Ilsa from Casablanca!
Season 1 30 Rock hits so differently. I always skip it on my rewatch
It’s great!
True it’s different but still great
I think it’s delightful!
You're making me gay
Season 1 is great if you start watching at the Prince Gerhardt episode
Are we suppose to think Liz lemon isn't attractive cause that is just plain wrong.
I'm trying but this show isn't going at all
Tf?
That's on you!
She reminds me of a younger (female) Larry David
