JoeinAR 1,949 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 It's a CBS show. Only I'm allowed to watch unless Ricard Alex and KM are in the 50 club.Again its the law of demographics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,277 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 None of them are American. Pretty sure Ricard and Alex can't receive CBS.Also pretty sure Alex would rather be caught watching transsexual porn then CBS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I never watched a minute of 30 Rock and don't remember him on SVU.first season only. He was R. Belzer's(Munch) partner before finn.Why awful?she's as funny as cancer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK 3,307 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Never saw either show.30 rock isn't that with the awful Tina fey?30 Rock is hilarious. In its prime, it was one of the best comedies on TV (it dropped the ball in its last 2 seasons). Tina Fey isn't the funniest part of it though. She plays a normal character (or as normal as the show got), which is what made her good in the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeinAR 1,949 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Generally single camera comedies are not funny. I can't think of many that are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 965 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I've been catching commercials for this off and on when flipping channels recently (it premieres on Sunday), and they aren't even mentioning Gilligan in the ads.From what I've read Gilligan is barely involved. It was something he pitched years ago, but then CBS resurrected it on their own. He may have some type of producing and "created by" credit, but I don't believe he's writing or directing anything or actively involved in its production.

Jay 37,581 Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 Generally 3 camera comedies are not funny. I can't think of many that are.30 Rock was a single camera comedy.

Jay 37,581 Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 Review of the entire first seasonAnd confirmation Gilligan basically has nothing to do with it, other than writing the pilot script 13 years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
