Emmy Award winner Tina Fey writes, executive produces, and stars as Liz Lemon, the head writer of a live variety program in New York City. Liz's life is turned upside down when brash new network executive Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin in his Golden Globe winning role) interferes with her show, bringing the wildly unpredictable Tracy Jordan (Tracy Morgan) into the cast. Now it's up to Liz to manage the mayhem and still try and have a life. Join in the behind-the-scenes hilarity with the complete first season (21 episodes) on DVD.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Light and enjoyable Comment: Nice sitcom. Funny in an elegant way. My daughter, who is 17, found it outright hilarious. Perfect for the hard-core Obama crowd
Customer Rating:      Summary: 30 rock Comment: Tina fay and cast are great in this half hour show. the DVD is well worth the buy.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Still Laughing Comment: I was in a poor mood when I sat down and popped the first "30 Rock" DVD into the player. It didn't take long for this show to turn things around.
Tina Fey and the whole cast are hilarious in this show, and the writing is fabulous. They made my evening.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Not sure? Start here and you'll love it. Comment: I saw a couple episodes on tv and I really didn't like it. It just didn't make sense. But then I saw the first few episodes of season 1 and I'm hooked! It's hard to stop watching. If you're not sure about the show, watch the first couple episodes and you'll love it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: The Rural Juror... Try Saying That 3 Times Fast Comment: Liz Lemon (you gotta love that name) is surrounded by chaos, and without her, the world would fall apart without somebody keeping it spinning and/or GE would lose tons of money. 30 Rock is simply a show about crazy, over-inflated egos, and the girl that tries to keep them all together. And while Tina Fey amazingly plays the straight girl (to the confusion, and bemusement of some), the show's humor comes from the out of control egos, from the dumb blond, Jenna, self-proclaimed mental, Tracy Jordan, and the Vice President of East Coast Television and Microwave Oven Programming, Jack Donaghy (NOT Donahy).
Amazingly, the only episode that is a complete mess is "The Pilot," but as the show progresses, and finds its footing after a mere 4 episodes. From there on out, it's brilliant. The show creates compelling and humorous storylines, crafting great characters along the way. The humor is not always prevalent however, especially in Liz Lemon's personal storylines, but the show certainly has its moments, such as the classic fireworks spectacular that you have to see to believe. The show also greatly benefits from pitch-perfect casting. Also surprisingly, the show doesn't misuse, overuse, or abuse its use of guest stars (in this season).
I must admit, it took 3 years for me to get into the show, but once you get into it, it compels you to keep pressing on. I don't really know why, or how they do it. They just do it. And the show deserves all the acclaim it receives, and yes, it deservedly beat The Office for at least this season. I look forward to spending more time with Liz Lemon, the best named character on TV.
