Actor-Comedy Series
S&W: Alec Baldwin, 30 Rock



Apparently I need to get on this show(???) I'm a huge Office fan and such, and I've heard this show is better. I've seen it in parts, I'm just not a huge Tina Fey or especially Alec Baldwin fan in their other roles. Am I making a huge mistake by not watching??

[Shatter_Glass]

Colin Firth should definitely win Best Actor. Although regrettably, I haven't seen Crazy Heart yet.

30 Rock is way better than the Office.

[WakingTheMisery]

30 Rock is the worst show I've seen in a long time.

[WakingTheMisery]

Watched a few episodes, did not laugh a single time.

How bout that

[WakingTheMisery]

Tracy Morgan doing racial humor. Yeah.

[formatted.]

What channel is this on?

Also, I hope The Hurt Locker and Modern Family win.

TNT
Thanks!

[Prestonxsmith]

Too bad if you would have watched the clip that it was pretty much all Alec Baldwin and almost no Tracy Morgan...

[WakingTheMisery]

I did watch the clip. The is almost never a scene involving Tracy Morgan that doesn't pertain to race or him just acting like a complete retard.

This is actually kinda true, but its just his character. There are the scenes with Tracy Jr. I love those.

[Thomas Balkcom]

Waltz is racking up so many damn awards.

[fake empire]

What's wrong with Tracy Morgan acting like a complete retard?

[Shatter_Glass]

30 Rock is way better than the Office.

how so? (i know....i know) but i mean i LOVE south park, it's always sunny..., curb your enthusiasm. could I appreciate 30 rock??

I like all those shows, Curb is my favorite comedy on tv. So I don't see why you wouldn't like 30 Rock too.

[narcoleptic953]

Basterds ensemble win is terrific news. Bullock ruined my predictions though.

[Jake Gyllenhaal]

Basterds ensemble win is terrific news. Bullock ruined my predictions though.

Very happy to see the Basterds win. I was actually surprised Up In The Air wasn't nominated. I guess three great performances (and likely Oscar nominations) doesn't count as an ensemble. But at the moment, Basterds have been my favorite film of 2009.

[-Aaron-]

I am tired of Bullock ruining Carey Mulligan's year for her outstanding performance.

[narcoleptic953]

The Hurt Locker beats Avatar at the PGA. I'm fucking thrilled.

[Thomas Balkcom]

that's awesome!

[WhiteLies.]

This, a thousand times over. Hopefully it'll happen again at the Oscars.

[narcoleptic953]

This gives me hope. What with Basterds winning the SAG and The Hurt Locker winning the PGA, it's been a good weekend for my favorite films of last year. Especially nice to wash the bad taste out of my mouth from the Globes...

preemptive mouthwashing for the Oscars too...

congrats on 2k!

[narcoleptic953]

preemptive mouthwashing for the Oscars too...

If Avatar was the frontrunner, it isn't anymore, especially since it isn't winning the DGA and probably isn't winning the BAFTA. Should make for a much more interesting Oscar night than last year, at least.

good point. Doesn't stand a chance for the DGA, curious as to what you think will win the BAFTA?

[narcoleptic953]

BAFTA is a hard call I think, but it's worth noting that Titanic didn't win there. I wouldn't be all that surprised if they just went a completely different route and gave it to An Education though...

Jesus, only one time in the last decade has the winner of the DGA not gone on to win the Oscar. Did not know that.

[Thomas Balkcom]

and anyone could easily figure out the one year they do not match up.

[WhiteLies.]

congrats on 2k!
Wow, didn't even realize I'd hit it. Going on 3 years of dedicated lurking!

[narcoleptic953]

I thought it was 2? Ang Lee for Crouching Tiger and Rob Marshall for Chicago weren't repeated at the Oscars...

[Thomas Balkcom]

I worded it weird, I meant the movie that the director won it for went on to win Best Picture all but once.

edit: shit it was twice anyway, didn't bother to look at the winner for 2000.

[phil19]

glad michael c hall won

[TJ Wells]

My opinion:

The PGA was the knife being stuck into Avatar's chest. The DGA will be the twist.

[narcoleptic953]

Kathryn Bigelow becomes the first woman to ever win the DGA. Next stop, Oscar.

I love how these articles I'm reading are STILL trying to say Cameron is in it. Are they all high?

[narcoleptic953]

I know, it's ridiculous. Stop writing and releasing articles before the thing is even done with.

[Thomas Balkcom]

The Hurt Locker,Up in the Air, and The Cove are WGA winners.

[narcoleptic953]

The Hurt Locker,Up in the Air, and The Cove are WGA winners.

No surprise there. Too bad Basterds wasn't eligible.

agreed.
