I’m going to try a new thing with 30 Rock. Since we’re all watching it either on TV or Hulu (I assume), and since it’s impossible to even try to point out all of the average of 187 hilarious moments in each episode, and since all any of us really want to do is quote from this, dare I say, most quotable show in the history of TV, that’s just what we’re going to do. (With a video, because I can’t resist.) So that’s a new thing: The 30 Rock favorite quotes list. But first: was last night’s episode not the BEST of the season and one of the best ever? I want to tell my few remaining (probationary) friends who still have not seen this show that this Tina-Fey-written episode, “The Bubble”, is the one to start with at this late date Anyway, to the quotes!
My favorite five quotes from last night’s 30 Rock:
5.
Drew: I didn’t like it outside The Bubble, Liz. It was very ironic.
Liz: No it wasn’t. That’s not how you use that word.
Drew: Stop it. I want to use ironic however I want. I want to stay in the bubble.
4.
Jack: Beautiful people are treated differently, from, say, moderately pleasant looking people. They live in a bubble. A bubble of free drinks, kindness and outdoor sex.
3.
Tracy: You’re my Radar O’Riley, Ken. Now get in here and rub my feet until you hear a chopper coming.
2.
Tracy Jr.: She said she had to take a spa week at Canyon Ranch before my dad broke it half. What’d that even supposed to mean!? I shouldn’t have to hear that! I’m a child!
1.
Drew: That’s it! I quit! This racket is a fart!
And normally I am very anti-montage, but this one of Liz realizing that Dr. Drew sucks at everything because he lives in the good-looking bubble was awesome:
Other things that were awesome about this episode: Bobb’e J. Thompson as Tracy Jr, the Bill Cosby impression, The merkin, Frank’s “Drapes” (as in “Don Draper”) hat, and every single thing Jon Hamm did to prove he’s a comic actor and not just Don Draper. Also, “BFF”: I’m dying to know what it stands for! The next person to interview Tina Fey, in the world, will not be doing their job if they don’t ask.

Dr. Drew (in itself an awesome touch): “The hot Italian lady from the Food Network told me.”
I was kind of hoping the montage would show him botching a surgery.
Butt fucking friends, I’m assuming.
Because Jack sodomized the vice president, and Tracy…probably has some skeletons of that variety, as well.

Tracy Jr. needs to become a regular.
no because jack asks liz if drew ran out of BFF when she says there’s a problem in her relationship I think.
Jenna definitely said “Merkins for hope” like she had no idea what a merkin actually is, and the “Who Wore It Better” between her and Miss Piggy got a laugh from me.
BFF= Butt Fuck Fans
I thought all the gay subtext was hilarious: BFF, the gays giving up the tennis court, “Kenneth, you’re my ace in the hole” “How dare you!”.
Tracy Jr’s rant was epic.
How could i forget the non-tage in the beginning. That’s 2 clever montage bits in one season.
Tracy Jr. : “I have an unemployed father Jack! What are you trying to do? Make me into a stereotype?”
Also, Kenneth’s “accent” was one of the funniest running gags this summer.

Also Kenneth’s “accent” and Jack and Liz’s flashback setup to nowhere.
I love you, television.
When Jenna asked everyone to describe her beauty and they were all, “Fading?” and “80s?” and then there was a pause and that one guy was like, “1880s?”
“Sorry it took me so long to answer. I was just thinking about how weird it is that we eat birds.?
My favorite line from last night that literally made me spring up from the couch in laughter and crack up loudly into an ottoman?:
Tracy Jordan [over the phone to fake Bill Cosby]: “Dr. Heathcliff Huxtable! WIT YO LIGHT ASS KIDS!”
Done.
“DID YOU EVEN VOTE FOR OBAMA?!”
Tracy Jr. should get nominated for a Guest Star Emmy like, today.
This definitely was one of the best episodes of the show.
The whole “doctor getting by on charm” thing reminded me of this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3pbKRc-0mSs
I agree, it would’ve been funnier if they’d shown him botch a surgery.
I thought BFF stood for Butt Fuck Friday.
I loved that Tracy Jr.’s brother was named George Foreman. I always thought it was completely bizarre George Foreman had named so many of his kids George.
This is easily one of the best things you could do for the internet.
Definitely Jack and Liz’s flashback setup to nowhere.
In your face, Scrubs!
I thought he said he racket was a “Farce.”
I thought he said “farked”
Definitely a win on the flashback episode fuck you! Tracy Jr. is the kid from Role Models. Is that out yet? I downloaded it cuz I live in Europe now and thought it was months from release. That kid is comedy gold, and the 30 Rock people know it. I see him making lots more appearances. Great episode suits, Dob?e vykonaný!
I thought you were going to have an answer for us with BFF!
Thank God for DVR. If I didn’t have one, I’d have missed a lot, because the double-teaming of Jack’s French-speaking skills and immediately after, Kenneth’s fall back into his accent, had me laughing for probably 2 minutes straight.

I wouldnt call that a “LOST reference” so much as “directly referring to LOST”

maybe BFF stands for (poop) Back and Forth Forever.
))>><<((
BFF=BEST FUCK FANTASY!
I loved the Calvin Klein encounter “You don’t want to get a card…or a number?”
Liz talking in the low, growly whisper-voice trying to impersonate Jack, then “nope. I lost it. That was Batman”
“I know Mr. Jordan like the back of my stepfather Ron’s hand.”
The Bill Cosby scene was indeed epic, including Jack’s Billy Dee Williams save at the end. “I just want to say I love your work, it’s very smooth.”
30 Rock is more quotable than Seinfeld? Uh…no.
“Why didn’t she call you sweetheart?”
This is a few days late and maybe I’m totally missing something, but what is “What’s that now, Charles?” about? It was in the jury duty episode also.
And also… “I’m starting to dream as Cranston.”
Bro Fuck Fest?
i appreciated this exchange:
liz: because of your whole… disney prince thing…
drew: actually they used footage of me from my high school swim team to draw prince eric…
i’m a guy, so i really don’t know this: is dr drew really that pretty?
Not really. I thought it was odd that they implied he was so attractive.
