30 Rock: Jennifer Aniston Is "Crazy Putty"

thumbnail icon: 30 Rock: Jennifer Aniston Is "Crazy Putty"

I checked. Crazyputty.com is already taken (and so is the other one.) But that's pretty much the only bad news about last night's 30 Rock, "The One With The Cast Of Night Court" (Friends reference!) and guest-star Jennifer Aniston. Stunt casting usually sucks, but this season of 30 Rock has already taken it to a whole other, not a synonym-for-bad-anymore level. If you're reading this, you've already watched or planned to watch the whole thing (riiight?), but here's Liz's discovery of Jen and Jack's shenanigans and Jen's crazy birthday song moment. Crazy putty!

When you think about it, it's kind of weird for chicks to have nicknamed their friend "crazy-pussy," but I still love jokes that get around the censors. (Also: F Train -- two new catchphrases in one clip!):

And the Birthday Song scene -- I love what she does with her voice at the end:

Also, the cast of Night Court was re-united, which might be a breach of Warner Brothers' intellectual property. So meta! (You can, of course, watch the whole episode here.)

i was so hoping for a marsha warfield secret surprise appearance, but alas, it was not to be.

All of you guys better be watching this show, because if it gets canceled, I'm killing myself and it'll be all your faults!

When i saw Jennifer Aniston, i groaned and in my head thought "there is no way this episode could be good."
But i should have known. I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN.
Because it was SO GOOD, guys.

this was THE best episode so far. the cast of Night Court???! damn. genius! so glad i didn't know about that. (and i loved the crazy Aniston/Jack relationship.)

i felt the Oprah episode was sub-par (a lot of it had to do with the fact that Oprah couldn't even deliver her lines convincingly) but this. this. if they can keep this up, with nerdy surprise like this? thursday nights are gonna be some kind of heaven for all of us.

I thought the Oprah episode was great and this one was just so-so. Tracy's white woman monster claw -- excellent.

Also, shame they couldn't get Bull to reunite either.

And I personally like jokes from 30 Rock, "The One With The Cast Of Night Court" You know it's so funny! I would like to mention my favorite episode : Cerie's throwaway line about the club called Aquarium where women dance in an area encased by water and men feed them!
