“30 Rock” — Cleveland
“Well played, Garkel.”
Look, I don’t know if I’m going to be able to get through this blog post. Cleveland is just beckoning to me! I absolutely must go.
Though as I think about it, I wonder if my inevitable trip to The Forest City will be as spendiperous (not a word) as Liz Lemon’s because I suspect I won’t be followed by that kick ass Cleveland song (presumably recorded by the Cleveland Tourism Board) that was playing under her and Floyd’s montage throughout the city.
Alas.
Though this Cleveland business does bring up an interesting issue: is Jason Sudeikis leaving the show, because he’s way better on 30 Rock than he is on SNL, and he and Tina Fey have really great chemistry. Did that last sentence start leaning a little too fan-girly toward the end? Hmm.
Elsewhere in the episode I liked the Tracy Jordan/Dave Chappelle “Black Crusaders” plotline, which I suspect will run through the rest of the season.
Also appreciated: any additional references to Phoebe’s “hollow bones.” Good stuff.

so, at what point should i allow a television actor’s off-camera behavior to affect my enjoyment of his character? i love baldwin in 30 rock, but have you heard that phone message he left for his daughter? ‘kinda made me cringe when i just saw his face, gotta admit. (maybe that’s a silly question. it’s not like i boycott polanski movies.) i love that liz-floyd chemistry. don’t go, floyd.

I checked up on the comments to make just that comment.
