I'll take that as confirmation that I'm picking the right show.  Thanks, J-DubbaDub(I Simmons'ed your name for my own amusement).

Anybody see Knights of Prosperity?  I watched in online today.  I'll give it another chance.  Sofia Vergara is unbelievably hot, so it's got that going for it.

You look upset. Did the Liberty lose again?

30 Rock has it's moments...all of them involving Alec Baldwin.  I watch both shows every week.  Studio 60 seems to have turned a corner and is less preachy and more entertaining than it was.  30 Rock dies every time Tina Fey has to carry a scene.  I'm going to miss Tommy Gavin's brother, too.

I saw a few minutes and was unimpressed.  I'd like to smell Sofia Vergara's pit stains though.

Wouldn't you rather just have sex with her?

I'm so very glad that I didn't have to see Tina Fey make out with some guy.

It was sweet how they got out of that one. That was one of the funniest ones yet, by the way. Brian Williams the drunk. Katie Couric Sucks.

When Gerhardt was born, the doctor told his mother he'd either live for 15 minutes or a 100 years. 

He proved 'em all wrong.

The thing I like about 30 Rock, after having watched Fey's up/down years at SNL, is that you can pretty much pick a joke 15 minutes before it happens.  Once you found out that Reubens was a prince, after having seen his state in the previews, you knew an incest joke was on its way.  After the page and Tracy had their first showdown in the office ("lick her face!," classic) you knew they were going to take that to it's logical extension: the devil/angel back and forth.


Yah mo B there!

Studio 60 is far more predictable. You knew a) the door to the roof would be locked, b) The chinese chick would be all over Nate Corddry, and c) The English chick would show up and catch him lying, and holy shit, I feel like I'm talking about "All My Children", so I'll stop now.

So, who's the first to take his or her own death?  I think it's going to be Tom Jeter, just to get out of the whole love triangle situation.

But screw it.  Even if it was predictable, I enjoyed the crap out of it.  The problem my girlfriend has with it - and to me, this isn't a big deal - is that Sorkin "rips himself off."  A lot of the themes and sometimes some direct quotes in Studio 60 first occurred in West Wing and/or Sports Night.  But big deal, it's still fun to watch.
