Credit Well Deserved

Unfortunately, due to the lack of my own personal access to cable television while living in the dorms, I missed the Screen Actors Guild Awards (SAG). Come to think of it, if I did have access to it I probably wouldn't have watched it because I'm not the biggest fan of red carpet award shows, but thanks to the internet I was able to view this clip.

Huge congrats to coolkidsroom favorite Tina Fey for winning in the category of Outstanding Performance of a Female Actor in a Comedy Series. She also gives a shout out to the writers, and apparently the SAG gave tons of credit to the WGA throughout the night. It's an awesome sight to see all these units in Hollywood really coming together in these harsh times.

Other notable winners were 30 Rock star Alec Baldwin, the entire Sopranos cast, The Office cast, and more, but I would've loved to see people behind Mad Men accept an award on stage in front of many since the Golden Globes didn't air in its traditional fashion

The full of list of award winners can be found here.

Tina Fey is TOP TIER

I was disgustingly under the weather for this past week, which unfortunately spoiled my Christmas and the days after, resulting in a fun-filled schedule of downing Nyquil, hibernating, and being terrified of sunlight. On the bright side of things, being horribly sick allowed me to catch up on some of my favorite T.V. shows and check out those I’ve missed out on.

Namely, this meant a heavy dose of watching Saved by the Bell DVD’s – gotta take notes from the original pimp, Zack Morris, of course – checking out episodes of The Office – I don’t know about the hour long ones, its just a burnout – and re-watching season 3 of Entourage on HBO – still my favorite “guy” show.

If you’ve been deprived of quality entertainment, I recommend watching any of these shows in any form, BUT, to save most of your energy for one show in particular, that being NBC’s relatively new comedy, 30 ROCK.


Thanks to 30 Rock, I truly believe I’ve found the new love of my life in the show’s creator, producer, lead actress and writer… TINA FEY.



my wifey.

Yeah, that’s a weird wedding dress pic from the show, but damn, she’s beautiful. She’s smart, talented, attractive, has a great sense of humor and distinguished resume, and even better, she’s apparently a self-proclaimed Star Wars fan. I bet in high school she gave all the nerds in her class G.P.A. boners. In sum, the lovely Tina Fey is definitely top tier. And my new wifey.


Really though, 30 Rock is a genuinely funny show worth watching. The series basically revolves around Fey’s character Liz Lemon in a sort of behind-the-scenes setting, as she attempts to manage an insane cast & crew of an SNL-like show, such as her boss Jack Donaghy played by Alec Baldwin, who is also fuckin’ hilarious (like his acting in The Departed, also good shit). As mentioned in an earlier post by nazer, both Fey and Baldwin were up for awards at the 2007 Golden Globes, but all other nominations aside, 30 Rock took home the gold, wining out in the category of “Outstanding Comedy Series.”

Ironically, its great how I coincided my interest in the show with the WGA Writers Strike, so I pretty much just screwed myself over now that I’m dieing for new episodes. Fuck.
