Tina Fey got whore'd up for a Jersey Shore spoof

And you won't find any complaints here. God I hope I can look this good when I'm 40 and pregnant. I meant, not that I'm a woman or that I want to be pregnant...you know, whatever the guy equivalent of this would be.

Head on over to Warming Glow for the whole sketch from Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

30 Rock is still on television

Oh how I love Tina Fey, and just the same, her show 30 Rock. I caught on to 30 Rock late in 2007 during its first season, and ever since I’ve been watching the show religiously.

Despite being critically acclaimed and winning almost every television award imaginable, from Emmys, Golden Globes, to SAG honors, 30 Rock has struggled miserably to capture ratings, which are vital to keeping a series alive for a next season. (After winning their first Emmy for “Outstanding Comedy Series,” Tina Fey made sure to thank the “dozens and dozens of viewers” during her acceptance speech. Hah!)

Just ask the sad, defeated fans of short-lived shows like Bionic Woman (1 season), Cavemen (also 1 season), or that ridiculous Friends spin-off Joey (2 seasons). Then again, why anyone would watch a show featuring Joey Tribbiani in the first place still troubles me. Even shows that should-of-been television classics, like Saved by the Bell: The College Years, lasted only 1 season before getting the axe due to low ratings. Poor Slater.

Now in its 3rd season, 30 Rock has slowly but surely, picked up the pace in ratings and has already been renewed by NBC for another season; its rise in popularity thanks in large part to the show’s guest star-power (i.e. Jennifer Anniston, Oprah, Salma Hayek) and of course, through the hard work of Ms. Fey. Likewise, Alec Baldwin, Tracy Morgan, and the rest of the ensemble cast are comedy gold.

Either way, I still recommend this show (Thursday nights at 9:30 PM) to anyone with a goofy sense of humor, and being a comedy series, it should be relatively easy to pick up.

Tonight’s episode also definitely looks like to be a keeper, especially with stud-actor Jon Hamm of Mad Men set to make a guest appearance as a romantic interest to Fey’s character, Liz Lemon. Salma Hayek also reprises her role.

Here’s a preview:

"Sorry I smell like frosting, I just love to bake..."

That should be me!! WAHHHHH

Anyways, that ends my last, futile attempt to convince the world that 30 Rock is worth watching. If you do happen to give the show a try, I hope you enjoy it. If not, you’re probably not weird enough. (Really)

More Tina...

ONTD led me to this interview which was a great read for us stalkers big fans. The most notable part though came in the writer's lead-in.

"Tina Fey wrote a satirical column for The Acorn, her school newspaper, taking aim at the usual subjects -- rigid teachers and even more rigid school policies. Her writing didn't propel her to cool-kid status, but it did make people laugh."

Fuck her high school. Tina is definitely cool-kid status.

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.
