Unfortunately, I think the show is going to switch from a SNL satire to an island game satire. And since I can’t stand the latter, none of it will feel funny. Who was dropped in that episode, anyway? We got a couple new faces but somebody was missing. And will the guy under the candy machine end up dead, as a funny way to write him off? I hope not, as he was a reliable character, both as straight man and instigator. ---

[QUOTE=Dyslexics Untie!] Unfortunately, I think the show is going to switch from a SNL satire to an island game satire. And since I can’t stand the latter, none of it will feel funny. [/QUOTE] Just out of curiosity, what are you basing that on? And Jenna was misssing from the MILF Island episode. ---

I really like the _MILF Island_ theme music. Woooooo-eeeeee-oooooooooooooo-eeee-oooo. ---

[QUOTE=Slacker] Just out of curiosity, what are you basing that on? And Jenna was misssing from the MILF Island episode. [/QUOTE] Well, the obvious, that she was assigned to write something for the island star. As you say, Jenna is missing. Also the candy guy has a clear path to being written off. ---

I really don’t think that’s the direction the show is going in, and Pete will be fine. So, how many of you would watch _Dog Swap_, the show they said was coming on after _MILF Island_? ---

[QUOTE=ArizonaTeach] No, you’re thinking of Christopher Walken, who celebrated his 100th episode hosting last week. Including reruns. [/QUOTE] I’m pretty sure he’s thinking of Alec Baldwin who has hosted SNL a million times also, and has been very funny. Schwetty Balls? Hello. The doctor on the soap opera who says “anal canal” ay-nul cay-nul. The doctor who has delivered 100% little girls (some of whom are actually born with a penis. What percent? I don’t know. . .49, 50, 51. . .something like that). Anyway. . .I didn’t start a “30 Rock” thread, but I gave a shout-out in the “Office” thread. “30 Rock” is the funniest show on TV right now, IMO. I loved the bit with Gilly, “we had to have class in the boiler room where we were taught to sweep sawdust so that we could work in a factory some day.” The side-plot with the vending machine was stupid, but they do a lot of side-plots, and they’re always hit or miss. I appreciate that they take the chance. Next week, the Rat King returns. How funny is that dude? Tracey Morgan is hilarious on this show. . .totally playing off the stereotype. Kenneth the Page is hilarious. ---

“In my mind I’m back in that basement sweeping sawdust into little piles while Gilley sits in the corner playing with himself.” “There was some evidence that I ate my twin…” Brilliant 😛 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/30-rock-last-thursday-4-10-anyone/445021.md?page=1)
