Does anyone watch this show? Last night’s episode was hilarious! I especially loved the opening where Liz denounced the whole concept of Valentine’s day. I frequently go off on rants about corporate card holidays just like that. 😃 ---

The whole episode was funny, but Jon Hamm, Jason Sudeikis, and Dean Winters as the three Jamaican nurses had me laughing out loud even though I was watching it… alone… on Valentines weekend… just like Liz Lemon and Jenna… sigh. Wait a minute, Bon Jovi just walked in! “I’ve got a new therapist now, I’m taking my meds, I can’t even see the electricity coming from your head anymore. I’m sorry but it’s over.” ---

Jenna gets dumped by her stalker on Valentine’s Day? Ouch! ---

We should have this thread re-titled to mention the specific episode, since we usually have a thread every week. I liked: Ooooh, Avery Jessup. She was on Maxim’s “I’d rape that” top 100. ---

It was definitely one of the better ones this season. Jack getting called out was great… is this the first time that has happened? I think the only other time was when he was with CC. Jon Bon Jovi as a palm tree… I was rolling on the floor! Happy Anna Howard Shaw’s Eve to everyone! ---

The montage of all of Jenna’s interactions with her stalker was awesome. I particularly liked the fridge full of baby doll heads. ---

“I want to eat your boogers” Way to many great lines, but the litany of everyone else’s Valentine plans alone made it a winner. And I missed the closing credits–was that Parker Posey? I have to say she’s hotter as a blonde. ---

And I missed the closing credits–was that Parker Posey? I have to say she’s hotter as a blonde. If you are talking about Jack’s latest. That was [Elizabeth Banks](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0006969/). Now that you mention it, she does resemble Parker Posey quite a bit. Awesome episode! So much funny from start to finish. Bon Jovi’s role was awesome (Always read things before you sign them!) as was liz lemon thinking he was every tree. ---

Jon Hamm is one of those actors who it’s hard to make not sexy; even dressing him in a (female) nurse’s uniform and giving him the nerd glasses earlier didn’t do it. It’s also great that with as much press and cred as he’s getting for MAD MEN he’s still willing to do goofy roles like the inept bubble doctor. ---

> [@pricciar](#): > > If you are talking about Jack’s latest. That was [Elizabeth Banks](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0006969/). I thought that was her! It definitely sounded like her but she looked a lot different than when she was on Scrubs as Kim, so I couldn’t be 100% sure. ---

I wonder if Alec Baldwin’s unfortunate heavily reported ER visit and family dysfunction will affect his decision to stay on the show. (He’s been talking of walking when his contract is up at the end of this season.) ---

> [@Sampiro](#): > > I wonder if Alec Baldwin’s unfortunate heavily reported ER visit and family dysfunction will affect his decision to stay on the show. (He’s been talking of walking when his contract is up at the end of this season.) I hope he stays. It’ll seriously fuck up the show if he leaves. ---

I love the show, and i love most of the characters, but if Alec Baldwin left i’m not sure i could watch it. I could watch his scenes alone and be happy. He has great comic timing and presence, and it doesn’t hurt that he gets some of the best lines in the show. ---
