While I’m good with the rest of the nominations, I don’t think Fey’s guest appearance was all that funny. Maybe it was a down year for female guest appearances in a Comedy?

What, you didn’t think a two-episode-long Marcia Clark joke was timely enough?

I must have missed those episodes during that _Hart to Hart_ marathon.

I watched the series last night. I liked it. I think I have a crush on Kimmy, but only the character w/ her usual appearance.

It’s cool to see Best Week Ever panelists keep popping up on shows.

I don’t really get the issues people are having with feelings over the bunker premise.

I binge watched and loved it. However I do have two complaints. Tina Fey (and I am a HUGE fan) acts like she’s doing an SNL skit. It’s like she’s not even trying to be anyone but Tina Fey. I am fine with Jane Krakowski being exactly like Jenna but I guess she is just that good at the part she plays. Also the groaning slapstick idiot failed rescuer stepfather Randy. Kimmy and Titus are cute and quirky without Ernest saving Christmas every few episodes.
