I guess I will formally say that my weekly coverage of new 30 Rock episodes ends (it actually ended 3 months ago). Reasons being because:
1) Pregnant Cornbread does a much better job.
2) It's kind of a pain.
3) The new NBC application is stupid now.
4) I think I might get in trouble if I keep doing it.
Anyways, I'm making a comeback by posting an article written by Alec Baldwin, on Tina Fey. She's made TIME's 2009 list of Most Influential People. Not sure how they can put out the list for 2009, but it doesn't matter because they made the right call here!

Original Air Date: 12/11/08 (TV); 12/12/08 (Online)

Kenneth: I love helping people less fortunate than me.
Toofer: Where do you find them?

Liz: Listen to this- 'Dear Santa, my name is Chanel Jenkins. I would like some new shoes so I can walk to school. My dream is to be a doctor someday-'
Tracy: [crying] That kid's never going to be a doctor.

Liz: Where are you? I hear sunshine.

Jack: I hit her. I hit her with my car... She’s fine. She’s better than fine. They’re giving her a titanium hip. Like the Terminator. It’s only going to make her more powerful.

Liz: Hey Toofer! Can I buy a kid "Fubu?" Is that a swear word?

Liz: I know, but I have a new family, the Glovers! And I am going to get them all these raping Santas. ... Well I kind of assumed they’d rap, which is kind of racist on my part. But still, best Christmas ever! You’re welcome Glovers!

Tracy: What’s the past tense for "scam?" Is it "scrumped?" Liz Lemon, I think you just got scrumped!

Kenneth: I don’t believe people would do that, Ms. Lemon. This is a religious holiday. When has religion caused any trouble?
Liz: Kenneth, you’re naive.
Kenneth: And you’re acting like a real C-word right now. That’s right - a cranky sue!

Tracy: Liz Lemon, I know you’re going to be all alone on Christmas Day. So if you like, you can spend it with the Jordans.
Liz: I’d love too Tracy.
Tracy: Good, we’ll be over at 2. My kids have a peanut allergy, but my dogs only eat steak.

Jack and Colleen: [singing] Merry Christmas...to yooooooou.

Tina Fey Article in Vanity Fair
Tina Fey's Cover Story in Vanity Fair
The Story Behind Tina Fey's Scar Revealed:
Liz Lemon favors her right side. That’s because a faint scar runs across Tina Fey’s left cheek, the result of a violent cutting attack by a stranger when Fey was five. Her husband says, “It was in, like, the front yard of her house, and somebody who just came up, and she just thought somebody marked her with a pen.” You can hardly see the scar in person. But I agree with Richmond that it makes Fey more lovely, like a hint of Marlene Dietrich noir glamour in a Preston Sturges heroine.
“That scar was fascinating to me,” Richmond recalls. “This is somebody who, no matter what it was, has gone through something. And I think it really informs the way she thinks about her life. When you have that kind of thing happen to you, that makes you scared of certain things, that makes you frightened of different things, your comedy comes out in a different kind of way, and it also makes you feel for people.”

Rob: Still think I'm "gayer than the volleyball scene in Top Gun?" I can't deal right now. Ugh, I'm so mad all I can do is dance!

Jenna: Is it Allison-from-wardrobe's baby? What is up with that thing? So she can put her foot in her mouth, so can I!

Kenneth: I’m so sorry, Ms. Maroney.
