Another rerun; new episodes coming soon

by Lori

Good news, 30 Rockers! According to the NBC website, 30 Rock will be returning in January with new episodes! Now presumably, these are episodes completed before the writer’s strike shut down production of the show. I guess NBC was smart to hold some back, because I know I am aching for some new episodes …. I mean, I dig the reruns and all, but my DVR hasn’t recorded anything new for me in over a week! And after all the holiday madness, when we are in post-party hangover mid-January blues, some new TV shows will definitely hit the spot. And if this strike drags on, do not despair, as we will start recapping season one episodes (from DVD) as well as discussing DVD extras and Tina Fey commentary in the new year. What a way to start 2008!

As for last night’s rerun, it’s a reviewing of “Jack Get’s in the Game,” featuring guest star Will Arnett as Jack’s nemesis, Devin Banks. If you recall they are both competing for the job of General Electric’s CEO … Jack through “getting noticed” and Devin through marrying the boss’s unattractive daughter while convincing himself and everyone else that he’s not gay. Good times! In addition, we get a fat Jenna who spent the summer eating pizza and a Tracy who takes Kenneth the Page for his “work wife,” since his own wife Angie kicked him out. This is also the episode that features the classic “Werewolf Bar Mitzvah” and one of the funniest moments of the season thus far:

So if you missed the show last night or don’t have your Tivo set to record reruns, you can watch the full episode at NBC.com or reread our recap. And now we all have January to look forward too!
