Dear Tina Fey
Dear Tina Fey,
Congratulations, Tina Fey, on winning the 2008 Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Comedy Series. You know how excited we are for you here at Watching 30 Rock both as bloggers who write a site about your show and also as big fans of both the show, you, and all your other work. We are so happy for you! Finally getting the recognition you deserve as an amazing comedic actress.
We were really, really bummed however, that the SHOW didn’t win the Golden Globe this year, losing to HBO’s Extras which I must admit I have never seen, even though I dig Ricky Gervais. Do you watch that show, Tina Fey? Do you watch any of the other shows nominated in your category? (Californication, Pushing Daisies, Entourage). If you do watch them, do you watch them because you like them or did you just start watching after the nominations so you could check out the competition? It’s okay, Tina Fey, you can tell me. We were also really bummed that Alec Baldwin didn’t win in his category, because he is just getting funnier and funnier with every episode, much like the show itself. And he did do an excellent job finishing his muffin. Please tell him that from us.
So I have another question for you, Tina Fey. Did you even bother watching the pseudo-Golden Globes broadcast tonight, with the douchey hosts from Access Hollywood just standing there telling us who won and offering their “commentary” like we even care what they think. What a joke. I mean, awards shows are always too long and have stupid jokes and boring moments and the occasional pompous speech, but dammit, that is why we watch them! To see who shows up in a stupid dress or drunk or who didn’t bother to comb their hair. I’m sure that is at least part of the reason you like to go too!
So congratulations, Tina Fey. We would totally like to see your Golden Globes some time and I totally don’t mean that in a dirty way.
Stay righteous, Tina Fey.
Lori

[...] The Golden Globes was a wilted down version of their normal alcohol party with crazy dresses and lots of bling. After failing to reach a compromise with the Writers Guild of America the Golden Globes were a boring press conference that few bothered to watch. Even though America Ferrera was nominated in Ugly Betty’s sole recognition (Yes I am holding a grudge) for best actress she lost to Tina Fey of 30 Rock. [...]
