Based more-than-loosely on backstage shenanigans at "Saturday Night Live," "30 Rock" centers on young Liz Lemon, currently head writer for a live sketch-comedy show in New York. Complications follow when the network's new president orders Liz to hire mentally unstable movie star Tracy Jordan to join the cast, throwing neurotic leading lady (and Liz's best friend) Jenna Maroney into a tizzy. Liz tries to juggle all the egos around her while trying to chase her own dream.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

30 Rock's return not only avoids the pitfalls of a sophomore season, but finds the series hitting its jubilant stride with a trove of quips and ingenious gags.

Jon Weisman Variety 10/12/2019
It's funny: I still think "The Office" is the deeper, more rewarding comedy. But "30 Rock" goes wit-to-wit with it, and certainly has provided the most memorable comedic moments of the cut-down 2007-08 season. Go to Full Review Keith Phipps AV Club 10/12/2019

The show's genius comes from its ability to layer smart jokes on top of smart jokes while keeping characters like Jack and Liz warm and alive. Go to Full Review Emma Brockes Guardian 10/11/2019
The writing is so good that the show's formula doesn't poke through. The unique gifts of each character have taken a while to come out -- heading into season two it's apparent that the best comic creation is Kenneth. Go to Full Review Michelle Zoromski IGN Movies 08/13/2024

Season two, though shortened by the writers' strike, was smart, funny and thoroughly entertaining. Go to Full Review Mark Oakley Den of Geek 08/13/2024

Fey has created a series of true wit and intelligence, lightly scattered with always excellent ‘where did that come from’ moments... Go to Full Review Alex Maidy JoBlo's Movie Network 12/14/2022

Stephen S. @SueMe754 Jan 4 Tina Fey is a sociopathic fraud. She uses illegal surveillance techniques to eavesdrop on and stalk individuals who she has targeted for intellectual property theft - specifically to plagiarize her victims' verbal and written conversations, which she copies rote and, then, uses in her TV series and movies. You can tell that she doesn't do this in her books, because they are unreadable. She has been doing this to me for the last ten years without my consent. She has remote access to my phone and laptops. She has been stealing from me for that entire period of time. If she disagrees with this, I encourage her to sue me.

Great stuff See more drew b @RT78061055 09/04/2022 The jokes per minute in this show, is insane. They just keep coming. It would be like going to a baseball game that had a home run every other batter. See more 06/15/2022 There is surprisingly deep commentary in 30 Rock, although it may be hard to see through all the goofiness. Season 2 builds on the plotlines introduced in S1 and contains itself in a rather tight narrative (for a sitcom). It's also one of the funniest shows to ever grace television.
