30 Rock put every joke in the trailer and then dared us to sit through the rest.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in 30 Rock actually is?
Director clearly thought 30 Rock was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

The cinematography in 30 Rock is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Rewatched 30 Rock last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

Hot Take: 30 Rock's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Everyone praising the 30 Rock performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.
