Carol Kane is a terrible actress who can't form a sentence without sounding like she has a speech impediment. And her story lines aren't funny.

Slowpoke Rodriguez posted:Jane Krakowski as a Native American is eyeroll-worthy no matter what the jokes around it are, because "ha ha, this white lady is an indian" is what it boils down to. I found the redskins meeting very funny, but I'm pretty glad it seems to be over with. That said, if we lose her parents I will be pretty pissed. What the gently caress kind of unfunny monster thinks Jenna was a weak link on 30 Rock!?

I don't think her mush-mouthed speech is because she's from New York. None of my friends from NY plop words from their mouths like that. She's always had that weird slur to her voice and I think it works pretty well for certain characters she plays, but saying "she's from NY" doesn't automatically make her easier to listen to if you don't like slurred speech.

The Redskins still have that name and it's still racist as hell, but the last time it was in the news feels like ancient history, especially with the Trump-era multiple scandals per week news cycle.

It's too hard for me to find the line between Tracy Morgan the person and the characters he plays. Seeing him in interviews makes it seem like Tracy Jordan wasn't a character and they just let him exist on the show.

Chris was the worst part of 30 Rock. I don't know if he counts sense he didn't show up until the end, but he was by far the least funny of Liz's boyfriends.

Seriously, Lillian is fine. She slurs her words like some people overenunciate whilst gentrifying.

Every one of you are wrong. Tracy, Jenna, Kenneth, and Criss were great on 30 Rock. Hazel was the absolute worst.

I don't think either 30 Rock or Kimmy have weak links as such, all the characters have great comedic moments at times imo. I think we can all agree, though, that 30 Rock definitely needed more Devon Banks.

I know it's also just kind of how she sounds, but it's also perfect for the role. She's a drug addled old crazy catlady, do you people want her to sound like the queen?

I guess the weak 30 rock link would be uh, Judah Friedla No wait he was perfect those episodes where Tracy makes a porn game and goes all Salieri 30 rock was a drat good show

Davros1 posted:Every one of you are wrong. Tracy, Jenna, Kenneth, and Criss were great on 30 Rock. I agree 100%. Also Lillian on UKS is fine but what made her suck so much this season was having her own plot. She works better as a side character for other people to play off of or to tag along on adventures.

I don't think she sucked this season, but I agree. Lillian works best when she's off doing her own thing we don't see much of, and gets dragged into other people's hijinks. Focusing on what she's doing is fine, but not as often as this season.

30 Rock's weakest moments weren't characters, they were just individual episodes or plotlines that didn't work: "TGS Hates Women," a lot of Jack's romance stuff in seasons 3 and 4, a lot of the stuff with Hazel, etc.

Lilian is the best, especially "my husband would be spinning in the wall if he heard this" a few episodes before she's standing next to a very shoddily replastered wall.
