Boy. What can I even say about 30 Rock that I didn't say in three previous posts? That question isn't rhetorical. Once again, this is a funny and entertaining but by no means incredible network sitcom. It's edgy in comparison to, say, CBS show, but it's rather tame compared to most comedies on cable TV. Its most impressive attribute may be how gracefully it has aged. There really aren't many comedies that are as good in their sixth seasons as they are in their first few, but this is one of those shows. Of course, I really didn't like the first season much, so maybe the bar's always been easy to beat here. At any rate, the show will bow for good a few months form now after an abbreviated seventh season and a grand total of 138 episodes. It doesn't feel as though it's ending too soon, but it doesn't feel too late, either. Maybe I'll have more to say about the series about half a year from now when all is said and done. Until then.
