| Review:
|
30 Rock has run for 3 seasons now, and the show has
maintained an excellent reputation. Starring faces such
as Alec Baldwin, Tina Fey, Tracy Morgan, Jack McBrayer and
Jane Krakowski, the laughs don’t stop. Season 3 is no exception.

The show follows the woman running a variety series
– and the obstacles that come with this. Amongst the difficulties
in running the series are dealing with interference from
corporate personalities, drama with stars of the show, and
trying to live a fairly normal life. Thankfully, the writers
have tons of fresh plots and elements to tell excellent
stories with these characters – and the results show in
every episode. ***
One of the great things about 30 Rock is the show’s
ability to attract A-list guest stars. The third season
is no exception, featuring appearances by Oprah Winfrey,
Steve Martin, Clay Aiken, Mary J. Blige, Sheryl Crow, Elvis
Costello, Steve Buscemi, Alan Alda, Peter Dinklage and plenty
of others. ***
After watching this set, I was reminded of why 30 Rock
has been such a hit for the network. If you haven’t discovered
the show yet, Season 3 would be an excellent place to jump
in. Great cast, sharp writing, and A-list guest stars make
the third time around the charm for 30 Rock. ---
Image and Sound:
The image quality here is very good, which is not unexpected
considering its nature as a recent television series. Colors
and detail are strong and there aren’t any maj or negative
issues to speak of. Audio is front-heavy being that this
is a dialogue-intensive show, but there some moments here
and there where your speakers will get a workout. All in
all the show looks excellent.
