30 Rock Season 3

If you are after a comedy that actually makes you laugh out loud, 30 Rock Season 3 is available on and right now. Across 1 season, the show has had time to find its rhythm and keep it. With 820 viewer ratings on TMDB, this is not a title flying under the radar. Tina Fey sets the tone, and the rest of the cast matches it scene for scene. There is no real reason to keep putting it off.

There is a reason 30 Rock Season 3 keeps coming up in conversation. 30 Rock Season 3 does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. Liz focuses heavily on her personal life, trying to adopt a child and find a new romantic partner. Meanwhile, Jack Donaghy pursues a new relationship, Jenna Maroney undertakes a new Janis Joplin-based film project, and Tracy Jordan enjoys the success of his video game developed at the end of the previous season. Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was aired in 2008. What keeps 30 Rock Season 3 from feeling disposable is a cast that clearly understands the material better than the format usually demands. The hit rate here is high enough that skipping ahead never feels like an option.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, 30 Rock Season 3 is a strong candidate. It stands on its own even without an obvious comparison point. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch if your schedule allows. Tina Fey's comic timing carries it through its weaker moments. The kind of comedy you recommend to someone who claims they do not watch much.
