A community for the fans and critics of the show 30 Rock.

Discussion of the show, pictures from the show and anything else 30 Rock related.

Rules:

  1. All DubVee instance rules apply. See the sidebar at https://dubvee.org. Those are pretty comprehensive, so we don't really need to add much to those.
  2. No politics outside of what's referenced on the show. Let's leave that drama elsewhere since there's plenty of it.
  3. All posts must be 30 Rock related or adjacent. You dummies are awesome, so I don't think I've ever had to mod any posts for this, but codifying it for good measure.
  4. Less a rule and more of a guideline, but please try to provide alt text if your instance + client combination support it. If not, then please try to make an effort to provide a description of any image posts in the post body. Let's be an a11y when we can :)
  5. Don't make fun of people for misusing dated cultural references. Are we all cowabunga on this?
  6. No talking about Krang. It would be a waste of time to talk about Krang on ~~television~~ the internet.

I came to the conclusion that it does not. While this is a meta joke around the fact that this is just a TV show, a true "fourth wall break" involves acknowledging the audience. If anything, this is acknowledging the camera, which is not the same thing.

He didn't so much break the fourth wall as jam his nose up against it.

Do you mean Tracy Jordan or the other guy who looks familiar but I can't place?

Tracy initially calls him Questlove when they meet.

What has he said that’s been antisemitic? I tried finding anything and couldn’t
