Stump the King - 30 Rock

Tina FeyEvery Christmas I look forward to the new slate of holiday episodes. Since I have seen most holiday specials more than enough times, I always enjoy a new holiday themed episode of a current show.

Last year, it was The Office. Michael's hilarious trip to Benihana was a delightful addition to the collection of classic episodes that TV Land will eventually show every year at this time. While I was also happy to see it repeated again this year, the feelings were bittersweet because I knew that if it weren't for the current WGA strike, there would have probably been another great one.

Luckily, 30 Rock was there to pick up the slack. Tina Fey and company offered up a great episode that not only had all the elements of a Christmas classic but was hilarious as well.

There were plenty of guest actors. Buck Henry and Andy Richter as Liz's dad and brother were great to watch and the return of Elaine Stritch made it clear why she won the Emmy for that character.

The best part of the episode was how every single character was involved and was able to share their particular opinions on the holidays, whether they be Christmas, Hanukkah or Ludicrousmas.

Now for this weeks question...

When Toofer decided to dress up like Frank, what was written on his baseball cap?

Nice work, Chris. "Mom Expert" is the correct answer.

30 Rock Christmas episode was a classic and is this not the funniest show on TV beats the office by a mile or two. I am falling in love with Liz Lemon:-)

Line of the century from Buck Henry's character:

"It's just not a Lemon party without Old Dick!"

Trust me, it's hysterical. Look it up.
