flu shot

Who would have thought just two weeks ago that today we'd all be talking about the swine flu? I would have guessed that we'd be talking about a million topics before that (apricots, the Spanish-American War, the music of Seals and Crofts), but here we are about to PANIC. But it's not the first time we've had to deal with swine flu. Here's a commercial from the mid-70s. Yes, we not only had to deal with horrible fashion, gas lines, and really bad hair choices, people needed to get swine flu shots.

Is it just me or was this one of the more lacking episodes of 30 Rock? It's not that it was terrible - as I've said before, even a so-so episode of this show is better than the best episodes of most sitcoms - but this one just seemed to meander. It wasn't as funny as other episodes, despite the quotes I list after the jump, and that whole crew-as-zombies-with-the-flu stuff was a little bit too surreal, even for this show.

I'm also still missing Josh and Toofer and Frank.
