Tracy: "Affirmative action was designed to keep women and minorities in competition with each other to distract us, while white dudes inject AIDS into our chicken nuggets"

From the pilot episode. I've been hooked since.

Alan Alda as Milton: "A guy crying about a chicken and a baby? I thought this was a comedy show."

For us old-timers who loved M.A.S.H that one was genius.

Edit: fixed reddit asterisk hilarity in MASH

There was this one episode where Tracy was reminicizing about his poor old days. And he goes on a rampage: “I’ve seen a blind guy bite a police horse! A puppy committed suicide after he saw our bathroom! I once bit into a burrito and there was a child’s shoe in it! I’ve seen a hooker eat a tire! A pack of wild dogs took over and successfully ran a Wendy’s. The sewer people stole my skateboard! The projects I lived in were named after Zachary Taylor - generally considered to be one of the worst Presidents of all time! I once saw a baby give another baby a tattoo… They were very drunk!!”

It isn't a Lemon Party without old Dick!

(I really thought this would already be mentioned in the comments.)

What sold me on this show was the entire dialogue at the end of last season (I think last season) where Tracy wanted to kill Kenneth to get hated again and Jack gives that long speech about working in television. "If you want them to hate you, if you want them to forget you, go back to working Television."

It was the moment I realized that Alec was talking about his own career, and that the entire show is about the real careers behind NBC.

crazy8ty8 · 5 months

My favorite line on 30 rock (and I have watched every season) occurred really recently. Paraphrased, because I can never remember anything verbatim

LL: "That was when I was on a hunger strike to end Apartheid in South Africa"

Tracy " Oh! You're the one that fixed that. Thank you so much"

Tracy Jordan: "I'm gonna make you a mix-tape. You like Phil Collins?"

Jack Donaghy: "I got two ears and a heart, don't I?"

One of my favorite lines.

takeyourprotienpills · 5 months

I can't believe no one's said the best one ever! When Dr. S is in the hospital with a bloody doctor's coat and says something like, "oh don't worry about this. I just got back from a costume party. The host's dog attacked me and I had to stab it"

Jamboner · 5 months

It's long, but jesus christ Dennis Duffy is hilarious:

Dear Liz Lemon: While other women have bigger boobs than you, no other woman has as big a heart. When I saw you getting ready to go out and get nailed by a bunch of guys last night, I knew for sure it was over between us, and for the first time since the '86 World Series, I cried... I cried like a big, dumb homo. And if it was up to me, we'd be together forever. But there's a new thing called "women's liberation", which gives you women the right to choose and you have chosen to abort me, and that I must live with. So tonight, when you arrive home, I'll be gone. I officially renounce my squatter's rights.

Connels · 5 months

I used to say this to my middle school students every single day and it's the only tactic that has gotten them to use "well".

Recently one of my kids (all of whom have special needs) asked this general education dweebo how he was doing and the kid said,"Oh, I'm doing good." My kid just gave him this pitying look and said, "Oh no. Superman does good. You're doing well and you need to start paying attention."

BABOOM.

Too late for anyone to see it, but my favorite moment is in the episode in which tracy googles himself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zbk4Bvic5jA

I've stopped eating while watching this show, I almost choked several times. Here's another:

Jenna: That guy wanted to buy you a drink! Liz: Really? But I already have a drink. Do you think he’d buy me mozzarella sticks?

endymion32 · 5 months

My favorite line:

Tracy: [making a mix tape for Jack] Do you like Phil Collins?

Jack: I have two ears and a heart, don't I?

(By the way, not sure about the total grammatical truth of the OP. Most dictionaries do have a minor listing for "good" as an adverb.)

Such a quotable show. Glad someone put in the Lemon Party joke, I did a spit take when I heard that one...and I wasn't even drinking anything.

One of my favorite Tracy Jordan quotes:

“I do not want to disappoint our Japanese public, especially Godzilla. Hahaha! I'm just kidding, I know he doesn't care what humans do.”

this show is like Arrested Development for me...its got some great writing and clever dialogue but I just don't like it as a show, I find it near impossible to watch and enjoy

From when Liz's family, including her father Richard, come to celebrate Christmas.

CheddaTaco · 5 months

Reminds me how much more I liked Tracy's character in the earlier seasons when he was a somewhat coherent person. He just seems so detached from reality now (or at least, much more than he was before), I feel like if they tried writing a similar line for Tracy now, it would feel completely out of character.

Still enjoy the show a lot, but just feel like Jack Donaghy is the only character I find consistently funny these days (writing staff is always good too, but just never enough screen time for them).
