  • 30 Rock: Complexity, Metareferentiality and the Contemporary Quality Sitcom
    30 Rock: Complexity, Metareferentiality and the Contemporary Quality Sitcom Katrin Horn When the sitcom 30 Rock first aired in 2006 on NBC, the odds were against a renewal for a second season. Not only was it pitched against another new show with the same “behind the scenes”-idea, namely the drama series Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. 30 Rock’s often absurd storylines, obscure references, quick- witted dialogues, and fast-paced punch lines furthermore did not make for easy consumption, and thus the show failed to attract a sizeable amount of viewers. While Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip did not become an instant success either, it still did comparatively well in the Nielson ratings and had the additional advantage of being a drama series produced by a household name, Aaron Sorkin1 of The West Wing (NBC, 1999-2006) fame, at a time when high-quality prime-time drama shows were dominating fan and critical debates about TV. Still, in a rather surprising programming decision NBC cancelled the drama series, renewed the comedy instead and later incorporated 30 Rock into its Thursday night line-up2 called “Comedy Night Done Right.”3 Here the show has been aired between other single-camera-comedy shows which, like 30 Rock, 1 | Aaron Sorkin has aEntwurf short cameo in “Plan B” (S5E18), in which he meets Liz Lemon as they both apply for the same writing job: Liz: Do I know you? Aaron: You know my work. Walk with me. I’m Aaron Sorkin. The West Wing, A Few Good Men, The Social Network.

The first player we see is VIRGE HOOGESTEGER. BRUCE (V.O.) Virge Hoogesteger., What kind of name is that? Nicknamed 'The Virgin.' Well, look at him.

  • We Have Kidney Cancer Survivors Stories Inspiration and Advice from Patients and Caregivers
    2012 Edition The Kidney Cancer Association Presents... We Have Kidney Cancer Survivors Stories Inspiration and advice from patients and caregivers Supported by KidneyCancer.org FOREWORD I am always thrilled to meet fellow kidney cancer survivors and their families. When I was diagnosed 18 years ago with Stage III kidney cancer, the only encouragement I received from my surgeon was that he would “make me as comfortable and happy as possible.” As a straightforward New Yorker, I decided that “comfortable and happy” wasn’t going to cut it with me. I very sweetly advised him that I had “comfortable and happy” covered; I needed him to do something more. Following a radical nephrectomy of a 10 cm tumor (that was classified as papillary), I endured one year of low-dose subcutaneous immunotherapy – at the time, the only FDA approved treatment on the market -- and was pronounced cancer-free. Six months later, a lymph node surfaced in my neck; it was malignant. What to do? My oncologist put me on a chemotherapy regimen that combined two other chemical agents. It was an extremely challenging treatment, but it seems to have worked. I have subsequently had all sorts of “quirky” medical issues, “Duringmyexperience but, fortunately, kidney cancer has not been among them. withcancer,Icametorealize During my experience with cancer, I came to realize that one thatonethingwealways thing we always need is HOPE. Kidney cancer statistics are needisHOPE.” daunting and can weigh heavily on one’s state of mind. This is what propelled me to become involved with the Kidney Cancer Association: I wanted to be the voice for those unable to speak up; the shoulder for those who needed a boost; and, most importantly, the one who provided hope when things looked grim.

The tree endured long into the 19th century and was once a popular meeting spot for St. Mary’s College students.

  • 30 Rock Addict
    PHILOSOPHY / POP CULTURE IRWIN SERIES EDITOR: WILLIAM IRWIN EDITED BY Should you let Oprah be your guide? 3O J. JEREMY WISNEWSKI Is immoral behavior no laughing matter? Can Devon Banks choose his sexual orientation? ROCK Is that a dealbreaker? Hello, dummy. Wait! Don’t stop reading. This is really important. I’m dying. Okay, that was a lie. It’s about this TV show I love. I recently discovered that I’m a 30 Rock addict. From Jack Donaghy’s management advice to the things Liz Lemon has to do just to get a show on the air every week, 30 Rock raises all kinds of ethical dilemmas and philosophical issues. Okay, it’s not like reading Wittgenstein, but it makes you wise. Like a genetically manipulated shark. Every essay in 30 Rock and Philosophy AND takes some of my favorite scenes from the show and uses them to explain important philosophical issues. Even the most esoteric ideas become understandable when PHILOSOPHY Kenneth is involved. So if you watch the show for Tracy’s antics, Dr. Spaceman’s medical advice, or just to look at Tina Fey, read this book and you’ll walk away knowing about the Frankfurt School, Aristotle, and Jack Donaghy’s sordid love life. Now that we have that out of the way, I have an idea for a business that could make us both millionaires. One word: fl oppy disks. J. JEREMY WISNEWSKI is an associate professor of philosophy at Hartwick College in Oneonta, New York. He coedited X-Men and Philosophy and Twilight and Philosophy and edited Family Guy and Philosophy and The Offi ce and Philosophy.
