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:
- 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.
- No politics outside of what's referenced on the show. Let's leave that drama elsewhere since there's plenty of it.
- 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.
- 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 :)
- Don't make fun of people for misusing dated cultural references. Are we all cowabunga on this?
- No talking about Krang. It would be a waste of time to talk about Krang on ~~television~~ the internet.

I used to think that what happened there was:

- Fred corrected her

But now I am realizing that what actually happened was probably:
- Liz got the two confused
- Fred corrected her
- Liz took mental note of the correction so she does not repeat the mistake
- Next time she saw Fred, she genuinely thought this was not the same guy she had the interaction with earlier. She instinctively wanted to call him Fred, but made the conscious decision to call him Rick
Every time a welcome booklet says this, I read it in Bev's slurred voice:
