TV: 30 Rock

Tonight on 30 Rock, what was spoken:

Tracy Morgan: And the Friday after that, there's an orgy over at Elizabeth --

[Tina Fey interrupts him.]

And tonight on 30 Rock, what appeared when using closed captioning:

Tracy Morgan: And the Friday after that, there's an orgy over at Elizabeth Hasselbeck's.

Damn! Someone forgot to tell the closed captioners that NBC chickened out of making that joke.

By the way: loving the new Thursday sitcom block on NBC. My Name Is Earl, The Office, and 30 Rock, all with "super-sized" 40-minute episodes tonight. I haven't been so excited to watch two straight hours of sitcoms on NBC since The Cosby Show, Family Ties, Cheers, and Night Court occupied this same timeslot, about 87 years ago. And with Scrubs joining the group soon, it gets even better. Wow, four great sitcoms on Thursday night. Is it the 20th century?
