What I'm Watching: 30 Rock (Season Premiere)

30 Rock: Season 3, Episode 1 "Do-Over" (B+)

Much as I'm excited by this show's return, I didn't go quite as ga-ga for this episode as others did. It's still a whole lot of fun, though. Highlights include Jack getting multiple promotions within one day and Liz talking about her annual sex guest. Megan Mullally was a fun guest, and her performance underscores this show's superiority over predecessors like "Will & Grace" where guest stars were flaunted and dominated the show rather than casually appearing in the episode. NBC is promoting the show as if it's like "Will & Grace" with the guest stars, but hopefully they won't be too distractingly showy.
