30 Rock: An Analysis

  30 Rock will be remembered as many things, whether it be the conversation starter of women leading comedy, the racial issues, or the comedic friendships on the show. The satirical portrayal of the people behind the camera proved to work as shown by ratings. 30 Rock's mark on comedy continues to show today through new television series written by those inspired by and those who created the sitcom.
