They have to. There is no other explanation for the random things that end up on 30 Rock. I hadn't thought about it much until today, but when I look back at some of my favorite episodes, there have been a lot of my favorite things slipped in there. And so I think Tina Fey is reading my mind. Let me lay out my case:
1) Al Gore -- The first episode I ever saw was the one with Greenzo, the superhero who was out to save the environment. And who guest starred at the very end? Al Gore. And in case you aren't aware, I'm obsessed with Al Gore. I got to shake his hand at a book signing and it was probably the biggest event of my life.
2) Midnight Train to Georgia -- I also love the Gladys Knight and the Pips song "Midnight Train to Georgia." My friends play the Pips in my car and we have sing-a-longs. So what song did they spoof when Kenneth the Page decided to head back to Georgia? "Midnight Train to [motherfuckin'] Georgia!" I know! It's crazy!
3) Sauce -- And I don't mean booze here, people. I have this habit of adding 'sauce' at the end of words and sentences, like creepsauce or sillysauce. So what does Liz Lemon say when she is trying to adopt a baby? "I need all of you to act normalSAUCE!" Yes! Normalsauce! Come on. That doesn't just happen.
6) United Nations -- Early in the season, Liz happened to try and date a guy who worked at the United Nations. What's my dream fucking job? Working for the United Nations!!!
4) Jon Hamm -- I am fairly in love with Don Draper on the show Mad Men. In fact, I am very in love with Don Draper, who is played by Jon Hamm. And right when I really need a Mad Men/Don Draper fix, who do they have star in a reoccuring role as Liz Lemon's love interest? JON HAMM!!! Freaky much?
5) Liz -- Yeah, I have a lot of personality traits in common with Liz. Awkwardness, love for cheese, dorky dance moves that I insist on doing in public. My mom wants me to write as a career, but I'm pretty sure that if I did, I'd end up a real life Liz Lemon.
Yeah, see what I mean? This stuff doesn't happen by chance, people. I'm pretty sure Tina Fey is reading my mind right now.
