A One-Time Special

This 30 Rock "reunion" special is a cynical marketing ploy, but I won't say there's nothing worthwhile in it. It starts decently and has some good jokes here and there. But as others note, it is mainly an ad for a new TV website, and while the plugs are just dribbled in at first, by the end it is pretty much 95% an ad.

It is heartbreaking to see all these talented, successful people willing to prostitute their respected, irreverent series for a payday. I know times are hard, but are they *that* hard for Tina Fey or Alec Baldwin? I mean, come *on!*

I do give the series credit for making something pretty cohesive within the limits of social distancing. I do not recommend bothering with it.

One long NBC Universal commercial with commercials about NBC Universal. I definitely CAN not watch.

Not even Liz Lemon can save this mess.

I usually fast forward through the commercials. If I had done that with this, I wouldn't have seen anything. The entire show was an ad for Peacock -- so much so that several times when they cut to an actual commercial, I couldn't tell the difference. The after the credits bloopers and outtakes were funnier than the rest of the show combined. A real waste of time.

This was such an insult on an otherwise amazing show

As much as I was excited for an reunion of 30 Rock, what seemed like an reunion actually turned out to be just an non-stop hour long commercial for NBCUniversal and their new streaming service, Peacock. With constant jokes leading into commercials and the storyline involving new shows on the streaming service, this was not the reunion we were promised and even with the added celebrity cameos and appearances from 30 Rock cast members, I can clearly see that this was an advertising plot for Peacock and it was a reunion that could not be enjoyed whether you had Peacock or not.
