"Scrubs" was one of few one-camera sitcoms that came up with a decent justification for its live episode. I doubt I'll ever see the 30 Rock live episode (east or west coast feed), but the consensus seems to be that it didn't help the show and they really didn't take advantage of the format. > I am one of the few that liked both 30 Rock and S60, and would have liked to > see both survive.

(but > then, we would have been deprived of The Good Guys) I think they got too bogged down in the religion stuff (through the main female lead) at a time when it wasn't popular to talk about it. They tried to bring the show's focus back during the excellent "Nevada Day" episodes with John Goodman (which really served as a second pilot episode -- and an even better one than the original pilot that the critics adored), but by then they were living on borrowed time. -- Kevin M.
