A community for the fans and critics of the show 30 Rock.
Discussion of the show, pictures from the show and anything else 30 Rock related.
Rules:
- All DubVee instance rules apply. See the sidebar at https://dubvee.org. Those are pretty comprehensive, so we don't really need to add much to those.
- No politics outside of what's referenced on the show. Let's leave that drama elsewhere since there's plenty of it.
- All posts must be 30 Rock related or adjacent. You dummies are awesome, so I don't think I've ever had to mod any posts for this, but codifying it for good measure.
- Less a rule and more of a guideline, but please try to provide alt text if your instance + client combination support it. If not, then please try to make an effort to provide a description of any image posts in the post body.
- Don't make fun of people for misusing dated cultural references. Are we all cowabunga on this?
- No talking about Krang. It would be a waste of time to talk about Krang on ~~television~~ the internet.

I've got a bit of source amnesia on this, but I remember I read about this in either an interview or maybe Fey's book??
The source said that the crinkly book was just really, really loud on the microphones, and they changed it to the giraffe. I forget why they didn't re-shoot the scene, but I'm imagining they left it in as a gag.
That reasoning does make sense for why they wouldn't stick with the crinkly book. In the S7 bonus features, Fey had said that they had to change Tracy's costume down to just one gold chain, as well as change the aquarium in his dressing room to a terrarium, because they were just too loud.
Yep, I remember reading the aquarium changing to a terrarium in the same article/book chapter too for that reason.
