For seven seasons, Liz Lemmon has taken us on a journey from the acquirement of Tracey Jordan for The Girly Show (TGS) to the take over of NBC to her eventual marriage as Princess Leia. Her hilarious antics have taken us behind the scenes through the interworking of a sketch comedy series and all the conflicts that happen beyond the stage.
Her constant confrontations with Jack Donaghy about the direction of the show which led to an interesting banter that stretched from politics to personal life and is thought to be the back bone of the show. Jack's cool and cunning ambition to always come out on top made him the perfect counter part to Liz who is always running around franticly trying to keep the spinning plates going so everything runs perfectly.
The over dramatic Jenna Maroney and the extremely charismatic Tracey Jordan kept the show interesting with Jenna's crazy antics of trying to reamin the star of the show and Tracey's spur of the moment lifestyle. These two different takes on actors gave Liz plenty to deal with all while trying to live her own life and find love. Very few times do we ever see Liz outside of the workplace and when we do, all the action points back to her job making if feel like she is married to the show.
30 Rock will end tonight, but with repeat airings on different networks, the comedic styling of this show will remain for time to come.
