    The one with the coffee

    Episode 10 of Season 2 doesn't have a proper title, since it was the last episode written before the WGA strike in 2007 and the writers weren't able to come up with a title in time. Nevertheless, the lack of an official name doesn't detract from its main virtue: it's funny as hell.

    As usual, the main chaos is to blame on Jack and Liz: he is supposed to make a deal with some German businessmen but is too busy trying to patch things up with C.C., so Liz, who is also trying to buy an apartment of her own, has to talk to the Germans, which results in her inadvertently selling NBC to them. Tracy, on the other hand, brings a coffee machine to work, leading to Kenneth becoming addicted to caffeine (not a good thing) and deciding it's better if he moves back to Georgia.

    Episode 210 works for the usual reasons (script, Fey, Baldwin, Tracy), but earns a few extra points by having additional strengths: firstly, any scene with a language mix-up in any sitcom is always funny (Exhibit A: the Friends episode where Joey tries to speak French); then there's Jack McBrayer, who has some of his best Kenneth moments here. Plus, it ends with a rather touching musical number. And it manages to stay touching despite being performed by Tracy and Jenna. Now that's impressive!

    Another Excellent Episode!

    This is the tenth episode of the second season of 30 Rock and this episode is famous for being untitled due to the WGA's strike back in 2007. But nonetheless, it's incredibly funny and entertaining due to the usual suspects. Jack McBrayer as Kenneth really stole the show here. Also, this episode ended on a musical note, and one that can be a little emotional.

    In this episode, "Episode 210," Jack asks Liz to buy some TV shows from the Germans in order to spend more time with C.C, but Liz is too preoccupied with buying real estate. Meanwhile, Tracy brings a coffee machine into the office, and Kenneth is instantly hooked on the caffeine and becomes a totally different person.

    Overall, this is an excellent episode that is flying high in jokes and features great performances from everybody, but Jack McBrayer stole the show. I just kept cracking up when he was on his caffeine-high and how that wanted him to leave for Georgia. I rate this episode 9/10.

      Deutsche Stimme: [On television] The machine is mankind's madness and disfigurement. Industry castrates art. The only honesty is in suicide.

      Jack Donaghy: I can't watch any more of these German sitcoms!
