Lizzie Lemon, the main writer of the comedy program in a third season, continues to go crazy after Don Gess wakes up from his coma and tells Jack he plans to stay as executive. Jack will travel with Liz to her high school - where Liz learns, a big surprise Liz must spend Christmas without her family for the first time in her life. As compensation, she participates in the charity 'Letters to Santa' and buys gifts for poor children. Jack accidentally hit his mother with his car before leaving for Rio. Now stuck with her in New York, he decides to force the TGS crew to put on their own Christmas Eve so at least they will not have to go home.
While the series upholds its reputation as being one of the funniest programs on television, it also stays true to the humanity and heart that has made the show so loved.
The writers couldn't resist self-deprecation: in the episode's final moments, Gladys Knight herself appeared, telling everyone to quiet down so she could nap. As endings go, you couldn't ask for much more
Is the show flawless? Of course not. Yet if you can think of another network sitcom that has been as consistently and effortlessly entertaining as 30 Rock has been, well, you can just put it right in your Fun Cooker.
