Here's to Five More Seasons

Posted: 04/ 7/11 08:50 AM ET

Gosh.

I want to take the opportunity to state that although my days on network TV may be numbered, I hope 30 Rock goes on forever. Or at least as long as everyone involved desires.

Next year hopefully won't be the last. Kenneth can run the network. Jenna will get her own talk show. Tracy will become Mayor of New York. Then resign to go raise exotic reptiles. And Lemon will go do.... just about anything she sets her mind to.

Here's to five more seasons.

Gosh - hazing is the way to go. I see you will endure your contract (difficult as it has been) and last the seasons and the league of nations that goes into a production that was created by the geeks of America and their poshies. Here's to your creator!

I still think you are more appealing than Rob Lowe. Now if I could get you to be more chatty when you are at the gym you would be perfect.

The show would not be the same without you.

Best writing on TV; only challenge for show is that you have to watch it twice to "get' all the jokes.

30 Rock is the best American comedy ever, I think, well at least neck and neck with Arrested Development.

If someone said to me "I ran into your mother at the TJ Maxx in Queens" at a funeral, I would laugh. My second favorite part, Jack when he played the evil character in the Mexican soap opera.

As others have said, 30 Rock would not be the same with Alec Baldwin gone.

The first 3 seasons of da Rock compete against any comedy show ever produced, anywhere. Lucky is the person who got to contribute, in any way, to something as hilarious and cool as this program has been.

That said, when Jack Donaghy departs, it's time to Shut It Down!

I can't wait to see what you do next! Thanks for the laughs...one of the best characters/shows on TV. I do however, believe that the time has come for 30 Rock to say goodbye. It had a great run, and better to out on top than limp its way to the end. Wow, there sure are a lot of haters out there, but I feel sorry for them...they don't understand 30 Rock because 30 Rock is a quick moving well written show. I don't understand their shows either for the antithesis of that.

Alec, you are a truly great actor and you've given a lot of people good entertainment and a good share of amusement. My best to you in your career moving forward.

I find your politics is another story altogether.

Wait a minute. I thought the Canadians bombed all the Baldwins at their mansion.

LOL - I can't help but think of that everytime I hear "Baldwin." Glad I'm not alone!

Love 30 Rock - brilliant show, sad to hear Alec's leaving though...

Please go away Al. Take your uninformed liberal ideas with you and go away. Please stop bothering us with your mindless drivel.

Nice to see your mother fanned you.

My mother passed 4 years ago, thank you.

What perhaps started as a lark for you Mr. Baldwin evolved into my favorite relationship between two characters on television since Carm and Tony on the Sopranos. Liz and Jack are so seemingly effortless in their give and take, it's really beautiful to watch. You'd be sorely missed sir. But life goes on and I'm sure 30 Rock would survive your leaving. I have faith in Tina, I think she's the best comedic writer out there right now. This brings up the question of who should replace you. Hmmm, that's a tough one. It should be your polar opposite. I know! Ann Coulter as a liberal ne're-do-well without a clue as to how effective activism really works! Then again, maybe not (wink, wink).

Why does this post deserve to be on the front page of this site? Alec Baldwin is an amazing talent, however his article is more suited for a tweet than an editorial positioned article.
