Cohen wants you to know he didn’t just scan a 30 Rock script into his computer, but rather confronted the daunting task of re-watching every episode “just for you” (nice work if you can get it?). Unlikely Words has also honored other quotable characters, like Sawyer, Hurley and Locke from Lost, as well as the despicable yet dapper Don Draper from Mad Men.
Without context, some of these aren’t as funny as they are onscreen, and the blog includes EVERY Tracy quote per episode (even the likes of “Hey, Ken.”), but it’s fun to relive those moments that had us crying with laughter or asking ourselves the question: “Do you want to hold hands with a black billionaire?” To some, Tracy Jordan may be silly, over the top, or borderline offensive, but come on, he bit into a burrito and there was a child’s shoe in it! He once saw a baby give another baby a tattoo! (They were very drunk!) And this is only the beginning — wait until he gets his EGOT.
NSFW simply because it will lead you down a Hulu/IMDB rabbit hole so deep (did you know Dot Com was in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen?!), it will eliminate any chance at productivity for the day. Will reliving Tracy’s best lines hold you over until the new 30 Rock season? What’s you favorite line from Tracy Jordan? Who else deserves the Unlikely Words treatment?
Tied for the top — “Never end a sentence with a preposition at.” and “If you wanted to hug black people, you should have become the host of ‘The Price is Right’” (or something along those lines from the Christmas ep where Liz delivers her angel tree gifts so she could see the looks on the kids’ faces). He has so many great throwaway lines.
thats one of my favorites too, sadie! i also like “here come the roofies”
“uh-oh, here come the roofies” is one of my favorites too! Does ANYone know where I can find a clip of him passing out saying this? I have been searching and can’t find it. It has to be one of my favorite parts!
“Imagine Christmas wishes shooting out your eyes….”
Brittany from Glee definitely needs the Unlikely words treatment.
I loved that article so much I wanted to take it behind the middle school and get it pregnant.
Definitely Sue Sylvester.
“That’s what religion is, KFed. Just a bunch of made up rules to manipulate people. Why don’t Catholics eat meat on Fridays? I tell you why. Because the Pope owns Long John Silver’s.”
I also liked:
“Come closer, I said in my normal tone of voice.” – to Liz
Oh I totally forgot about the Pope owning Long John Silvers! I was laughing forever after that line. I love Tracy.
I’ve seen a hooker eat a tire!
Oh, he’s evil COMMA Tracy.
[upon learning that the creator of Pac-Man has died:]
“I will eat a bowl of cherries and some ghost meat in his honor.”
Oh, and “Our basketball hoop was a ribcage! A RIBCAGE!” lol
“Here comes the fun cooker.”
To honor the great works of this man I will forever strive to live every week like it’s Shark Week.
You know the sad thing? That Shark Week line of his actually made some sense to me.
