I rented the DVDs last fall, and the first two or three episodes I thought--Enh, not horrible, but not great, and then BAM! Everyone hit their stride, and it is just phenomenal. It's brilliant, and it actually makes me laugh out loud consistently.
Baldwin is astonishingly good. Fey is adorable, Kenneth is lovable, even Tracy Morgan is great. I never liked him on SNL, but he's perfect here. And DENNIS? Oh my god, I love me some Dennis.
