30 Rock: Season 2 DVD
To whom it may concern,
It may come as a surprise, but commentary tracks featuring only one person tend to be sparse and boring. Commentaries by guest stars who had five minutes of screen time discussing entire episodes by their lonesome? Even more boring. It’s great that about half of the episodes on the 30 Rock season two set have commentaries, but there’s not much value to hearing people struggle to say anything of interest. Because as much as I love Will Arnett, I have no interest in hearing him breathe, point out funny gags and do short improv bits, interspersed with long gaps of silence. It goes without saying, the couple available tracks with two people are infinitely more interesting and insightful. Check out Newsradio and Futurama commentaries for an idea on how these things should work. Less people desperately trying to think of things to say and more cast members and writers inspiring each other into discussion about the episodes, please.
Cheers.
