Tracy Morgan is terribly unfunny.

I really can't stand him. He's not funny in the slightest and he stopped me from watching this show earlier. He's semi tolerable in this thanks to the wiring but still annoying...and loud lol.

I thought that at first but he ended up being one of my favorite characters on the show. Maybe give it some time to embrace just how funny/stupid he is. I've been trying to watch parks/rec but can't get past Aniz anzari's character. I'm sure I spelled his name wrong. Most of my friends love the show do I'm trying but hate him so much.

I thought this too!!! Disliked him before it, didnt care for him at the beginning. Loved him along with everyone at the end!

I wouldn't use "can't stand him" or "not funny" but he didn't seem to fit early on but later his weird quotes and observations cracked me up.

I thought similar about Kenneth early on, just as lost and clueless as Tracy but just had more self-awareness.

The heavy-set guy with the black/long curly hair and thick glasses is the only character that just didn't do it for me.

The rest of the cast was almost perfect.

Yeah Frank was criminally unfunny.

'I'm a lowlife lol funny' < premise of all of his dialogue.

Toofer was boring too.

What about the forests?...... NOPE!

Yes, I think the main problem is that his kind of humor just isn't up to par with the rest of this amazing cast. It's completely juvenile. Only a toddler could find anything that man utters funny, and frankly I feel the show UH-OH. UH-OH! I'M doing something CaLLed "BReaKing"! BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA! SNORT! HEE-HEE! GIGGLE-GIGGLE! THE AUDIENCE LOVES THIS!

I feel that Tracys eccentricity fitted quite well within the show. 30 Rock had a wonderful variation of characters. All of the characters were quite ridiculous in their own way, Liz was probably the most....normal but even she had her kooky moments.

Correct, the Most nomral would be Jack or Liz.

And Jack's quotes about business, women, ethnic groups, religions,...weren't from an established businessman but from a lunatic:):)

Completely disagree. To me, he's the funniest character on 30 Rock.

Some of the funniest lines are his. Notice how he calls Kenneth something different that starts with K every time. Notice how he pretends to be illiterate so he can take time off, and is then given gross things to read and pretends he can't read them, with a straight face.

The dialogue is rapid fire and it may help to put subtitles on. I've seen them so many times I don't need them now but I really did need them in the beginning. I still discover new jokes, asides, and cultural references every time I rewatch it. If you cough or blink you miss some!
