I agree on what you say about the cold open. The writers were clearly playing with the general opinions and expectations and surprised us. And I laughed. A lot. If that idea works for 30 Rock, which has been criticised for not being fresh since season 3 but became more popular again as it became even more…

@avclub-42763705844bf5e2af4abd6c898f8dcb:disqus I always call 30 Rock "30 Fels."

Grüße auch von mir! I wish I knew more German SNL fans.

Sorry to be a smart-ass, but "Die Stadtneurotiker" without the English plural -s is the correct name. Other than that: marvellous name!
