Did you catch the season premiere of 30 Rock on NBC last night? If not, you have a couple of chances tonight on Bravo to get a look at what might be the best comedy to debut this fall so far. That isn’t saying much though as all the comedies to premiere already have been pretty bad. Happy Hour and ‘Til Death on FOX are both really bad, The Class on CBS has yet to be funny at all and Help Me Help You on ABC is a giant waste of time. So many comedies yet so few laughs, what do you think of the crop of comedies so far this fall?
