Here’s the numbers for the first week of 30 Rock’s Season 3 DVD sales.
30 Rock - Season 3:
Units Sold: 83,902
Sales: $2,642,074
30 Rock placed 8th for the Week only loosing to Grey’s Anatomy (in it’s 2nd week of release.) Full chart here.

And for comparison here’s the first week of 30 Rock’s Season 2 DVD sales:
30 Rock Season 2
Units Sold: 39,129
Sales: $1,056,065

I’m just a nerd like this.  Twice as many DVDs in it’s first week is a good thing!

Note: These are only numbers for their first weeks in release while they remained on the Top 20 chart.  When they fell off their sales were no longer posted.  If anyone has a total number of DVDs sold figured, I’d be interested to  see it.

Here’s a look at how well 30 Rock did in reruns this summer.  I’ve added The Office rerun numbers where applicable for comparison.

More summer ratings under the break: (more…)

Well hello kids! It’s me, Shark Eyes! Yes, I actually exist! Crazy huh?

So what I’m here to say is that I am taking over for the Summer. Matt and Moonvest (yes, he exists too) have abandoned me yet again and have left me in charge. If you guys have been coming to the site for awhile, you’ll remember that I did this last summer too. I guess Matt feels I can handle it, since nothing really happens over the summer, besides Emmy Nods, which I’m pretty sure I can handle! I just wanted to give you all a heads up. I’m going to do my best to try and find anything worth posting. If you guys are looking for anything specific, you can judge nudge and prod me into doing it for you.

If you have any other ideas as well, shoot them my way! I’m not as electronically savvy as Matt is, but I will do what I can! I’m going to try and update the Joke Directory, because you all have done such a great job suggesting stuff for that! But any other stuff you all are looking for or what you want the site to do, let me know! That’s all for now!

Pregnant Cornbread is finally catching up with the times.  We’re now on Twitter!  You can follow us and keep up to date with the latest 30 Rock news.  We’ll be twittering updates and news from the site so you can always stay in the know.

Or if you don’t twitter, that’s cool too.

That’s all for now.  You can all go back to your daily lives.   (After you start follwing us, of course.)

Today marks the one year anniversary since PCB started.  It’s really hard to believe that it’s already been a year.  We just wanted to take an opportunity and thank you all for coming and helping to make PCB great.  Thank you!

To date we’ve had over 142,000 page hits and over 77,000  visitors!  PCB has gotten over 600 comments (and our spam blockers have blocked over 8,000 pieces of spam.)  We get more and more visitors every week and we’re excited that people are starting to comment and use the site more and more.

One area we feel that could use a little work is discussion after episodes.  Especially since now we know Tina likes to read fan’s responses to episodes, we’d like to see more going on over at the episode page after new shows.  So if you come by here after an episode airs to get quotes or what not, please take some time to share what you think.

Finally, we’re always interested in your feed back and suggestions for the site.  If you have any ideas for PCB on what we can add or make better, please don’t hesitate to let us know!

Thanks again for visiting!  Here’s to at least another year (and hopefully many more!)

Update 9/17 - NBC posted this press release announcing Oprah’s guest appearance.  It quotes Tina saying, “Oprah is very funny in the episode and we are beyond grateful to have her. Also, I would like to announce that we are officially best friends.”

Oprah’s real best friend, Gayle, says the Oprah/Tina combo is “Hilarious. H-I-L-A-A-A-R-I-O-U-S.”
