Likes: Pete enjoys teasing Liz about past relationships. He also likes his job as producer of TGS. Along with the rest of the male employees, he truly enjoys how Cerie dresses!

Dislikes: He was in the same boat as the rest of the cast when Tracy came along: he was not thrilled. Now it has become his job to make sure Tracy is not running amuck in New York City. Liz also points out that “Pete thinks everyone is an idiot…especially Frank” So we can only guess who else he dislikes.

Personal Life: Pete has known Liz Lemon for about ten years and often acts as her rock and confidant. She returns the favor, specifically when she gives Pete a key to her apartment after his wife becomes suspicious of the validity of his vasectomy. Although he love his wife and remains faithful to her, it is difficult for Pete to stay happy in his marriage. Since his wife became pregnant very soon after they were married in a botanical garden, they have had very little time to spend together because of their four kids. Even though Pete is afraid of his children, one can still tell he enjoys being a father. He has a dead on Elmo impression and once took his kids to the Russian Cat Circus.

Quick Facts:
-He lied to his wife about receiving a vasectomy
-He is Jewish (He must be important)
-He is superstitious when it comes to playing poker
-Once he lost his wedding ring to Jack while playing poker

–Episode 1.14 The C-Word

“That would never work. If I had told my wife in college, “Hey, I’m going to lose all this beautiful hair and fart in my sleep for the next 20 years” she never would have married me. Love is like an onion. And you peel away layer after stinky layer until you are just weeping over the sink.”
