Liz Lemon vs Kermit the Frog
Not head to head mind you, after all I love these characters way too much to risk losing either even in a hypothetical head to head (quoth Peter Griffin: "Nope, I never risk the Fett man, even on a sure thing"). My friend Andrew sent me this brilliant link which unearths the most nefarious of conspiracies, and yet one I wouldn't dream of trying to stop. The thesis of this incisive blog post is that most of 30 Rock is ripped off from the Muppet Show.
While the evidence is not exactly super-compelling, there are a ton of similarities which just serve to make me love both shows more. You should follow the links to Muppet-ized 30 Rock episoides, but even more you should watch the Muppets' appropriation of 30 Rock!
And if that's not enough, watch Tina Fey, the "Bookaneer" - adorable.
