30 Rock: LudachristmasNBC
December 13, 2007
Sitcom

B-
In Tami Sagher's first of two 30 Rock stories, Liz's parents, Dick and Margaret Lemon (Buck Henry and Anita Gillette, and, yes, we haven't seen her in my TV collection since Match Game '73), and her brother Mitch (Andy Richter, who would not return) visit her for the holidays. Jack finds himself charmed by their naivete, including Mitch being stuck in 1985, but his mother's cynicism causes the Lemons to turn against each other. Meanwhile, Kenneth's Reverend Gary (John F. Mooney) tries to teach the TGS staff the true meaning of Christmas, which they of course misunderstand.
Frank Anello is a member of the Production Staff for the last time that year. This time writer Kay Cannon appears as a Human Table. I'm omitting Keith Powell and Judah Friedlander from the overcrowded tags.
