30 Rock Rocks The 2009 Golden Globes

Tina Fey Accepts Best Actress (Television, Musical or Comedy) For "30 Rock"

Tracy Morgan stole the show when accepting 30 Rock’s Golden Globe for Best Television Series, Comedy or Musical.

“Tina Fey and I had an agreement,” he began, “that if Barack Obama won, I would speak for the show from now on. Welcome to postracial America. I am the face of postracial America! Deal with it, Cate Blanchett!”

Further non sequiturs ensued, but really, what better example of why 30 Rock deserved to win (and sweep the lead comedy acting awards) could there be?

Alec Baldwin notched his second win for playing network exec Jack Donaghy; and purposely dated himself by reminiscing about how he used to bring Rumer Willis (this year’s Miss Golden Globe) juice boxes on film sets, back in the day. Fey’s hell-of-a-year continued, as well, as she notched her second consecutive win for playing neurotic TV writer Liz Lemon.

“I’ve always loved the Hollywood Foreign Press. I have all the Hollywood Foreign Press action figures,” began Fey, whose critically beloved NBC series saw its viewership inch up this fall due in part to Fey’s other alter ego, Sarah Palin. “But I want you to know that I really know how very lucky I am to have the year that I’ve had…and if you ever start to feel too good about yourself, they have this thing called the Internet.

“You can find a lot of people there who don’t like you,” she added, before wishing all her detractors the proverbial “suck it.”
