Tracy Morgan’s Real-Life Crazies Make It Onto 30 Rock

By Richard Lawson on April 9, 2009 at 4:08 AM

Tracy Morgan can’t lose! The gonzo 30 Rock star makes bizarre TV appearances and doesn’t get in trouble. We just laugh and love him more, and then the incident becomes a joke on 30.

Specifically, a crazy interview that Morgan did on Chicago’s WGN back in 2007 will be included in an upcoming episode of the brilliant sitcom. Not a reenactment even. Just the damn clip itself, in which Morgan calls out Oprah and lies on the news desk, pretending to be a pregnant lady. Can’t wait.

    They need to use the (arguably more bizarre) El Paso interview next. Or Tracy's outtakes from Totally Awesome.

    Honestly, though, asking if black people live in Shaumburg was the funniest part of this clip.

    I love the female anchor working the sex hair at the end of the clip. We still have Friday night. We'll hookup.

    @Dave J.: According to a census in 2000: "The racial makeup of Schaumburg was 78.78% White, 3.35% African American, 0.10% Native American, 14.19% Asian, 0.06% Pacific Islander, 1.73% from other races, and 1.78% from two or more races."

    Brilliant.

    Wow, out of ideas already? The more they feature Tracy and Kenneth the worse the show gets.
