      She can't be a hack for writing and creating one of the funniest shows in the last two decades. Disagree for whatever reason but don't be a bitch about it and pretend she isn't widely influential and one of the best comedy writers of a generation.

      She's widely influential and 30 Rock is considered one of the best comedy shows since 2000. I'm stating that she isn't a hack, her writing's solid.
      Ironic to pull out the celebrity worship when you're sucking Norm's comedic phallus (I've gotta be careful).
      "It's all just capitalism, dude, she didn't actually write 30 Rock, it was actually a marketing experiment and you fell for it like a sucker." That you collapse your thinking into "lady comedy writers --> Amy Schumer is unfunny, right!!" means I'm done with you.
      Listen to some good music, or something. Relax, take in the sounds around you and appreciate and acknowledge your own breath, in and out, in and out, find a mantra all your own, peaceful, loving, Tina Fey is funny, in syllables Tee-nah Fey is fuhn-knee.

      I used to agree with all three of those comedians until I had a problem with my MP3 player once and it didn't play Robin Williams voice correctly. All of a sudden his jokes aren't funny anymore. he seemed to accentuate a lot of things that made you concentrate on certain points that would lead to ironic presentations at random intervals. if you take out the fluctuation in his voice he's not funny. that ruined him for me.
      sort of the same way if you take iconic music out of certain movies like Guardians of the Galaxy it becomes a horrific piece of trash.

    Norm gets Canadian self-deprecating humor. Anything that should be an insecurity and might hit a nerve is just eviscerated. I always thought Norm's humor worked well in the States but it works the same everywhere.
