Season 1 Review:
“30 Rock: A One-Time Special” absolutely excels at what it is and does. It is a perfect commercial for NBC Universal, a perfect commercial for television, and a perfect commercial for people who believe they are too cool to watch commercials but not too cool to watch television reunion specials. ... A blatant hour-long commercial for television is technically the natural progression for the story 30 Rock told, which allows the special to somehow reach an even higher level of meta inception than it already had.

Season 1 Review:
The special didn’t allow for that same kind of self-mockery, and it created an odd fissure between the presenters and their presentation; between “30 Rock” and the upfront itself. The “30 Rock” reunion gets the job done. ... With all our favorite faces plus a bunch of celebrity cameos (thank goodness all that Mandy Moore hype actually led somewhere), made for an enjoyable reminder of just how great “30 Rock” was when it was firing on all cylinders.

Season 1 Review:
Its title is an ad for NBC. Kenneth’s page uniform is an ad for NBC. About 30 percent of Jack Donaghy’s lines in any given episode could be reasonably construed as ads for NBC. About 70 percent of Kenneth’s lines also count. At its best, though, 30 Rock always seemed to be enthusiastically participating in corporate synergy with one hand, and doing its best to dismantle it with the other.
