..seriously..as if we couldn't guess..

So, they actually did a comparison of the East Coast and West Coast versions of "30 Rock" to see which coast came out "ahead". Hmm. Can you guess which?  Please note, this isn't every assessment, as I could care less what else happened in between. In some cases, the West Coast came out ahead, but, ultimately the East Coast won "hands down"..and I credit that to Macca-boy, himself. Take a look:

The Big Cameo
30 Rock ripped the band-aid in the opening scene when Liz (Tina Fey) acknowledged that anything could happen on live television. For the East Coast that meant Paul McCartney dropping by Jack's (Alec Baldwin) office to use his private bathroom. For the west coast? Kim Kardashian. Advantage: East Coast.

Closer
Though Kim Kardashian gets points for making a joke about breaking a toilet, the reappearance of Paul McCartney was still the tops. And only the East Coast was treated to the surreal sight of Jack and Pete (Scott Adsit) making out as the curtain closed. Advantage: East Coast.

The Verdict
East Coast, hands down. Brian Williams was a huge boon to the latter broadcast, but there's no arguing with the superiority of McCartney over Kardashian. And, chronologically speaking, you've always got to tip your hat to the original.

Damn straight, yeah? ;)
