We get it

Posted on 30. Nov, 2007 by John Roblinsky in Cougars Everywhere

In the seven months since I last wrote, there was an exponential increase in cougar references in mainstream media. There are even whole shows about them like “Age of Love” and “25 Hottest Cougar Celebrities”. It seems like for any sitcom to keep pace they must reference cougars at least once a season and last night was “30 Rock’s” turn. I would say it was only an average episode, but there were some funny moments which I’ve clipped below.

The thing I found most interesting about this episode was that they had such a smooth Cougar Hunter. In the second scene of the clip below, we find out that the Hunter is only 20 and he lied about his age when first introducing himself to get a date with Liz Lemon (Tina Fey). Unfortunately, later in the episode the Hunter has Liz pick him up from his mom’s house and she gets bugged out by how close in age his mom looks to her = weak game.

I’m positive that a Hunter who has enough game to pick up a TV exec in her office while serving her coffee wouldn’t then have her over to his mom’s house after just one date, but it is TV. We appreciate the show for being unique in highlighting the skills of us cougar hunters who in this case created a cougar out of Liz Lemon. Enjoy.
