Werewolf Bar Mitzvah

I can’t get enough of “Werewolf Bar Mitzvah,” even though it aired a month ago. When I saw the short clip on “30 Rock” last month I laughed my head off. If I’d been drinking something I would have spit it all over the coffee table. That’s what I love about “30 Rock” – unexpectedly hilarious jokes fly at you from out of nowhere.

If you have no idea what I’m talking about, here’s the original clip (just the first 10 seconds or so). Here’s the full-length video. The original clip is funnier because it’s short and completely random.

And here’s the inevitable New York Times article.

It took three days to prepare the set, a combination of a rented spooky backdrop, branches hanging from metal light stands and carved-foam Jewish tombstones. The segment was shot on video — four takes totaling about 15 minutes, Mr. Carlock said — and was intended to look shlocky, “like Tracy was rushing to get it done in time for bar mitzvah season.”

Boys becoming men… men becoming wolves!
