30 Rock: Jamaican Accent

[lodie38]

hahahahaahahahaahahahahahahaha



[Kritilane94]

This is just wrong,Lol She even went Irish at one point.We don't sound like that, this was more like a trini accent. However, it was funny hearing her try. I still love Tina though!

[mattymacg09]

@Kritilane94 How ever did you pick up that she was going Irish? Could it have been when Kenneth came right out and said "you're going Irish"... how very astute of you

[525rockchick]

"ur going irish!"

[4N6dub]

30 Rock - Why keep trying?

[ITHEREONETHATHASNT]

Having been to jamaica never im pretty sur ethey DO end most conversations with "cool runnings bobsled"

[IliveinMA]

I didn't get "Nurse Jamacaia" for a while

[corsair831]

"Cool runnings man. Bobsled!"

[LightYagame100000]

I love Lemon and Kenneth ! they're the best characters !

[purplehazedkisses]

What does bobsled mean?

[averyjays]

@purplehazedkisses Nothing.. it's funny because Jamaica is famous for having a bobsled team even though they have no snow, they made a movie about it.. I think that's what Cool Runnings is. I could be wrong though

[Nonregional]

@averyjays Yep. Cool Runnings is a Disney movie about the Jamaican Olympic bobsled team at the games in Calgary.

[kieranpreissler]

Cool runnings, man. Bobsled!

[xxCradle6xx]

If you say Beer Can in a British accent, it sounds like Bacon in a Jamaican accent.

[shunshine77]

BOBSLED.

[dabom88]

Cool Runnings man, bobsled.

[iLikeGummybearz]

I always thought Jamaican and Irish accents were close.

[snowflakechic]

Bobsled!

[L337Zealot]

this is my favorite scene from 30 rock "cool running mon, bobsled"

[neoAlchemist684]

i'm American, and JME brought me here! "Sh - Huh ya mout'!"

[Ani0227]

bob sled!

[DaftSwank]

"You're going IRISH!!!" LULZ!!!!

[Spectic]

The most perfect way to say goodbye.

[PdotAffects]

JME brought me. Still funny lol.

[MagicAuror67]

'Cool runnings man, bobsleigh'

[Trashcansam123]

Bobsled? I don't get it.

[BSidnyrB]

@Trashcansam123 It's a reference to the movie "Cool Runnings" :P Lol

[Trashcansam123]

@Trashcansam123 Oh...now it makes sense.

[ledhicks]

hahaha i love tina. she can do any accent and making it soooo hilarious!

[MrEricrockinout]

[dimsimlord]

[JamaicanGal321]

[Seregfaroth]

COOL RUNNINGS, MAN. BOBSLED.

HAHAHA HOLY FUCKING SHIT

[LAINE94CCC]

I'm Jamaican... that's so wrong

WHO SAYS COOL RUNNINGS AT THE END OF SENTENCES

AND CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF... WE DON'T SAY YAH MON AT THE END OF EVERY SENTENCE

You people need to stop encouraging this garbage

WE DONT SOUND LIKE THAT

[kevdem18]

@LAINE94CCC

I think it was meant to be funny and in order to do so you have to play up to the stereotype. Im jamaican as well in case your wondering.

[avprox777]

@LAINE94CCC Apparently, Jamaica doesn't know what comedy or satire is.

[TheDistrictSleeps]

@LAINE94CCC it's a joke. it's funny because she's doing it all wrong. you're supposed to laugh. how stupid would it be if she spoke perfect jamaican?

[deftonsita]

That's not jamaican, i could understand her.

[mooonwalkerx3]

@deftonsita believe me it's jamaican. lol

[smartbunny]

@deftonsita YES YOU DO YOU ALL SAY COOL RUNNINGS! ALL OF YOOOOU!

[IheartToxicWaste]

lolwot XD

[LiamRomK]

Cool runnings mon, bobsled!

[lukepleaseshutup]

That's how I'm going to say goodbye on the phone from now on.

[zimmawoman]

[EkseteraEksetera]

[jared986le]

[sjwrites7]

Nurse Jamakaya fi da win!

[ChineseCommando]

Haha this is one of the best moments of 30 Rock

[TheHuntress144]

Cool Runnings was a great movie.

[bmil67]

later in the episode the jamaican receptionist says bobsled. XD

[Steely1919]

You're going Irish!

[IxnayOnT3hHombre]

[DayTripper1025]

[AyeFrosty]

[kosib93]

[stryker7x]

UR GOING IRISH LOL

[Shika4eva]

LOOOL Bobsled :)

[mcballification]

I'm actually studying to become a dentist...and i want her as my receptionist!!

[SmallSkaterFreak]

yoooo i cracked up when he said "yourrr going irishhhh" LMFAO

[zEquilibrium]

can some1 explain the bobsled part?

[diegugawa]

@zEquilibrium this punch, is related to the Disney movie called "Cool Runnings". The movie is about a couple of Jamaican athletes that after not being able to compete in the olympics as runners, they decided to enroll and create the first bobsled Jamaican team. Its a funny movie from the 90's. Basically a classic... John Candy is in it too.

[potato332]

@zEquilibrium she said "cool runnings. bobsled." because cool runnings is a movie about a jamacan bobsled team

[karl858]

man, it's really hard to purposefully slip from jamaican to irish and back again. I know they were probably in different takes, but still. Props to fey

[youdontunderstand]

Oommmggg hahahahahahahahahhhaha bobsled

[Jeicawb]

When she goes to the doctors office later and the nurse actually says bobsled i think i cried

[jolidiamantnoir]

I'm Jamaican. I think this is hilarious.

[nedgravelshirt]

anyone else notice that she's kind of just saying "jamaica" weird when she says her name?

[calzanator]

Sanka died in this clip!

[ProFecY17]

lmao i keep rewinding this shit everytime i watch it, love this skit..love tina fey

[michkay1]

I love how it glides to easily from Jamaican to Irish.

[gqban912]

@michkay1 Jamaican accents are derived (in part) from Irish accents

[GraigAntonio]

@michkay1 most people that copy the accent do that, and irish man trying to speak without his accent may sound jamaican

[Khryssie03]

Bad accent....an i'm a jamaican btw an we dont say "mon" afta every word -.-

[WalterLiddy]

@Khryssie03 That's the point. It's funny because she's doing it so badly.

[Khryssie03]

@WalterLiddy well as a Jamaican i dont find it funny

[euphoricrose]

@Khryssie03 Well I'm also Jamaican and I find it HILARIOUS.

[Shadoessa]

@Khryssie03 Lol It's supposed to be terrible. That's the point of the joke hahha.

[TimW405]

@Khryssie03 I don't know if you watch the show, but Liz Lemon is supposed to represent the "common racist" who thinks she isn't racist but TOTALLY IS (basically everyone can relate to being like her in some way). So yea if you thought this was inaccurate and offensive, you're right. Liz has also been racist against African Americans and a Middle Eastern man before, too (and whites, etc).

[ksb78]

@Khryssie03 get the stick out your ass and have a laugh!

[Shant91]

hahaha

[30RockSuperFans]

"He thinks that tooth might have some bad mojo in it" WE LOVE YOU LIZ LEMON! Join us at the ultimate 30 Rock fan Page on Facebook (30Rock) or Twitter @30RockSuperFans.

[OkashiiAmerican]

My parents are Jamaican.  When I hear Irish people talk. . .it kind of sounds the same. XD

[SdotChesley]

[TheYunaMa]

Hahaha, "this is nurse. Ja-mai-caya"

[jdbabyv3]

I CANT. STOP. WATCHING!!!!!!!!! LOLOLOLOL

[CitizenGatsby]

LMAO OMG

[QUHectic212]

being of Jam descent, I'll say I'm impressed by Tina but when the guys did it they sucked

[OkashiiAmerican]

@QUHectic212 Have you ever thought that the Irish accent sounds kind of similar? Just curious

[QUHectic212]

@OkashiiAmerican yeah i do, also english and spanish as well. I hear alot of my family say "Oy" , "bloody", and "uno"

[ZaoRazor]

HAHAHA!!! I AM CRYING!!!!

[Namuhana]

Seriously, I've watched this about 50 times and it's still hilarious

[Lhykosidae]

Tina Fey wins at life. Forever.

[hotlikefireee]

LIZ LEMON IS A WINNER

[ResettisReplicas]

I said "Cool running bobsled" to a Jamacian woman. Turns out they aren't all amused by that.

[dabble778]

I can't imagine a show that will ever be as funny or edgy as 30 Rock. (I said the same thing about Seinfeld)

[SmashLiXs]

grim from billy & mandy had a jamaican accent

[alextoob1]

Haha You're going Irish

[PinkFloydrulez]

kenneth's face at the end is the best

[Impactnation909]

[Jwalter421]

I love Kenneth! lol

[dwbear7]

You're going Irish!

[FakeGenesisSol]

LOL bobsled xD

And how do you go from Jamaican to Irish...?

[wolfheart19891]

DIS IS NURSE JAMAKAYA!

Gets me every time!

[spicypepperprincess]

Hahahahaha... that's a Irish accent. Jamaican accent? Your joking! Lol!

[sesomyort]

@spicypepperprincess To me the Irish say a lot of things similar to Jamaicans and I'm Jamaican. I think she sounds Guyanese.

[spicypepperprincess]

@sesomyort Sure, Jamaicans have British roots..

[nfahwi]

@sesomyort Jamaican Patois is derived from a combination of the Irish and Scottish versions of English, British English and West African languages. Sometimes it shocks me to here the Irish and Scottish speak. They seem to also have a similar sense of humor and laid back style like as JAs.

[nfahwi]

@nfahwi *hear*

[TDIShearGenius]

I bet only like 10 people who actually saw this know what cool runnings is >.> I love Tina either way though xD

[gilad3495]

I wanna hear more of Liz's Jamaican Accent.

[Avelina007]

STUPID THAT'S NOT JAMAICAN ACCENT HAHA DEM FOOL YUH FUCK

[HeSaidAFunnyGirl]

Instead of saying good-bye anymore, I'm just going to say "Cool Runnings, man, Bobsled" and anyone that doesn't get obviously isn't cool enough to watch this show!!

[jaraandrew100]

If you could PLEASE upload the clip where Liz is married to jack and she's holding a press conference and she has the boston accent that would be awesome! :D

[lovinu2024]

[kimthehottest]

[Daintydennoyo]

[hotlikefireee]

[nmngirl]

[obesecatgirl555]

The cool running comment was about the movie Cool Runnings, which is about a Jamaican bobsled team.

[nictse500]

Can some one explain to me "cool running, man, bobsled" to me? Is this a jamaican thing?

[betts3985]

@nictse500 it's from a movie called Cool running about the first Jamaican bobsled team.

[olgap35]

Kenneth... smiling... "Bobsled!"

[impazeldalinkin]
