The sixth season of 30 Rock (7 p.m., NBC/Ch. 30) finally gets under way, and things are back to normal. Which means things are insane.

Tracy is frustrated because he can't frustrate Liz no matter how hard he tries. Kenneth is preparing for the Rapture.

And Jenna achieves infamy as the mean judge on the network's talent competition "America's Kidz Got Singing."
