The Hollywood Reporter brings news that hit NBC comedy, 30 Rock, received a 0.0 rating or less than 5,000 viewers for the show’s German premiere.

Granted, the poor rating can possibly be excused by the circumstances. The channel that picked the show up, ZDFNeo, is in its infancy. The rating was taken on the first day the channel has existed and little advertising was done. 

I find it funny that any German TV station would tout such an America-centric TV show as “the flagship in its new relaunch.”

Also in the article, THR.com apparently thinks "Germans don’t laugh easily." I guess they don’t watch those silly VW commercial’s.
