Talented but not particularly nice actor Alec Baldwin may have met his match in the form of Greg Garcia, the creator/executive director of My Name Is Earl. In a recent New Yorker interview, Baldwin complained:

NBC hasn’t done a [bleep]ing thing to help this show ['30 Rock'] at all . . . They’ve gone out of their way to wring the last drops out of ‘My Name Is Earl’ and ‘Scrubs.’ Those shows are done! They’re cooked! Yet they do a one-hour episode of ‘Earl.’ You’ve got to be [bleep]ing kidding me.”

Garcia promptly replied in a manner that showed he’s not Alec’s daughter. In an interview with Defamer, he called Baldwin “unlikeable” and “distasteful,” before adding:

[Baldwin] sounds like a psychotic narcissist . . . Instead of blaming NBC, I think Alec should consider that some people in America may not want to watch a man who cusses out his own 11-year-old daughter on a phone message.”

Garcia went on to explain that one-hour episodes of Earl got better ratings than thirty minutes of Earl followed by thirty minutes of 30 Rock and added helpfully: “It’s called math, stupid.” Alec’s daughter Ireland should have this guy by her side as a dialogue coach in any future conversation she has with her father. Hell, Garcia could have walked through the door right in the middle of that tirade in Glengarry Glen Ross and reduced Baldwin to a helpless, quivering mass within sixty seconds.
