James "Toofer" Spurlock is a recurring, then regular character portrayed by Keith Powell on 30 Rock.

Toofer is an African-American writer for TGS.

He has an aversion to the stereotypical aspects of black culture that he believes are embodied by Tracy Jordan.

Therefore, his primary purpose on the show thus far seems to be as a foil to Tracy Jordan. And to get picked on by Frank as well.

Frank: [to Toofer] Wow, that was embarrassing for you.

30 Rock Quotes

Jack: Are you familiar with the GE tri-vection oven?
Liz: I don't cook very much.
Jack: Sure... I gotcha. New York, third-wave feminist, college-educated, single and pretending to be happy about it, over-scheduled, undersexed, you buy any magazine that says "healthy body image" on the cover, and every two years you take up knitting for ... a week.
Pete: That is dead on!
Liz: What, are you going to guess my weight now?
Jack: You don't want me to do that.

[to Liz] I like you. You have the boldness of a much younger woman.

Jack
