Oh gosh I empathize with you. I only watch The Office because I really love Steve a lot and I floved Michael/Jan because they were so sweet and awkward and you know, not dumb and insane (respectively). Very upset with what they have done to this ship because it had so much potential for both of them to change for the better and be happier people and instead they did this absurd and unnecessary twist. The worst part is I can't see how they can turn it around. TPTB have really driven the ship off a cliff. I'm not a Jam shipper so I don't share their joy with 70% of TO's audience. I'll continue watching because my Steve love is great but definitely not as enthusiastically as in the past.
But Jack/Liz! I think the last 2 episodes were really shippy. Especially the way Jack acts around Liz, I do think that Jack is a little infatuated with her. He wants her to succeed financially, he isn't angry with her at all even when she insulted him because he knows she didn't mean it, he bumps Dennis immediately when he finds out that she bought Dennis dinner. I think his actions have definitely been a lot more than just mentoring. That being said, I don't want it to happen at least until season 4. I don't think I can take it if they ruin it like what happened to M/J and it would be dangerous for the show because the J/L relationship is a HUGE part of what makes 30 Rock so awesome. Little things like the look are enough for me right now.
