Palin Amused by Tina Fey's Impression of Her
Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin was amused by Tina Fey's impression of her on this weekend's "Saturday Night Live," especially as she once dressed up as Fey for Halloween. "She thought it was quite funny, particularly because she once dressed up as Tina Fey for Halloween," her spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt said, according to CBS News. Fey bears a much-remarked-upon resemblance to Palin, and they wear similar glasses. In the skit, Fey appeared with Amy Poehler as

Phelps’ Midas Touch Intact
Viewers didn't seem to mind Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton - portrayed hilariously by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler - in lieu of Barak Obama (The real one!) on SNL's season premiere on Saturday. The 34th season opener, hosted by golden boy Michael Phelps, debuted Sept. 13th with a 7.4 rating/18 share in the metered markets. That's the highest local-market average for an SNL season premiere since 2001 and an increase of 64% from one year earlier on Sept. 29th with a 4.5/11. Let's hope the voting booths expe

Do You Like SNL's Political Sketches Better Than the Other Sketches?
In the latest episode of SNL, Tina Fey's Sarah Palin and Amy Poehler's Hillary Clinton were the highlight of the show for me by far. For the rest of the episode, I waited for more great political stuff, but only got some way-too-long sketch about pizza that put me to sleep. It made me wonder if the only thing the show has going for it nowadays is the political content. What do you think? Do You Like SNL's Political Sketches Better Than the Other Sketches? Yes — The political sketches ar

McCain Camp: Tina Fey Is 'Sexist'
In response to Tina Fey's genius Sarah Palin impression on this weekend's Saturday Night Live (at right), McCain spokeswoman Carly Fiorina called Fey's portrayal "sexist" and "disrespectful." You know what? That's totally fair, because SNL never makes fun of any other political candidate. Oh wait… Fiorina went on to say that "just because Sarah Palin has different views than Hillary Clinton does not mean that she lacks substance." Fair enough — so w

newVideoPlayer("/FeyPoehler_Jez.flv", 506, 423,""); As predicted by many, Tina Fey appeared alongside Amy Poehler in the cold open for this weekend's season premiere of SNL. The two — appearing as Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton — delivered a message about sexism, an issue, Poehler/Clinton noted, "I'm surprised to hear people suddenly care about." Not surprisingly, the sketch, seen above, was both funny and painful because the things coming out of Fey's mouth were not so dissimilar to the boneheaded th

Tina Fey Rocks It With Palin Impression
About as soon as Sarah Palin hit the national spotlight, people began remarking on her uncanny resemblance to 30 Rock star Tina Fey. Fey came back to SNL this weekend and totally nailed the comedy world’s most anticipated impression, with partner in crime Amy Poehler playing Hillary Clinton. After this she has to stick around for the remainder of the campaign. It’s her civic duty. Even though we’re a “dumb” news site we can appreciate some smart lady comics making this electio

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler tackle Palin and Clinton
Tina Fey and Amy Poehler opened the season premiere of Saturday Night Live with a hilarious sketch in which the two of them portray Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton. The two were conducting a joint press conference in which they played up Palin’s lack of experience and Clinton’s exasperation at “paving the way” for a woman on the Presidential ticket, then not getting to finish the job. There was some speculation last week as to whether Fey would return to SNL to play Palin…and

SNL: Just The Funny Parts
Did anybody notice that there was a new Saturday Night Live on Saturday? JK! Everyone's talking about Tina Fey's Best Impression Ever of Sarah Palin, but there were actually three other amusing parts! Here they are in their practically Phelps-free glory (He was so bad.) 1. Tina Fey as Sarah Palin and Amy Poehler as Hillary Clinton, duh. Historic: 2. The T-Mobile commercial that creeps everyone out 5x/day finally gets noticed by the comedy world: 3. The Jar Glove: 4.

Did Bristol and Levi Have A Shot Gun Wedding?
Bristol and Levi may have tied the knot recently. That is, according to a Facebook page that has Bristol's name and picture on it. The couple got hitched and she, like any forward thinking woman may or may not do, hyphenated his name. Do you really think that she would have used that picture, out of all pictures available? I'm thinking no. I think that the couple will be getting married soon but that it will be a minute or two before they do. Sarah Palin has a lot going on and needs to get a couple

VIDEO! Watch video of Chevy Chase on Tina Fey as Sarah Palin. Chevy Chase said Tina Fey was funny as Sarah Palin but not hard enough. Chase said Hillary Clinton material didn’t belong in the sketch. “I thought it was extraordinary how well she played her and much she looked like her, I’d like her, personally i felt we didn’t need the Hillary stuff, I’d like her to go even harder. I want her to decimate this woman.” Decimate as humor? Last weekend, Tina Fey hit a homeru

McCain Camp Thinks Tina Fey Is Sexist
Was Tina Fey dead on as Sarah Palin on the SNL premiere or what?! We wish she would just come back to the cast! But that's not what McCain's camp thinks though. In response to Tina's impression, McCain spokeswoman Carly Fiorina called Fey's portrayal "sexist" and "disrespectful." She said, "Just because Sarah Palin has different views than Hillary Clinton does not mean that she lacks substance." Oh, and Amy wasn't too shabby playing Hillary the boner-shrinker either.

Tina Fey displays her uncanny ability to resemble Sarah Palin
Tina Fey did the obvious this weekend and portrayed Alaska Governor Sarah Palin during the season premiere of Saturday Night Live. While this sketch lacks the awesomeness of Gina Gershon in a bikini, it does contain a powerful message. And that message is I'd do things to Tina Fey. Although, technically, that means I'd do things to Sarah Palin, but her refusal to use any form of contraception nullifies such an arrangement. Unless, of course, she lets me "shoot my own moose." I have no idea what that means,

Rejoice, interwebs! After weeks of intense lobbying, Tina Fey finally gave America what it so desperately demanded: a full-fledged, mercilessly accurate Sarah Palin impression on last night's season premiere of Saturday Night Live. Lipstick jokes? Check. Appalling lack of knowledge about the Bush Doctrine? Check. Akaskan accent by way of Fargo's Marge Gunderson? Check, mate, you betcha. And while there was no sign of Maya Rudolph as Michelle Obama (and Barack Obama had to withdraw from his cameo in the wake
