"The Real One?..."

It has finally happened! Sarah Palin was on SNL last night, and I have to say, nice head bopping Sarah!

But I think it's great that Sarah came on and had some fun making fun of herself. If only Alec Baldwin memorized his lines... but oh well, it was still funny! And SNL recieved its HIGHEST RATINGS in 14 years. Wow!

BREAKING NEWS: SARAH PALIN MAY SPOOF TINA FEY ON SNL!


From The Chicago Sun-Times:

Take that, Tina: Palin wants to spoof her spoofer

October 5, 2008

It's looking more and more likely that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will appear on ''Saturday Night Live'' -- to have some fun with Tina Fey.

As the comedian's impressions of the GOP vice presidential candidate draw laughs from Republicans and Democrats alike, a top honcho from the John McCain campaign tells me there's a debate going on about how to respond.

Some key McCain staffers are content with Palin joking about the "SNL" routines on the campaign trail -- as when scribbled "I'm not Tina Fey" on a supporter's cell phone and said she'd dressed as Fey on Halloween. But others -- including the governor herself -- think a return punch on the NBC airwaves is what's needed.

I'm hearing some sort of Palin tweak of Fey's American Express commercials is in the works.

While next weekend's ''Saturday Night Live'' will be a rerun, it is possible Palin could appear Thursday on the first of NBC's ''Weekend Update'' specials in prime time.

Otherwise, the next orginal 'SNL'' show will be broadcast Oct. 18, a little more than two weeks before the election.

I really loved seeing the surprise guest Queen Latifah as Gwen Ifill. Jason Sudeikis was solid as Joe Biden as well, but it was once again Tina Fey who stole show! Tina Fey is so awesome!

She's Back!

Sarah Palin is back! Well, at least Tina Fey's version! Last saturday night (of course the one night I have to miss SNL and forget to Tivo it), Fey reprised her role as Palin and Poehler not as Hillary Clinton but as Katie Couric.

Though this is still funny, I loved the "Can I use a lifeline?" line, but the original Palin/Clinton sketch was better. But still, check it out!

Now, is it possible for Tina Fey to get another Emmy nomination for SNL for playing Sarah Palin? I heard of possibly having SNL hosts be campaigned for Guest Actor/Actress for next year, but with SNL cast members being placed in the Supporting catagories at the Emmys, and with the example of Tina Fey getting nominated in the Individual Performance category for her hosting stint on SNL, WHERE WILL SHE BE PLACED?

Honestly, I would say the Guest Actress spot would be a very good place for NBC to campaign Fey in for her few skits (and hopefully more) playing Palin, but could she in fact be considered in supporting, or even individual performance?

Tina Fey is my new favorite person!


I was just watching Saturday Night Live and I was so happy to see Tina Fey do Sarah Palin! I though Tina Fey was hilarious and she nailed Palin perfectly! And the same goes for Amy Poehler as Hillary Clinton! I think that was one of the funniest skits that I've seen on Saturday Night Live! I loved it! That skit right there will go down in SNL history for some of their best skits! I really hope that Tina Fey will be able to do more Sarah Palin skits later on in the season... And maybe a skit with the real Sarah Palin?!?

So basically, Tina Fey is awesome! She is one of our greatest comedic icons, especially of our time! Tina Fey is just awesome!

And by the way, once I can find the skit on youtube, I will post it!
