Fey as Girlfriend / Amy & Tina Missed
Must Stay Awake/Must Warn Others (maybe "I See Robots") named Tina Fey its "Girlfriend of the Week" a little while back.
We can argue over just how auspicious that title really is, but we can't disagree with the analysis that led to Fey's victory.
Here's an excerpt:
"I used to love her on the Weekend Update. Amy Pohler and her were a hall of fame combo and before that her and Jimmy Kimmel were pretty funny as well. She was the head writer of the show. Imagine that. She's a girl and was in charge of all these totally goofy boy comics. That must have been rough. Tina must be able to bust balls."
Agreed.
The reason I mention the post in question is not just to give a blogospheric thumbs-up to MSA/MWO (although I suppose that's happening, too).
It's mainly because last night I was thinking about just how nifty the Poehler/Fey one-two Weekend Update punch really was. Those two were awesome doing the faux news and I miss them.
So, Tina Fey... Girlfriend of the Week for some other dude and missed by this one, particularly during Update segments.
No new scar reports at the moment. I might be close to breaking the case, however. Stay tuned....
