Barack Obama cancelled his guest appearance on Saturday Night Live due to Hurricane Ike, but Tina Fey did don the “Tina Fey” glasses to take on the role of Sarah Palin…
Of all the impersonations on SNL that has to be the hands down best.
It was a pleasant surprise to see her on the premier. I thought Phelps did well which was also nice to see.
The opening skit was the best thing about this episode. Fey and Poehler were perfect (Poehler always is perfect as Hillary Clinton — she gets Clinton’s mannerisms so well).
The rest of the show was mediocre at best and Phelps was way out of his league. He may be the worlds greatest swimmer at this moment in time, but he needs to stick with the day job.
I’d have to agree with Jimmy, though that opening skit was a tough act to follow. There seemingly was nowhere to go but down no matter what they did…
