I”m gonna go out on a limb and say that not so smart one was probably Sarah Palin in high school.

Tina Fey is awesome.

Seriously, do you have any idea of how huge the american movie and TV industry is worldwide? The fact that this site deals mostly with US celebs is due to the fact that a vast majority of the celebs in the western world are america, not that there are only amerians on here.

I’ve heard of 30 rock, but my interest in TV is second to none and I know nothing about it.

Oh, and I’m Norwegian and very rarely need to google anything here.

Ah see, you could have just said “I’m a Hannitypoint-spouting Conservative” and we’d have understood why you don’t like her.

I dunno, I’ve known dozens of rocket scientists (I used to live near the Lockheed-Martin headquarters) who couldn’t make a funny joke to save their lives. Comedy really does take intellect, which is why Dane Cook and “Carlos” Mencia are so tragically bad at it.

Making her even that much more like Palin… say what you will about her (utter lack of) political ability or her (utter lack of) intelligence, but Palin’s got a great ass.

Fey is just beautiful through and through however.

Yup, and the first funny woman on SNL since Gilda Radner left the show, and I am so not kidding.

Nora Dunn, Jesus Christ that woman was never funny in her entire LIFE.

“Mr. and Mrs. Fey’s little daughter Tina, she’s so smart and has a great sense of humor, you should ask her out sometime!”

“Lea’ me alone, Maaaaa!!”

I’m still waiting for someone to tell me when SNL was as side-splittingly hilarious as people claim it was. have you ever watched entire episodes from the 70’s?

By: paws4thot

paws4thot — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 13:52:35 +0000

The Goons, the Monty Python team, the Goodies, Lenny Henry, Robin Williams, Billy Crystal, Jo Brand, Ellen de Generis….

NB, I’m not claiming they all write all their own stuff, just that they have all written some of their own stuff.

Eddie Izzard writes all of his own stuff, and Jon has a writing staff, that he is a member of. So I did.

The important distinction is that Tina Fey is FUNNY.

So the assumption is that Noel Coward, Dorothy Parker, Mort Sahl Robert Benchley and Oscar Wilde were not particularly bright and had nothing of value to offer society? Interesting. And erroneous.

To explain without being a butt…

Tina Fey was probaby the typical nerdy girl in High School, not very interested in being all fancied up with cosmetics and sexy clothes. Now, she’s obviously at LEAST a cutie pie.

Lesson: That nerdy girl in high school would have loved you forever if you had just given her the chance, and now she’s a rich babe. So don’t lose out on the chance to have a wonderful woman in your life later just because she’s not popular now.

If someone needs to explain this to you, you really should date someone smart (not that they’ll date you).

It’s about as funny as Fey’s material. I think it simply means “When the librarian takes off her glasses, she might be hot, so give her a chance LOL!”

Her face is so photoshopped there to make her more attractive that I barely recognized her at first glance.

By: WhateverBuddy

WhateverBuddy — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 20:11:57 +0000

I agree with you- and the “I don’t get it”, followed with “No, you don’t, and I doubt you ever do” is the same thing btw.

Dennis Miller was doing liberal cheap shots on SNL when Fey was still in college. Not like she started that.

I just don’t get the caption. Is it telling people in high school/college that they should be dating the smart people? Or is it knocking her husband, Jeff Richmond?

someone please explain it to me without being an @$$. Thanks.

PS – if a caption needs explaining, it’s not funny

By: 142978

still worth a shot. you’re certainly not wasting any effort by trying to google it, if you’re dedicated enough to post comment anyway.

Try naming some comedians who write their own stuff.

By: paws4thot

paws4thot — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 15:24:59 +0000

And then you’d still be relying on her name being correct and correctly spelt; guess what, one or both of those has “not happened” in the recent past.

I mean, I recognise her from 30 Rock cover art, but didn’t know her name.

when I watch old episodes (even from the first season) I don’t laugh any more or less than I do for current ones. it was always hit-or-miss.

but you’re just being an asshole for shits and giggles, so it’s moot.

By: 142978

142978 — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 15:13:14 +0000

first, it probably takes less effort to Google her name than it does to ask who she is, wait for a response, then defend yourself for not knowing who she was in the first place.

second, the comment I replied to didn’t specify what country they were from, so you’ll forgive me for assuming that someone who knows a website dedicated to mostly American celebrities would also know American pop culture.

this probably sounds more argumentative than intended. meh.

Seconded. I like pratfall humour too, but subtle and intelligent will get me coming back, and back, and back,… like watching re-runs for the 4th time.

Sorry, the glasses don’t make her smart – she IS smart. You may not like her comedy or humor, but she is very intelligent.

If by frazier you mean Frasier, then what the hell is wrong with you?! Frasier is hilarious, perhaps it doesn’t have someone falling over a banana skin every 10 seconds but hey, some of us enjoy subtle, intelligent humour.

I just have to pipe up and say that I haven’t watched SNL in many years, but those Palin sketches were dead-on and hysterically funny. For some of them (particularly the Katie Couric spoofs) she lifted exact quotes from SP. Sorry, but if you’re going to be in the public limelight running for the second highest office in the nation and you can’t even form a complete intelligible sentence, you will be made fun of and Fey did it brilliantly.

Having said that, yeah, I don’t get the whole 30 Rock craze. I’ve tried watching it, I just don’t think it’s very funny…

I think calling people who don’t share your opinions dumb is certainly offense meant.

That’s like me saying to you: “You’re an ignorant close-minded jerk with poor taste in comedy. No offense.”

Please ignore Notsomuch, he’s obviously been listening to Dane Cook and Carlos Mencia, who create “real” comedy.
