Tina Fey, reminding everyone that while others may use the Weekend Update desk, she & Poehler own it. Forever. With a little explanation. Che & Jost are killing it this season. I go for weeks without watching but I'll always go back & check the news. I'm a little hit or miss with Colin; he's improving.
But Tina & Amy own that desk in a way no one ever will. They can walk back in for 3 minutes at the drop of a hat & it fits them like a glove. They raise the comedy stakes & the game of anyone around them.
I'll never deny they wouldn't exist without OG Jane Curtain. I'll always adore & respect her. I'm old enough to remember when SNL started up.
For sure they learned from her but they were & are game changers.
Attention should be paid.
