John SchneiderHOST
We have some major departures that we talked about at the end of 31, about saying goodbye to some of these cast members that were really crucial to the last few years of the show.
John SchneiderHOST
Uh, the main one is Tina Fey, who would go on to star and produce 30 Rock starting October 11th, 2006, so just less than a month away from the 20-year anniversary of that show premiering.
John SchneiderHOST
Uh, she not only was A prolific head writer at Saturday Night Live, but also was anchoring Weekend Update.
John SchneiderHOST
So just losing her from the show, you can really feel like this is a new era when she's not there this year.
Sammy KHOST
Uh, what we got after that is really, for me, like my, [chuckles] you know, again, my, my origin story, my Weekend Update anchors.
Sammy KHOST
Like, I feel like the sort of dynamic that we're gonna get between Seth and Amy is, uh, just something I, I love and have a lot of nostalgia for.
Sammy KHOST
So as much as it is, it obviously is sort of a, quote-unquote, "big loss" for the show to sort of say goodbye to Tina Fey, I mean, what we got, you know, again, both behind and in front of the camera after her departure is, uh, you know, something that makes this season really special.
John SchneiderHOST
Yeah.
Marci ShoreGUEST
And I, I could feel that then.
Marci ShoreGUEST
And then I very naively thought, you know, when, you know, when they lost, I thought, "Okay, like, thank God the danger has passed." And, and I thought at the time that Tina Fey, as some of you may know, who is a Saturday Night Live actress who was doing impersonations of Sarah Palin, which were brilliant.
Marci ShoreGUEST
I thought she should have gotten the Nobel Peace Prize.

Jason GregorHOST
Ooh, the next one's ti- a toughie.
Jason GregorHOST
Uh, could I do a tie? I'm gonna do a tie between Tina Fey and Will Ferrell.
Connor HalleyHOST
[chuckles] Well, I will go with Will Ferrell.
Connor HalleyHOST
That was, like, the kind of my introduction to SNL-
Michael KomanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And there's one highlight...
Michael KomanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I, I don't know why I remember this so fondly, but, uh, Tina Fey was hosting one year, and she w- we had a big, uh, monologue piece that we did for her birthday.
Michael KomanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Uh, and it was just kinda sprawling.
Michael KomanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And, like, anyone you asked would suddenly be there, and it was like Lin-Manuel [laughs] was just-
Carol BurnettGUEST
And
Ben MankiewiczHOST
I'm listening to you with and the way she talked about you, and the way Rachel Trach, who was a guest there, talked about you, and the way Tina Fey feels about you, and all these other female comedians.
Ben MankiewiczHOST
And I know that I've seen you enough times when people use the word icon or legend, you'll say that just means you're old or whatever, right? But to that generation of beings, of these brilliantly funny women, and plenty of men too,
John IrelandHOST
Yep.
John IrelandHOST
And it's a coin flip between Tina Fey and Kate McKinnon, and I'm going to
Steve MasonHOST
go McKinnon.
Steve MasonHOST
Ding.
Steve MasonHOST
I love Phil.
Steve MasonHOST
He was on it for a long time, did great impressions.
EmilyPANELIST
And I understand why you do the Tina Fey versus, you're going to be kidding, because Tina just didn't do anything besides We Can Update and she was a writer.
EmilyPANELIST
But she was so good.
Pam AshbyHOST
Yeah.
MarkHOST
She and Tina Fey.
MarkHOST
What a dynamic duo there.
MarkHOST
Yeah.
KateHOST
I
BQGUEST
have all these, like, photos of Tina Fey on my computer saved as, like, K1, K2.
KateHOST
My good friend, Prog, if you're a follower of old school Melee, you'll remember the commentator, Prog.
KateHOST
He calls me Lemon.
Fat BoyHOST
That's a good question.
Fat BoyHOST
Tina Fey might be older, which she'll take over if Lauren Everett retires, I would imagine.
Fat BoyHOST
Let's keep it going for another SNL cast member.
Fat BoyHOST
I
LiaHOST
But I feel like there was a time where Ricky – no, was Ricky Gervais doing it? No, I think he might have been doing the Golden Globes or the Oscars, maybe one of those two.
LiaHOST
But then there was also the Amy Paul and Tina Fey combo for some award show they did a couple of times.
LiaHOST
And I'm wondering if they did one of the Emmys and they were the last one.
LiaHOST
That would have been my guess.
