I really should have spent the better part of today compiling every hilarious/sad/true quote about women and aging Tina Fey has ever written for 30 Rock into one big hunk of finely aged night cheese, but instead I’m going with a gratuitous shot of hunky Jon Hamm with hooks for hands and this rather devastating barb from Alec Baldwin/Jack Donaghy. “I’m 50. To put it in perspective, that’s like 32 for ladies.” Happy birthday, Tina. If Frank downloads another one of those low-frequency ringtones designed to make people in your peer group wig out, just run away. Bring wine.
What would you gift Tina Fey for the big 4-0?
Happy birthday my queen. You are an inspiration to anyone who likes to laugh and likes to make other laugh.
talent
No talent. Supremely overrated!
and what have you done to make you such an expert?
Watched her crappy show.
Oh please! This woman is 45 if she’s a day.
Hiro Kitty? Wow, two crappy pop culture references in one!
Happy 40th, Tina!
The Best of The Larry Sanders Show dvds.
Where do you think she got all of her “30 Rock” ideas?
some…sure. same as MTM and Murphy Brown. all? no. never saw any characters with hooks on Larry Sanders.
a cheescake and a sandwich
More night cheese, obvs. I even have a special place in Greenwich Village that has the best night cheese.
Thank you, Tina Fey, for inspiring my night cheese/royal blue Slanket love. And thank you for first showing the world that Jon Hamm is hilarious (AND dreamy in glasses…sigh).
I think his hosting gig on SNL came first? Still, many thanks for Drew Baird, Tina Fey.
I’m with Tina!
Tina deserves multi-congratulations for being the most sought after comedian today…her Sarah Palin is better than the real thing!!!
“Sought after” by whom? Not people looking for comedy.
Perfect!
Brett must be a horribly immasculated individual.
Or someone who thinks Three and a Half Men is the height of comedy.
Linn and Orville are living proof about Fey’s homosexual following.
Duh, Astronaut Mike Dexter.
A full night of sleep! Lady is busy. I can’t complain though, because I’ve loved pretty much every project she’s helmed. Happy, 40th, Tina! Now go work on your night cheese.
A check for $24.95 so she can indulge in some late night Kabletown “porn for women.”
and some more night cheese to top off the evening.
thank you for making being dorky seem cool. And thanks for standing up for smart girls. And thank you for not being ashamed that you were a virgin until you were 24. And thank you for making comedy writing seem cool. And thank you for being a role model. And thank you for being funny and for writing Mean Girls and for your spot on Sarah Palin impressions and for winning more Emmy Awards then you know what to do with. And happy birthday!
I’ll never understand EW’s hangup about giving this over-exposed, highly overrated, unfunny mediocre actress/writer all of this unneeded attention.
it’s common for entertainment magazines to run articles on multiple Emmy winning writer/actresses.
My guess is there’s a lot you don’t understand, KC.
I understand perfectly that there’s alof of easily entertained sheep around here.
Like John Belushi said, women just aren’t funny. Tina Fey’s the rare exception.
