Talk about starting off the season with a bang!
Tina Fey returned to Saturday Night Live this weekend to join her pal Amy Poehler in the season's opening skit, a send-up of Alaska governor Sarah Palin and Sen. Hillary Clinton that has fans everywhere talking, and laughing.
"Good evening, my fellow Americans," says Tina in Sarah's recognizable Alaskan accent to open the sketch, prompting laughs immediately."I was so excited when I was told Senator Clinton and I would be addressing you tonight."

"And I was told I would be addressing you alone," Amy responds.
The skit goes on to poke fun at the womens' portrayal in the media, highlighting Sarah's "MILF" image, with Tina mugging and posing like a cover girl, and Amy saying she's surprised to hear that people "suddenly care" about the the role of sexism in the current campaign.
