VIDEO: The Real John McCain With Tina Fey as Sarah Palin on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE

As always, Tina Fey was genius tonight on Saturday Night Live as Sarah Palin, but why John McCain agreed to do this sketch is beyond me. Enjoy.

Tina Fey and Will Ferrell as Sarah Palin and George Bush? It doesn't get much better than that.

VIDEO: The Real Sarah Palin on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE (with Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin!)

The real Sarah Palin showed up on SNL this weekend, alongside her doppleganger Tina Fey and Fey's Thirty Rock co-star Alec Baldwin (Mark Wahlberg showed up as well for good measure). I'm not sure why Palin agreed to do this -- these sketches are brutal, and I can't imagine this appearance will help convince anyone she is actually qualified for the position she has been nominated for. Still...they are pretty funny!

There's a press conference and a rap...oh my!

RUMOR: Sarah Palin Will Appear On SNL...As Tina Fey!



According to the Chicago Sun Times, vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin is considering an appearance on Saturday Night Live -- playing Tina Fey!

According to the paper, "Some key McCain staffers are content with Palin joking about the "SNL" routines on the campaign trail -- as when she scribbled "I'm not Tina Fey" on a supporter's cell phone and said she'd dressed as Fey on Halloween. But others -- including the governor herself -- think a return punch on the NBC airwaves is what's needed."

Apparently the Palin appearance may parody Fey's American Express commercials. Next weekend's Saturday Night Live will be a rerun, but it is possible Palin could appear Thursday on the first of NBC's ''Weekend Update'' specials in prime time.

Can't wait!

PS. This is the official video clip from NBC.com, so, unlike the youtube video, it actually works!

The Good And Not-So-Good At The Emmy Awards

What a totally bizarre Emmy Awards.

There were some nice surprises last night, but there were also quite a few head-scratching moments. Let's run down some of the more memorable happenings:

The Good
-30 Rock's surprise win for Best Comedy Series. It's always nice to see a quality show that is struggling in the ratings get a little awards pick-me-up

-The Sopranos taking home Best Drama Series for the final time, and the cast's bow after the Jersey Boys tribute

-Sally Field's shocker of a win over Edie Falco for Best Actress in a Drama. She fumbled her speech a bit, but she's so spectacular on Brothers & Sisters I couldn't help but cheer for her victory.

-Terry O'Quinn taking home his first award for his always stellar work on Lost.

-Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert's hysterical routine. Why didn't these guys host the show?

-Elaine Stritch is a genius. If Stewart and Colbert aren't available, how about getting Elaine to host the proceedings?

-The Wayne Brady/Rainn Wilson/Kanye West bit. It went on a little long, but it was pretty freakin' funny.

-The very funny Jamie Pressley and the adorable America Ferrerra winning their first Emmys for My Name is Earl and Ugly Betty, respectively.

The 'I Can Live With It'
-Ryan Seacrest didn't embarrass himself, but he didn't exactly make a case for making him a permanent awards show host. He had a few funny moments, but ultimately the guy is just not a comedian. You gotta give him credit, though -- the man does try.

-Katherine Heigl's Emmy for Grey's Anatomy. I probably would have chosen Sandra Oh or Chandra Wilson for Grey's, or Rachel Griffiths from Brothers & Sisters, but this is Heigl's year. Between this and Knocked Up, she's certainly become a player to be reckoned with.

-Jeremy Piven picking up his second straight trophy. It's boring, but he's deserving, so I can't really complain.

-Rickey Gervais beating out the easy favorite Alec Baldwin for Best Actor in a Comedy.

-Christina Aguilera and Tony Bennett -- was anyone else a little bored by this?

The Bad
-James Spader over James Gandolfini, Hugh Laurie and Denis Leary? Are the voters on crack? Just absurd.

-The Jersey Boys tribute. What did this have to do with The Sopranos, other than the Jersey connection?

As for my predictions, I went 2-10 (Best Leading Actress in a Comedy and Best Drama Series were the two I got right).

Wow, that's a horrendously bad average. Oops, my bad!

What did you all think of last night's Emmys?
