Saturday Night Live, Season 27

Saturday Night Live (SNL) is a weekly late night 90-minute (including commercials) American comedy-variety show based in New York City which has been broadcast by NBC on Saturday nights since October 11, 1975. It is one of the longest-running network entertainment programs in American television history. Each week, the show's cast is joined by a guest host and a musical guest who usually performs a song prior to its album's release.

Tina Fey:
The cover story of New York Magazine this week is "Baby Panic". This goes perfectly with the other magazines on my coffee table - "Where Are The Babies?", "Why Haven't You Had A Baby?", and "For God's Sake, Have A Baby!" Thanks, Time Magazine, just what I need - another article so depressing, I can actually hear my ovaries curling up. According to author Sylvia Hewlett, career women shouldn't wait to have babies because our fertility takes a steep drop-off after age 27. And Sylvia's right - I definitely should have had a baby when I was 27, living in Chicago over a biker bar, pulling down a cool $12,000 a year. That would have worked out great. But Sylvia's message is basically that feminism can't change nature - which is true, alright. If feminism could change nature, Ruth Bader Ginsberg would be all oiled up on the cover of Mac - but she's not. Ladies, there's no reason to panic, though. It's out of your control, anyway. Either your cooter works, or it doesn't. My mom had me when she was 40, and this was back in the 70s, when the only fertility aid was Harley's Bristol Creme. So, waiting is just a risk that I'm going to have to take. And I don't think I could do fertility drugs, because, to me, six half-pound translucent babies is not a miracle. It's gross. I'd rather adopt a baby, I don't need a kid that looks like me. I was an ugly kid. I looked like a cross between that chick from the Indigo Girls and.. the other chick from the Indigo Girls. Not a cute kid, alright. Dratch, Poehler, Maya? how do you feel about author Sylvia Hewlett?

Rachel, Maya, Amy:
We hated Sylvia Hewlett!

Rachel Dratch:
Yeah. Sylvia, um, thanks for reminding me that I have to hurry up and have a baby. Uh, me and my four cats will get right on that.

Amy Poehler:
My neighbor has this adorable, cute little Chinese baby that speaks Italian. So, you know, I'll just buy one of those.

Maya Rudolph:
Yeah, Sylvia, maybe your next book should tell men our age to stop playing Grand Theft Auto III, and holding out for the chick from Alias.

Rachel and Amy:
Yeah.

Tina Fey:
You're not gonna get the chick from Alias!

Maya Rudolph:
Yeah, why don't you just shut up and put a baby in here! [pointing around her crotch]

Amy Poehler:
You guys want to go and, uh, stare at Ana some more?

Maya Rudolph:
Yeah!

Rachel Dratch:
Okay!
