The Trouble With Tina

Tiny Fey's trouble is with the ratings for her NBC comedy show, 30 Rock. But she hopes her recent appearances on SNL will provide a boost:

"I hope this ends up helping 30 Rock," allows Fey, referring to her Sarah Palin sideline the past few weeks on Saturday Night Live. But she's keeping her expectations modest. "I would like the audience to go up just enough so that people don't have to refer to it as 'the ratings-challenged 30 Rock' anymore."

Tina and her 30 Rock character (Liz Lemon) look a lot like Liz Spikol, who writes The Trouble With Spikol, a blog about mental health. TTWS was featured in Psych Central's Top Ten Bipolar Blogs 2008.

In January 2007, Tina Fey was asked, “Do you ever get confused with Philadelphia Weekly columnist Liz Spikol?” You can see her answer this question (and others) in Tina Fey Apologizes for Looking Like Me.

So will Liz Spikol go as Sarah Palin for Halloween?
