10 reasons I love Tina Fey’s “Baby Mama”

My love for all things Tina Fey is well documented and borders on obsession. I swear, your honor, I’ve been sure to stay at least 500 feet away from her, as the court order requires. So I think I’m allowed this simple indulgence. Yesterday I watched the first trailer for her new comedy Baby Mama, and, save for the unfortunate fact that my badonkadonk is still very much in place, I pretty much laughed my ass off.

Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Sigourney Weaver and Maura Tierney together in one movie? Has someone been reading my dream journal again? The premise is this: A 30-something successful single gal (Fey) longs for a baby and hires a surrogate (Poehler) who lives with her during the nine months of the pregnancy, and hilarity ensues. In case you think I’m exaggerating, please take a look for yourself. (Watch it in glorious hi-def here.) But I warn you: Ye of tiny hiney should beware, because when you’re done you could have none left.

 


Since I’m the self-admitted obsessive type, I thought I’d break down the trailer into a top 10 list of reasons I’m already in love with Tina’s Baby Mama. This in no way violates my TRO, your honor.

10. Tina’s nightshirt. I love it when women wear men’s shirts to bed — minus the men, of course.

9. The negotiations. Full service is on off the table.

8. The DMX baby. God, imagine the face it’d make if you listened to Yanni instead.

7. Sigourney Weaver. Mmmmm, Sigourney Weaver.

6. Tina’s dance. Only Tina would get down tonight by doing a festive jig.

5. The versatility of Pam. The next time I fry an egg, I’m going to have a lot more to think about.

4. The baby-proofing. When you’ve got to go, you’ve got to go.

3. The "chocolate or poop" test. This is a good way to assure your friends will never eat dessert at your house ever again.

2. The lesbianism moment. “Kate, I want you to put your baby inside me.” “I want to put my baby inside you.” Um, can I watch?

1. Tina’s many faces of incredulity.

So, what do you think? Are you ready to welcome Tina’s Baby Mama into your life come April 25?

Here We Go Again!!

In order to skip my usual cheer of TINA FEY! TINA FEY! YAY! YAY! YAY!, I'll just go to the part where I shamelessly admit to having a Tina Fey Shrine, that Tina Rocks My Socks (hard), If I obssess about her anymore, my shrink will rcommend that I never ever ever be released...... etc. The woman is just so DAMN COOL it's not funny!

Tina Fey!

What's not to love?  Her humor, writing, acting, she does it all!  Can't wait to see this one!

P.S.- Pretty ironic with the writers forced to strike she won best actress for a comedy for 30 Rock this year.  She truly is a gifted writer and performer!

Can someone tell tina fey i want to have her baby too?

fallonash's picture

Tina! Amy!

I must have watched the trailer a dozen times since I found it yesterday. I can't wait! For more lesbian-ish goodness, I have to point out the official description, though "In a comic battle of wills, they will struggle their way through prepartion for the baby's arrival. And in the middle of this tug-of-war, they'll discover two kinds of family; the one you're born to and the one you make." Doesn't that sound wonderfully lesbian-ish? I'll be right there in the theatre the day it opens!

Tina Fey & Company

That 'is it chocolate or is it poop' taste test by Tierney almost made me burst a blood vessel. One of the most clever gross-out gags since Cameron Diaz 'moussed' her hair in that movie, Something About Ew.
Also, I gotta say that Fey and Poehler play off each other so easily. I love them both, like Lucy and Ethel, Mary and Rhoda, Eddie and Patsy.

just caught..

the ending to "mean girls" (never saw it before today) so my favorite "orbital" song "halcyon" started playing and i just had to listen to it. the network played the movie back to back so i actually caught the whole thing!! thank you Tina Fey for agreeing to have anything orbital being associated with your screenplay, also i think that it is important that you're a lefty, that just futher explains the intelligence level being displayed through your work ( i find all the female lefties i've met to be more intelligent than a litttle bit.... i will make an effort to catch "baby mama" now that AE has brought it to my attention. keep up the good work Tina and AE much love from ATLANTA.  

i'm not sure if that's my gaydar or my fire alarm ringing but,its hot as hades in here......."ladyj"
