Will Farrell is starring in Land of the Lost and here is a sneak preview of the preview.

I was at the La Brea Tarpits one of the days that Will Farrell was filming scenes to the movie.

Sadly, we did not catch even a glimpse of him, though not for lack of trying. I tried to see if he was around anywhere, maybe taking a break with his kids, taking in the sights, but no.

It's alright, my kids thought it was cool anyway.

Tina Fey is back as Sarah Palin and Will Ferrell reprises his role as President Bush on tonight's SNL weekend update. The opening skit is a funny one, set as Governor Palin's first meeting with President Bush.

I'm almost going to be sad when the election is over, it's been fun to watch SNL and laugh again.

Tina Fey "You Ignorant Slut"*

Tina Fey, you should be ashamed of yourself. You have single handedly ruined Sarah Palin's reputation. What, with you copying her almost word for word, you have turned half of the nation against her.
In all seriousness though, Tina Fey's impersonation of Sarah Palin can have an influence on the voters perception of Sarah Palin and turn them away. It's called the "Tina Fey" effect.
I think it's interesting how much a pop culture show can sway the public, whatever the issue. Political scientist Jerald Podair told the New York Post: "Presidential impersonators do influence elections, and in this one, Tina Fey is well on her way to ruining Sarah Palin's political career. In a political culture that takes its cues from popular culture, a good impersonator may be worth a million votes."
Crazy, isn't it. She's so good at it though, we don't want her to stop.
