In our humble opinion, if you’re somewhat famous, there are three signs that you’ve not only Made It, but you’re a cultural touchstone: 1) you’ve hosted or played SNL; 2) you’ve sung an educational song or two with a Muppet or two on Sesame Street; and 3) Oprah made you cry. Heck, even Ms. Brockovich herself, Julia Roberts, hasn’t really made it by our standards. On the other hand, Tina Fey is three for three (uh, she was SNL for quite a while (here she is as Sarah Palin, followed by the actual Sarah Palin – it’s painfully funny to see how little scripting SNL had to do for that skit); here she is as a Bookaneer on Sesame Street (and the reverse – Muppets on 30 Rock!  That’s extra credit points right there); and there she was meeting Oprah on 30 Rock, which is close enough to actually being on the Oprah set of soft light and comfy couches.  Good job, Tina Fey.  You  made it.

Obviously, Jane Lynch should be part of the Tina Fey Club. Then, she should work her way up from Treasurer to President, then change the name of the club to the Jane Lynch Club. A little regime change never hurt anyone, hmmm Mr. Former President Bush, Jr.?

Regime change is hard from afar, but Jane’s tiptoeing closer: on April 7, she, along with the rest of the Glee cast, will be on Oprah. Yeah, that’s right, Oprah will devote her entire show to Glee. That’s one for three, Jane. Next up: SNL. We have a few evolving plans to organize a little drive (a la Betty White) to land her hosting duties on SNL. Muppets, we’ll be hitting up your street soon enough. Better hide your vowels.
