‘Saturday Night Live’ preview: Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, and Bruce Springsteen are ready

Are expectations high for the winter finale of “Saturday Night Live” this weekend? We’d say so, judging from what some of the enthusiasm is right now just to see a promo featuring Tina Fey and Amy Poehler together with musical guests Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.

The real reason Tina and Amy work as one of the best comedy duos in the business is strictly due to their ability to play off each other so well, and understand one another’s sense of comic timing and enthusiasm. There isn’t really much in this promo that is completely revolutionary, but it’s still hilarious for whatever reason to see Tina and Amy draw big belly-laughs for making what is effectively just a “who’s the boss?” joke.

We imagine that for the majority of their sketches this weekend, Tina and Amy will appear together. Not only that, but they will probably do something on “Weekend Update” and bring back a number of their other former cast members. The timing seems especially right at this point to bring back Seth Meyers, given that it has been more than a year since he departed for his late-night talk show, and he really has not made too many return appearances since. Sure, we imagine that you could also see Jimmy Fallon, and maybe Tracy Morgan will turn up given that Tina came out to support him earlier this season.

Of course, check back this weekend for a full review of this episode, complete with a variety of different highlights!
