"May the Force Give Me a Break Already!" That was brilliant!

[@harlequingurls879]

I'm from Philly. I didn't even know we had accents until Tina started talking and it hit me that yes, that is exactly how everyone I know sounds.

[@pathutchison9866]

Not your fault. You have a lot to do what with booing Santa Claus, throwing batteries at referees, and NOT winning championships in any sports (17 Eagles are the exception that proves the rule)

[@Candysblock]

@@pathutchison9866 Phillies won 2 World Series. Flyers won 2 Stanley Cups. 76ers won 3 NBA Championships. And as you said, Eagles won the Super Bowl.

[@waynej2608]

@@Candysblock and you had the late, great boxer, Smokin' Joe Frazier, former Heavyweight Champion of the world. He fought, out of Philly. He ran a gym there, that bore his name, after he retired. He fought Ali three times, winning their first bout.

[@emma4718]

I know she’s from around Philly, but Tina Fey does a Philly accent SO DAMN WELL🙌🏼

[@camdensubdivision3020]

Throw in a couple of 'hons" and you've got a Ballmer accent

[@chazdomingo475]

It sounds very Southern. I say wuder like that in Georgia. I draw it out a bit though.

[@srdjr6760]

@ChrisHallett83 She sounded very Baltimore there with the very pronounced Maryland "o" sound. I've never spent time in Philly, so maybe Baltimore and Philly have similar accents.

[@FrederickFokker]

I feel like Balmer and Philly are twin cities separated by baseball leagues, but DC can go get fuct. We don't acknowledge them.

[@Nina-vv3ev]

Emma nope I don’t think so

[@abbymorrison6857]

I feel like they gave Amy and Maya a basic outline and then let them improv and I am 1000 on board with that.

[@LucasSantos-xf1yf]

Maya and Kristen Wiig are such a duo as well

T1J ...sure there are, they are called men.

[@donnawoodford6641]

The comediannes that paved the way for women to enter the field: Phyllis Diller, Lucille Ball, Joan Rivers, Carol Burnett, Gilda Radner, etc. There are many more great female entertainers to come. Maya Rudolph is one of my SNL favorites.

I mean...this wasn’t funny tho lol

[@Guyyyy2027]

@@ZmannR2 just shut up lol

I presume that these people who think women aren't funny never heard of Lucille Ball who ran multimillion dollar studio ,or Joan Rivers. Comedy is a talent. It doesn't care whether it's got a vagina or a pair of balls

[@Dynamictrioiii]

Kathleen Bonczyk she is from that region. She’s got it down pat. I’m from South Jersey so she’s spot on.

[@notvalidcharacters]

You're right about that. Tina really shines in the Iggles sketch, still cracks me up every time. Know what's a real challenge? To get rid of your native accent, then go back to it again. She's impressive at that.

[@RLS-bu4bj]
