Also discussed on here in early March 2008, when the episode originally aired.

Posted: 4/25/08 at 11:59ammy issue with this is that unlike former snl greatness...they basically just sang the song word for word...i expect more from snl

Posted: 4/25/08 at 2:25pmI missed this the first time around, but this was the first time I got the whole "reverse love song" concept of the number.
With Clay Aiken in Spamalot, all of Broadway is singing a collective "There! Right! There!" -Me-
"Not Barker, Todd is the only person I've ever known who could imitate Katherine Hepburn...in print." -nmartin-

Posted: 4/25/08 at 3:40pmI dont think any of the words needed to be changed- they all fit. But seriously, what was up with tamborine lady?

Posted: 4/25/08 at 4:13pmAs much as I love both of them, I really didn't get this when it aired. Do they have some sort of affiliation with Wicked that I don't know about? It just seemed too random, especially since they didn't change the song. It was like they couldn't think of a monologue, so they just picked a random song...

I was looking forward to seeing Amy on SNL, but I turned it off when they did the song.
What was the point? "They hate each other because they look alike?"
It was one of the dumbest things I've ever seen on that show.

Posted: 4/25/08 at 4:17pmAmy Adams has mentioned how much she loves Wicked in interviews, so perhaps she suggested it. I'd never heard that she and Kristin Wiig were "dead ringers" for one another until that episode. I really don't see it. I think Adams and Jenna Fischer look a lot alike, though.

Posted: 4/25/08 at 4:33pmI don't think ANY of them look alike in those three pictures.

Posted: 4/25/08 at 4:36pmHa. I missed that episode. It wasn't very funny, but I thought they sounded great. I have my picks for a Wicked movie now.

Posted: 4/25/08 at 4:38pmI really liked Kristin's voice.

How about these two? Both ladies have admitted to be confused for the other many, many times.

It was kind of random but I liked it!
Obviously cut, but they never said it was from "Wicked", some people might not know that.
They did change the lights to green, though!
