Witty, Fast Talking, Sexy & Funny: Updates on TV Women I Love

Tina Fey gave birth to a baby girl!

From Yahoo:

"NEW YORK - This just in: "Saturday Night Live" comedian-writer Tina Fey has given birth to her first child.

Fey, co-anchor of Weekend Update, the fake news desk of "SNL," gave birth Saturday in New York to a daughter, Alice Richmond, an NBC spokesman said Monday.

"Safe, home, happy, thrilled to death," said Marc Liepis, a spokesman for the sketch comedy show. The baby weighed 5 pounds, 5 ounces, he said.

Fey, 35, and her husband, Jeff Richmond, were married in 2001. Fey has been head writer at "SNL" for five years; Richmond is a composer for the show.

She will take a brief maternity leave from "Saturday Night Live," which premieres its 31st season Oct. 1."

SNL's season premiere host is rumored to be Eva Longoria. Maya Rudolph, along with Fey, is also taking a brief leave from the show. Rudolph is pregnant to boyfriend Paul Thomas Anderson (director of Boogie Nights and Magnolia, exec producer of Rudolph's upcoming film A Prarie Home Companion).

And in other season premieres:

GILMORE GIRLS premieres Tuesday night on The WB. It's the first season premiere of the season for TV shows I watch. When we last left those loveable yet oddly Emmy-impaired lasses, Rory had dropped out of Yale and moved in with grandparents Richard and Emily. Lorelai, angry at the betrayal, took comfort from boyfriend Luke who ended up being more understanding and willing to help than Lorelai expected. In return, Lorelai proposed. And season 5 came to a close with that.

Will Lorelai say yes? (She better!) Will Rory and Lorelai remain split for a few episodes. (They supposedly do.) Will Rory end it with bad rich boy Logan? (God, I hope so! I hate that fucker. Rory needs to see the ray of light that is Marty.) And just how will Rory leaving Yale affect my favorite non-Gilmore Gilmore Girls character Paris? Paris better get some screentime. That girl is my favorite.

Watch Gilmore Girls.
