• Fey's Liz Lemon sometimes seems like the sole sane person in the show's crazy world despite the fact that she is a bit crazy herself no easy task. Despite what Fey said in her SAG acceptance speech being a good straight man (or woman) takes a lot more than just being a "hat rack". --The-jam 15:26, 8 February 2008 (EST)
