Nice catches. I remembered porn Liz after I posted. Totally forgot about staged reaction shot Liz and that Amy Pohler played her in the second live show.
Also, I’m just now remembering butt-double Liz:
Speaking of body doubles, there was also the time Liz jumped over the table in S4E22 “I Do Do”
Wait, are we just going to skip over 31 Rock? This is the first I’m hearing of it. I need waaaay more details. Is that 1 minute clip all that was ever made? Or did they actually make a full on show?
Because yes, I would totally believe they made at least one episode of this parody show. It’s easy to believe when you can’t believe this concept exists at all. So at that point, what barriers could POSSIBLY exist?
From reading a few articles, it seems the clip was simply a spoof, and no full episode was ever intended to be made. I gather that it exists for two reasons:
- As a lighthearted jab at Fey, who (for the first time in eight years) had reprised her famous SNL role parodying Palin a week prior
- More importantly, as marketing for Palin’s new book that we hear Dotcom complimenting here
I think the whole 1 minute “trailer” is the whole thing. The article I found on it mentions the same things as the other comment, so that’s probably right (promo for her book + jab at Fey).
I didn’t even know it existed until I was sourcing images for this post, and the one of Palin as Liz was a thumbnail for a YT video, so of course I had to click on it and probably ruin the already terrible recommendations on the homepage 🤣
The worst part about it is…I didn’t totally hate it.
How could you leave out el tejón?
Nice catch.

Because I didn’t think of it. 🤷♀️
I’m sure you did your best.
On a similar note, here are all instances of a different actor portraying a young Liz:

All that I can think of is this tool that someone posted recently:
https://thisdavej.com/copy-table-in-excel-and-paste-as-a-markdown-table/
You copy a range of cells from somewhere like Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice Calc, etc., then paste into this website, and it reformats it as a markdown table.
But myself, I am comfortable enough with markdown to just type it out manually directly into a Lemmy comment. Though for a markdown table that is relatively large (like the one above), I generally create it from scratch in a separate text editor program and then copy/paste it into Lemmy. A text editor is just a larger space to work in and has things like find/replace to make things go faster.
If you have any specific questions/problems, I am happy to help!
Thanks! I’ll bookmark that tool for later and give it a try.
Usually I do okay-ish typing them in directly, sometimes I use the table template button the app to get started, but when putting in long text like image links, it gets ugly fast and stuff starts to break.

That’s what I do, and turning off word wrap helps a lot.

In that case, I think that tool should prove very helpful. Starting off in a spreadsheet program like Excel is great for keeping things neat/tidy/readable, then you would use that tool to convert to markdown when you are finished and ready to post the table to Lemmy.
That is sort of how I manage my GIF todo list and the markdown list that I publish on Codeberg. I have a LibreOffice Calc spreadsheet that I use as my todo list, adding new ideas to it as they come to my attention and then marking them off as I complete them. Then, when I am done for the day, I have a custom Python script that I run that reads all the cells in the spreadsheet, rearranges things a bit, and outputs it as a markdown table into the file you see on Codeberg.
EDIT: @ptz@dubvee.org could possibly even build that functionality right into Tesseract, allowing you to copy from Excel and paste directly into a Tesseract textbox as a markdown table.
I think my main use-case would be a 2x4 (or 2x6 or 2x8) table with images and captions so I don’t have to use an image editor to make custom scenes. Basically I wanna take some of your gifs and mash them together into something like a 4-panel comic / scene.

Oh that would be cool. I’ll ask!
Is this c/30Rock or c/GILFisland???
