Part 2 of our Bad Comedians series, we focused on Tina Fey and her influential carer. We discuss the cultural impact of her work, particularly 'Mean Girls', '30 Rock' and 'The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmitt' and the harmful stereotypes of people of colour she routinely utilises for humour. We also share our favourite pop culture moments from the week which include Jenna Marbles and Julian Solomita's engagement, Grimes's new tattoo and the death of the iconic Helen McCrory.
