Fey returned to Saturday Night Live for an opening sketch featuring her and her former ``Weekend Update'' co-host Amy Poehler, who continues her role as Hillary Clinton.
The NBC comedy show's season premiered with a ``nonpartisan message'' where the two pleaded for an end to sexism in the presidential campaigns.
Many say Fey looks like Palin, a comparison the comedians alluded to. In the sketch, a frustrated Clinton broke down and complained about Palin's splash onto the national scene and her ``Tina Fey glasses.''
A few digs were also made about Palin's experience. As Poehler's Clinton bragged about her foreign policy experience, Fey exclaimed ``I can see Russia from my house!''
