Almost...
2.5/4 stars

Tina Fey being one of my favorite ladies, with her sharp, silly-but-never-stupid writing skills bringing her to crush-level, I wanted so much more from this...her name under "Screenplay by" for instance. Ah, but her mere presence was enough for me to give it a go, and though it is in no way perfect, Baby Mama does have many redeeming qualities - and many laughs (Especially when compared to other female lead comedies.)

Fey and Poehler are a sparkling duo, they manage to keep up that great chemistry through a story that clunks every so often. All other characters seem incredibly minor - with Sigourney Weaver and Steve Martin almost, but not quite getting to the laugh-level they should have with their unusual roles. The love-story element was also missing something, and felt a little too quick or "thrown in." I couldn't help but think these issues would have been absent had Tina been at the keyboard.
