‘Sisters’ Tina Fey Talks C-Word: ‘SNL Weekend Update’ Colin Quinn Said “See You Next Tuesday”

Oh Sugar Honey Ice Tea. Any good 30 Rock fan remembers the episode where lutz called Liz a c--------runt. Now, Tina Fey has revealed the real life inspiration for “The C-Word,” during a recent interview with Howard Stern. It turns it was, former Saturday Night Live Weekend Update anchor, Colin Quinn who gave the Sisters star the old See You Next Tuesday.

During a recent interview with Howard Stern, Tina Fey revealed that it was former Weekend Update host Colin Quinn that used the dreaded C-Word that inspired the 30 Rock scene:

“I was trying to help him with a show he was working on [and] I think his anxiety about the writing of the show spilled over.”

However, Tina Fey was not so sure why Quinn left the word on a voicemail, adding:

“I couldn’t even guess why. Like, usually when someone calls you that, you’re like, ‘I know what I did.'”

Ultimately, Fey and Quinn made up and are now on good terms.

Quinn admitted to his wrong doing on Twitter, posting:

“Statement: It's all true. I have used profanity when I've been angry at people. When I was wrong ( as with Tina) I've said sorry to them.”
