You're tuned to the good stuff
The setup
The premise
Out walking with her earbuds in, Amy discovers Tina Fey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Patricia Arquette picnicking in a park and is invited to join her idols. They explain that they are celebrating the date the media has decided Louis-Dreyfus can no longer be cast as an object of desire, and trade the warning signs: being cast as the mother of a former love interest, auditioning for Mrs. Claus, losing remakes of their hits to younger stars and being handed nothing but shapeless sweaters by wardrobe. When Amy asks whether men ever face the same cutoff, the women burst out laughing. Far from mourning, they relish the freedom to stop keeping up appearances, then send Louis-Dreyfus off across a pond in a rowboat for a mock funeral that turns out to be her ride home.

Honey, men don't have that day.
Behind the scenes


A little extra
Head writer Jessi Klein has said the premise grew out of writers' room conversations about how celebrity magazines portray actresses as they get older.

Patricia Arquette
You guys, you never slept with him. You don't know what you're missing.
Amy Schumer
No way!
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Hi, are you lost?
Amy Schumer
Um, I'm sorry, I just, I love all of you. I can't, I can't believe you're here. You're like literally my heroes.
Tina Fey
God, you look familiar. Are you that girl from the television who talks about her pussy all the time?
Amy Schumer
Yes, that is, yes, thank you.
Patricia Arquette
How fun, well come sit. Please. Come on.
Amy Schumer
Yeah?
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Come talk about your pussy over here.
Amy Schumer
Is it someone's birthday or...?
Patricia Arquette
Oh. Kind of the opposite. We're celebrating Julia's last fuckable day.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Yes.
Salud. Whoo! Whoo-hoo-hoo!
Amy Schumer
I'm sorry. Did you say Julia's last fuckable day?
Patricia Arquette
Mm-hmm.
Amy Schumer
What is that?
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
In every actress's life, the media decides when you finally reach the point where you're not believably fuckable anymore.
Amy Schumer
I mean, how do you know?
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Well, nobody really overtly tells you, but there are signs.
Tina Fey
You know how Sally Field was Tom Hanks' love interest in Punchline, and then, like, 20 minutes later, she was his mom in Forrest Gump?
Patricia Arquette
Or you might get offered a rom-com with Jack Nicholson where you're competing with another woman to fuck him.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Or I just had an audition for Mrs. Claus.
Patricia Arquette
You're kidding me. I read for that part.
Tina Fey
I read for that, too.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
You did? Hey, who got that?
Patricia Arquette
J.Lo.
Tina Fey
Oh, she'll be good.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
She's gonna be really good.
Patricia Arquette
Really good.
Tina Fey
Or you go to a movie set, you go to wardrobe and the only thing they have for you to wear are long sweaters like cover you up head to toe kind of thing
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
where like the poster for your movie is just like a picture of the kitchen
Tina Fey
yeah
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
with these very uplifting and yet vague titles like whatever it takes or she means well that kind of thing
Patricia Arquette
right another common sign is when they start remaking your best movies with younger more fuckable actresses i guess are remaking boyhood with selena gomez at my part
Tina Fey
that's gonna make a lot of money
Amy Schumer
i don't understand you're all so fuckable
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Like, believe me, no one was more surprised than me that they let me stay fuckable throughout my 40s. And the fact that it continued into my 50s, this was just like, thanks, but I thought that Us Weekly had made some sort of a clerical error or something.
Tina Fey
Tell me about it. If you shoot a sex scene the night before your birthday, everyone is like, hurry up, hurry up, we gotta get it before midnight, because they think your vagina's gonna turn into a hermit crab.
Amy Schumer
Uh-huh. Well, is there anything you can do to delay it?
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Yeah, I mean, you can try, but it only makes it worse. Like those real housewives. They try to look young, but then they end up looking like a purse that melted in a car accident.
Tina Fey
Yeah. They look like when a kid draws a face on its hand.
Amy Schumer
But what about men? Like, who tells men when it's their last fuckable day?
Patricia Arquette
Honey, men don't have that day.
Never.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Well, they're fuckable forever. They could be 100 and, like, nothing, but white spiders coming out, but they're fuckable.
Patricia Arquette
I didn't get this commercial last week for AARP because the director said I was too old to play Larry King's wife.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
I heard that Bruce Willis just got engaged to a girl who is 24 years younger than him, and I heard that she is an actual baby lamb.
Tina Fey
What? Really? Let me Google it.
Amy Schumer
So, wait, are you guys, like, bummed at all?
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
What? No! Are you kidding me? I'm thrilled! Ecstatic! I mean, I don't have to deal with this, maintaining this anymore. I mean, it's just such a godsend. I can grow my pubes out. Look at this. See this? Ice cream's been sitting out here for an hour. You want to know why? What's this, baby?
Chug, chug, chug, chug, chug, chug, chug, chug! Whoo! Oh! Hi-oh! Whoo!
Tina Fey
All right, you know what's next. Let's go do this thing.
Amy Schumer
Where are we going?
Patricia Arquette
To do the ritual.
Tina Fey
And then we put her in the boat, and we push her out into the water, and we drink champagne to salute how fuckable she was for so many years.
Amy Schumer
It's nice.
Patricia Arquette
Yeah, it's really nice.
Cheers. Cheers! Cheers.
Amy Schumer
And where is she going?
Patricia Arquette
Home.
Amy Schumer
Wait, what?
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Tina, no!
Patricia Arquette
Seriously, relax. She's just going to her house.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
I got to get clothes. I got to get out of the dryer.
Tina Fey
OK, I was right. She's an actual baby lamb.
Patricia Arquette
oh can i see it
Amy Schumer
oh good for them
Patricia Arquette
i'm I'm out.
Amy Schumer
OK, bye.
Tina Fey
I'll see you.
Amy Schumer
What are you doing?
Tina Fey
I'm just going to go home and wax my beard.
Amy Schumer
When When does that start?
