Tina Fey reprised Sarah Palin on "Saturday Night Live" while hosting the NBC sketch comedy show Saturday night, mocking Palin's new life as a television personality.

Wearing a classic Palin updo, a black leather jacket, and an American flag pin, Fey previewed a new series of programming on the fake "Sarah Palin Network."

The programs included "Tea Party Wheel of Fortune," "Are you Smarter Than a Half-Term Governor," "Dateline: To Catch a Levi Johnston," and "Hey Journalist, I Gotcha!" which used re-edited news footage to show Palin outsmarting Katie Couric.

Fey first imitated Palin on "SNL" in September 2008 as the ex-Alaskan governor was running for Republican vice president. The skit became NBC.com's most-watched viral video, garnering 5.7 million views by the following week.

She made four appearances in 2008 as Palin, earning her an Emmy last year for guest actor. She was also voted 2008's AP Entertainer of the Year.

Palin recently launched the program "Real American Stories" on Fox News Channel and will soon begin production on "Sarah Palin's Alaska," an eight-part series for TLC.
