Tina Fey reflects on her challenging start at Saturday Night Live in the new docuseries SNL50: Beyond Saturday Night. Fey recalls the competitive atmosphere and tough rewrite tables at the sketch show, where writers would critique sketches behind closed doors. Despite the challenges, Fey acknowledges the value of the competitive environment and suggests it may be beneficial for the show. She also shares a humorous anecdote about giving a note to Sylvester Stallone during her early days as a writer on the show. Fey joined SNL in 2000 and has since returned to host the show multiple times, becoming a member of the Five-Timers Club.
