Tina Fey looks back at her early days at 'Saturday Night Live' as a writer in the new Peacock docuseries 'SNL50: Beyond Saturday Night.'

Then-newcomer Tina Fey was ordered to have a word with Saturday Night Live guest host Sylvester Stallone over his words ― he wasn’t pronouncing them clearly enough. Reminiscing in a recent instalment of SNL50: Beyond Saturday Night, Tina described her awkward debut as a writer in 1997.

The sketch comedy show is celebrating 50 seasons with two documentaries and an upcoming prime-time special that reflect on its standing as an American institution.

Each episode of the Morgan Neville-produced series examines a different aspect of the comedy institution, with stars including Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, Bill Hader and many more.

There are books — the best of which is still “ Live From New York: An Uncensored History of Saturday Night Live ” — and countless movies, including a 2010 documentary and a 2024 feature, both titled “Saturday Night,” and a slew of comedies derived from popular “SNL” sketches, notably “The Blues Brothers” and “ Wayne’s World .”

Chappelle has hosted “SNL” three times to date and will soon be a four-time host. That will leave him one hosting gig shy of the elite Five-Timers-Club, a group that includes stars like Steve Martin, Tom Hanks, and Tina Fey.
