Recurring sketches Fey has penned include the biting satires of “The View” and “Sully and Denise,” featuring Jimmy Fallon and Rachel Dratch as the Bostonian teens.

In the summer of 2000, Fey joined “SNL” fellow cast member Rachel Dratch in a critically praised sketch comedy show “Dratch and Fey” at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in New York City.
