Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, who are known for their “Saturday Night Live” sketch comedy as well as Fey’s “30 Rock” and “Mean Girls” script, don’t have writing credits on their new film, “Baby Mama” (that goes to Michael McCullers, who also directed), so did they offer any input?

Fey: I think it went how we wanted it, which was, like, he did all the story breaking and heavy lifting and writing the actual movie. And then he let us improvise our dialogue a little bit. If we had a joke, he would add it.

Poehler: Weirdly, I’m gonna get a “head of the studio” credit. I forgot to tell you.

Fey: I got “craft services removal.” Is that because I ate a lot?
