Carell only stayed with SNL for a year, which was shorter than some cast members, though her run in entertainment didn’t end there.
She found work soon after, appearing on “The Daily Show”, a satirical television news program. She worked as a correspondent on the show and was part of the team during Jon Stewart’s run.

In 2011, she was cast in one of her biggest roles, when she became a recurring character on the series “The Office”, also starring her husband, Steve.

While there, she played the role of a real estate agent and the former girlfriend of Carell’s character.
