Sad Farewell
Filed under: TV News
All good things must come to an end.
And, like so many others before her, Amy Poehler is leaving Saturday Night Live for a larger paycheck better opportunities.
Poehler says she'll be leaving SNL this season, after the November election, to give birth to her first baby.
Amy jokes in a recent interview that, "It's gonna be really hard — Boyz II Men hard — to say goodbye to yesterday. SNL was dangerous, late-night, last-minute and star-studded, but like any good drug, you need to know when to put it down."
But will she return after she gives birth and gets off maternity leave?
The answer is No.
Instead, Amy will be starring in her own series on NBC, a spinoff of The Office.
SNL better do some new casting soon.
With Tina Fey gone and Amy leaving, there needs to be some buzzworthy new star on the show!

An already weak-ass show just got weaker. Maybe Kristen Wiig and her 2 characters will be the big stars now.
Too bad ,she was the best thing on SNL!
*Call me*
seriously sad…I knew it was coming, but it doesn't make it any easier…
Damn.
I like her on SNL.
SHE IS SO FUNNY! THAT'S TOO BAD!
OMG, I love The Office! I can't wait to see the spin-off!
there is another female 'star' on the show. kristen wiig. i don't know anyone who watched snl that doesn't love her!
NOOOOO what about weekend update?! at least kristin wiig is still there and she is sooo hilarious

I always wondered if I could make it.

this show always bounces back.
may take a while but they will find someone to take her place.
kristin wiig is not funny enough to take that spot.
she has 2 characters.
Re: harrybalsac – OK HARRY BALLS, YOUR "YOUR SO FAT" JOKE ON ONE OF THE LAST POSTS, WAS ONE OF THE LAMEST JOKES! I THINK I HEARD IT LIKE 10 YRS AGO! YOU ARE OFFICIALLY THE NEW KING OF FUCKTARDS!
TYPING IN ALL CAPS DOESN'T MAKE LOOK SMARTER OR FUNNIER, IT JUST MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE AN ASS!
Kristen Wiig FTW
SNL has not made me laugh since Eddie Murphy… I watch it and I don't think it's funny at all….
Re: LettyB – Hard to keep up w/ all those extra lbs. huh?
Waynes world was funny though… Not funny since mike myers
All hail king of fucktards!!!!
Re: harrybalsac –
So do typos
SNL has been sooo over for 30 years.
KRISTIN WIIG!!!!!!!!!
SNL has been going downhill for years, except the political satire. I still like Hammond and Samberg but all the other faves…and non-fave…bit the dust years ago.
Re: harrybalsac – THE KING OF FUCKTARDS HAS MADE A GREAT ANALOGY OF MY WRITING IN CAPS! EVERYONE TAKE NOTE!
Re: bango skanks – EAT SHIT FUCKER! No typo here.
Re: castinggirl – Kristen Wiig is brilliant. SNL needs to focus on her more.
a larger paycheck
Re: AnotherAndyAlias –

dude needs a life
that's super sucky….. isn't she having twins, perez?
eh….I really don't think she's that funny. and her hair looked like absolute shit while she did the SNL weekend update this past saturday
I'll miss her…and though I love her/"SNL"/"The Office"…I think she's making a biiig mistake.
