No! Amy Poehler is leaving Saturday Night Live!
My favorite actress on SNL is leaving!! Amy Poehler, who is pregnant with her first child, plans to leave after having her baby and she’s not coming back. DAMMIT!!! Here’s what she had to say:
“It’s gonna be really hard — Boyz II Men hard — to say goodbye to yesterday,” she says. “SNL was dangerous, late-night, last-minute and star-studded, but like any good drug, you need to know when to put it down.”
Poehler won’t be off the small screen altogether.
She has signed on for NBC’s upcoming Office spin-off, set to air next year.
“I can kind of confirm that I will be working in some capacity on that show,” she said in July. “I don’t really have any other details yet.”

I just watched Amy’s farewell speech on SNL. BUMMER!!!!! As a mother, I can understand the family pull. Selfishly, I will miss her talent and the depth she brought to the program. All the best to her and her growing family. I look forward to seeing her on the screen in the future.
