Every other month I get a special treat in my mailbox called BUST. The December/January issue of my favorite magazine features funny woman (and fellow mom) Amy Poehler. In an interview conducted by friend and former SNL alum Rachel Dratch, Amy expresses her love for son Archie, frustration with “lady-on-lady” crime, and need for an island getaway!   Speaking [...]  

Xposure Photos Good friends Tina Fey and Amy Poehler have more in common than their status as Saturday Night Live alums. In a new interview with TV Guide, the 38-year-old Parks and Recreation star says that it is their role as moms — Tina to 4-year-old Alice Zenobia, and Amy to 13-month-old Archibald ‘Archie’ William Emerson [...]  

As fearless bureaucrat Leslie Knope on Parks and Recreation, Amy Poehler usually has her hands full with her day job. Behind-the-scenes, Poehler is much more of a multi-tasker.  Besides starring in the NBC comedy, the Emmy nominee returned to her ...

While thousands of at-risk Americans wait, some big Wall Street banks have already secured the in-demand swine flu vaccine for their employees. Goldman Sachs has received 200 doses -- the same amount as Lenox Hill Hospital. Seth Meyers and Amy Poehler devoted their segment "Really?!?

Glamour's Women of the Year Awards highlight video (after the jump) features Bill Clinton, Rihanna, and Maya Angelou, but the best line is Amy Poehler's: "Girls, if boys say something that's not funny, you don't have to laugh." [Salon]  

Oh, “Parks and Recreation,” how do I love thee? Let me count the ways: 1. Amy Poehler’s Leslie Knope may have met her match with Megan Mullally’s Tammy. The library director may be an even bigger nemesis for Leslie than Halloween prankster Greg Pikitis last week. Tammy wanted to build a library over Leslie’s beloved pit, [...]

When you think of Amy Poehler, your mind could veer off into 10 different directions: the star of NBC’s Parks and Recreation, Weekend Update anchor, SNL’s Hillary Clinton impersonator, the baby mama from Baby Mama, etc. Well, if you haven’t already, you should add one more to that list: Bessie Higgenbottom, a senselessly energetic 10-year-old  

Comedy relies on surprise. "Saturday Night Live" has felt painfully dull this season without Sarah Palin to kick around or Tina Fey to do the kicking. Then it surprised viewers this weekend. It kicked President Barack Obama. Even more surprising, it ...

Hey, what’s that smell? Oh, I know — it’s the ink drying on Will Arnett’s Parks and Recreation contract.

He’ll play a possible suitor for Poehler’s character, Leslie. Incidentally, Arnett appears in the same episode that  

Xposure Photos Halloween is a special time for Amy Poehler – and not because she’s obsessed with witches or carving jack-o’-lanterns. “As an adult living in New York City, Halloween is a little redundant,” says the Parks and Recreation star. “For a long time, I got to wear a lot of wigs and dress up. I [...]

Will Arnett will join his wife, Amy Poehler, on "Parks and Recreation" later this season.The former "Arrested Development" star will guest-star on an episode of the NBC comedy in January, the network says. He'll be playing an MRI technician, which could put him in the orbit of nurse Ann (Rashida Jones), which would almost inevitably lead to a meeting with Leslie (Poehler).

Here's a shocker: something from Sarah Palin's memoir that hasn't been disputed. Saturday Night Live's Seth Meyers confirmed a claim made by the former Republican VP candidate that she asked the writers to remove a rather ribald joke from Amy Poehler's rap performance that referenced the phrase "drill, baby, drill" during her appearance on the show last year. The full joke went, "When we're in Wascilla (sic), it's chill, baby, chilla/In the...

Those entitled Wall Street types at Goldman Sachs are apparently oblivious to the fact that they’re having some PR issues of late—either that, or they don’t really care. Either way, “SNL” stars Amy Poehler and Seth Meyers make them the brunt of their jokes in this clip from last weekend’s show. READ THE WHOLE ITEM  

We know we're preaching to the converted here (for the most part), and we probably should have caught this semi-gruesome spoof ad by NYC's Upright Citizens Brigade (which once gave birth to Amy Poehler) before Halloween. But here it is, nevertheless, because it still gives us a chuckle, and everybody's in a political mood today anyhow.

There isn't enough Amy Poehler to go around -- we're always left wanting more, more, more of the funny lady. This week, though, we were lucky enough to get more than our usual share: She did a guest spot on "Saturday Night Live" over the weekend and was honored last night at Glamour's Women of the Year Awards, where she delivered a fine piece of advice to young girls. (As though she hadn't already done more than her share of that with her...  

Justin Theroux, who has been seen in the past on Sex and the City, The District and Ally McBeal, will soon be playing a recurring role on Parks and Recreation. The series, headlined by Amy Poehler, is one of the funniest on television. Theroux’s involvement speaks well for the future of the show. According to gossip, he’ll appear on episodes which air in 2010, and potentially become a love interest for Poehler...

In its sophomore season, Parks and Recreation has really hit its stride and finally become the hilarious half hour it always had the potential to be. Now it's about to get even funnier: Amy Poehler's husband, Will Arnett, is going to guest star on the show in January.

This Daily Show segment is one for the ages. Watch as Jon Stewart does a brilliant, pitch-perfect imitation of Glenn Beck. There's a war going on in America, and the stakes are nothing less than Glenn Beck's internal organs.

"Saturday Night Live" couldn't find much to do with January Jones as guest host this weekend. Just off a terrific season of "Mad Men," you'd think they'd do an elaborate homage to the series, just as they did when Jon Hamm was guest host (and everybody got to be one of the cast members except for Peggy - Amy Poehler was having her baby that night, so Fred Armisen's fiancé stepped in with excellent credentials. Elisabeth Moss originated the...  

Hmm. It's not a great episode of SNL Weekend Update Thursday when the funniest thing in it was a Hall and Oates song about the healthcare system. Actually, I might still have found that the funniest thing even if the episode was otherwise pretty solid. It just felt like a ton of good opportunities were missed this episode (no cold opener, or Amy Poehler, by the way).  For instance, a joke about Sarah Palin finishing her memoirs and the best...

Archibald ‘Archie’ William Emerson Arnett, who celebrates his first birthday later this month, isn’t quite sure what to think of the paparazzi while out grocery shopping at Bristol Farms with  Amy Poehler on Sunday in West Hollywood, Calif.

Seth Meyers worked solo on the desk for the entirety of "SNL Weekend Update Thursday" this week for the first time this season, meaning Amy Poehler was seen only in her own sitcom "Parks & Recreation." Unlike the mother show "Saturday Night Live" the half hour Thursday edition doesn't run credits or even say who's part of the ensemble. But it's clear it's not quite everybody from "SNL." Kristen Wiig is still about the only female; neither of...
