she actually did a lot of funny stuff and really was the last of the really good girls (i think Wiig is wasted).

too bad they only showed a snippet of the "Rock of Love" sketch.

I watched bits and pieces of the episode. I loved the dollar sketch, although Horatio Sanz kind of ruined it when he showed up. Most of it was new to me. I've only watched a handful of episodes in the past few years.

Did anyone think it was too early to show a best of Amy Poehler Show especially during the same season she left?

Maybe they could have shown it in Oct 2009 or 2010?

I was worried in the beginning all they would show was stuff from 2008 and 2007 and all the sketches that get repeated constantly on E!


they should have shown the basic instinct 2 trailer.

The Weekend Update montage was great.


She has been gone for about 4 months and I miss her already.

This show was the best show in the past 2 months.

My thought the timing was to create more "buzz" around Parks & Recreation.

I love that bar sketch when she's about to pop.

"When are you due?"
"Yesterday."
"Jackpot."

< Loves me some Amy.

I didn't get to see all of the show but what I did see reminded me of why I love her.

I actually missed a large chunk of SNL in the last decade or so, so I had never seen most of those sketches, but the Dakota Fanning one with Barrymore was the funniest of last night's episode. The one I just didn't get was the "little girl" character who wanted an instrument. Had some funny lines, but I don't know why it was chosen to run complete when there were some better skits in the ending clipshow.

That was Caitlan one of her repeating characters.

some of the best stuff was shown at the end.

Hey Jeff... thanks the the nice note in the PM.

Despite SNL's rough patches, I've been proud to start the threads for SNL for the last 5 years.

... here's to a few more!

The Weekend Update segments reminded me why Seth Myers sucks so hard on his own.
