Oct 26 2008Amy Poehler is now exactly like that movie
Amy Poehler gave birth to son Archie Arnett last night. This is the first child for Amy and husband Will Arnett who totally need to have another one and name it Jughead. What? It's unisex. People reports:
Archie Arnett was born on Saturday and weighed in at 8 lbs., 1 oz., their rep Lewis Kay said in a statement.
"Amy, Will and Archie are all healthy and resting comfortably," Kay said.
During the "Weekend Update" segment of Saturday Night Live, Poehler's co-anchor Seth Meyers announced to a cheering crowd: "Amy Poehler is not here tonight because she is having a baby."
Of course, the SNL crowd only cheered to cover the sound of their own escape after basically being told nobody funny was going to be on the show. Whoops. Anyway, congratulations and props to Amy and Will for going with the name "Archie." It's different without being fucking retarded like "Apple" or "Spencer Pratt." That said, I'm still naming my kid "Han Solo Batman." It will be a special gift from father to son - before I move to Hong Kong, and his mother tells him I'm a secret agent. Ha ha, can't believe she fell for that. Secret agents don't live with their parents! I mean, they do. Ladies.

Sep 16 2008Amy Poehler leaving Saturday Night Live
Amy Poehler, who's pregnant with her first child with husband Will Arnett, will take a maternity leave from Saturday Night Live after the November election - but she won't be coming back, according to the latest issue of Men's Vogue:
"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."
Okay, now everybody can officially say there's nobody funny on SNL anymore. Not that I've watched the show in years, but I sort of liked knowing it was there. You know, in case I ever found myself sitting at home on a Saturday night with a fistful of Valium and Wild Turkey. What can I say? I'm a health nut.
Sep 15 2008Tina Fey displays her uncanny ability to resemble Sarah Palin
Tina Fey did the obvious this weekend and portrayed Alaska Governor Sarah Palin during the season premiere of Saturday Night Live. While this sketch lacks the awesomeness of Gina Gershon in a bikini, it does contain a powerful message. And that message is: I'd do things to Tina Fey. Although, technically, that means I'd do things to Sarah Palin, but her refusal to use any form of contraception nullifies such an arrangement. Unless, of course, she lets me "shoot my own moose." I have no idea what that means, but I bet it's a great euphemism for "Hey, I don't remember Jesus saying anything about child support."
Apr 28 2008Amy Poehler is pregnant: OMG, just like the movie!
Amy Poehler and Will Arnett are having a baby. The irony? Amy is currently seen with Tina Fey in Baby Mama which debuted at #1 this weekend. Somewhere Christian Bale is saying, "No fair. I don't get to be Batman." But he's lucky, because I'd kill him then steal his bat-suit. True story. Anyhow, People has the details on Amy's uterus:
The Saturday Night Live regular, 36, and her husband, Will Arnett, are to become first-time parents, their rep Lewis Kay confirms to PEOPLE.
The baby is due in late fall.
The couple have been married since 2003.
First off, as a huge fan of both Upright Citizens Brigade and Arrested Development, heartfelt congrats to Amy and Will. That said, I fear for their child. I know some of you might be thinking, "Oh, they're both so funny. Their kid will be hilarious!" But guess again. If Bruce Willis and Demi Moore are any indicator, celebrity children are usually the exact opposites of their parents meaning Will and Amy's kid will be one unfunny little tyke. Or, in layman's terms, Amy will give birth to Jimmy Fallon.
