It's no joke: Amy Poehler officially left Saturday Night Live over the weekend."This is my last show," Poehler announced from her "Weekend Update" anchor desk. "Being able to do over 140 shows with my friends and my family has been a dream come true.
"I love you," she told the audience, "and I will miss all of you very much."
She won't be off the small screen for long.
The star -- who welcomed son Archie with husband Will Arnett in October -- has signed on for NBC's upcoming Office spin-off, set to air next year.
In September, Poehler -- who scored laughs as Hillary Clinton and Katie Couric on SNL this season -- first announced plans to leave SNL.
"It's gonna be really hard — Boyz II Men hard — to say goodbye to yesterday," she said at the time. "SNL was dangerous, late-night, last-minute and star-studded, but like any good drug, you need to know when to put it down."
