She's sticking around to play Hillary Clinton when necessary, but, after that, Amy Poehler will be peacing out to have a baby -- and she's not going to return.

"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."

Amy will be working in some capacity on The Office spinoff after she leaves SNL, but she hasn't gone into much detail about that.

SNL needs more chicks on it now.

Hire me!
