See More... "Saturday Night Live"'s Amy Poehler is leaving the long-running NBC comedy show to give birth to her first child and focus on other projects, the Los Angeles Times reports.

 

But Poehler, 37, plans to stay on the show through the November election, according to the Times' Envelope section.



Instead of returning to "SNL" after her maternity leave, Poehler will prepare to star in her own NBC series from the executive producers of "The Office," the Envelope reports.



Poehler tells Men’s Vogue magazine: "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."

On "SNL"'s season premiere last Saturday, Poehler reprised her frequent portrayal of Hillary Clinton in a skit that also featured a Tina Fey parody of Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin.
