I love her! Let me know when Tina Fay comes to visit.
I hate those Tina Fey tribute acts.
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is so fecking good. Netflix if your not already all over it.
Troll the respawn, Jeremy.
It’s really not that good at all.
I liked it, lots of people didn’t though!
What’s with all the fawning over her. Was fairly unimpressive in parks and rec
Created, produced and starred in Parks and Recs, generally considered one of the best comedies in years. Unimpressive indeed.
She’s still not that great in parks and recs. then again that whole series was a big letdown after all the hype I heard about it. So I’ll retain my original stance of meh and unimpressed.
Same here. Became a chore to watch.
Sounds like some people only watched the the first season. The rest is fantastic, it’s not quite U.S. office good, but its close. The first season is a chore, but a worthwhile one! Proof: http://graphtv.kevinformatics.com/tt1266020
I hear your ma gets recced in parks
Best non-sequitur insult I’ve heard in a while
Just googled her and I still don’t know of her. Then I wiki’d her as surely she must have done something substantial to receive an award from Trinity. She hasn’t. What am I missing here?
Yes. It’s been going on for years now.
“It has become a marketing exercise, a publicity stunt, by universities,”

She used to be on SNL for ages, don’t know what else.
Oh for the days of talent
Fools fawning over ‘celebrities’.
Eek! A ghost!
Zuppy I’d say
Ugh, this is terrible. This is awful. Universities give these things out willy-nilly to every talentless hack going. Ugh. Celebrity culture run amok. Your poor mitts must be red raw from all the sanctimonious hand-wringing.
Trinity aren’t giving her the award, the society is. A society run by twenty-something year old college students who really want to meet/see her. She has, after all, both won and presented the Golden Globes, written and starred in two very successful TV shows and several movies that would be cultural and comedic touchstones for these young people (Mean Girls, Blades of Glory, Wet Hot American Summer). But, huh, what has this talentless hack done to deserve an award?
If you’ve never heard of her, there is – unfortunately – a very strong possibility that contemporary culture has passed you by, that you’re now too old to keep up with the kids. No bad thing, but a fact of life you might want to admit to yourself.
Yeah! You’re not down wid da kidz like me & I Bought A Little City.
I love her. She’s whip smart, funny & extremely successful. I’d love to have seen her speak.
A gratuitous pic of Amy Huberman.
Thought I accidentally clicked on the indo website.
Same here.
Full sure it was a styled up version of Lucinda for the New Party Launch
They should have invited her too, she’d have added a bit of colour.
as well as helping to launch the careers of alot of the most popular American improv comedians on your screens today (through her work in such places as the UCB theatres in New York and LA) …
she is a co-founder of upright citizens brigade
was on Saturday night live for over a decade
she was a writer , producer, director and actor on parks and rec,
she was in wet hot american summer, arrested development, anchorman, kroll show etc etc.
shes a golden globe,a writers guild of America and a peabody award winning writer … and on top of that she is funny as hell
shes abit of a legend if youre into comedy
I don’t remember her in Anchorman.
I think she just had a cameo in Anchorman 2 during the big fight scene.
my bad … she was in the bank robbery scene in the alternate cut of anchorman 1 (wake up ron burgundy) and the big fight scene in anchorman 2
She played the ice skater sister in the brother sister pair in Blades of Glory. ‘Think she’s married to him in real life. Dunno, home life stuff is not my usual trivia retention.
I am.
Actually.
Into Comedy.
I love Amy Poehlar, but she’s is no headliner
And she’s defiantly no solo act/ artist
Love that shirt.
Does it come in xXxl?
Who is she again?
Here
If Poehlar’s getting one
I want one
WTF. Phil Soc Tit. What about yere own?
Where’s my Gold Medal of Honour and Patriotism
Ah yeah. Tis all about that crowd over there in Amerikay.
Think ye’re that smart and all HBO huh?
Amy Poelhar, It Must Be Said, does stack up on paper, but in reality, has nowhere near the comedic timing that Jennifer Anniston has in her toenails.
The state of yur batxed wan with the veneered dentures and the rockabilly coat. Youd think she was sniffin around the big house the way she is carrin on.
What’s Amy Huberman doing there?
Fawning.
I love Poehler in Southland.
So I’m MUCH cooler than you.
