[@meganpell2375]

honestly amy saying she’s going out with the cast of parks and rec for galentine’s day gives me life

[@nicolelyons3468]

Megan Rose moooooboi kb o

[@blakewjansen]

Did we really expect anything less?

[@YouFightLikeACow]

"Parks and Recreation" is lit'rlly my favorite show of all time and she's my favorite character on the show and possibly on TV. She just makes me so happy. And also, her character in "Inside Out" is delightful.

[@mhoward16GAMING]

Ann Perkins!

[@zaneanderson8791]

Hahaha alright Chris

[@k9aid514]

Amazing show for sure, everyone of the characters where excellent

[@lamelinna]

Who is she in INSIDE OUT?

[@meganpell2375]

Mc 326 shes joy

[@burtingsy2784]

Amy being happy for Parasite and Director Bong made me smile the way Leslie smiles when she eats waffles!

[@MissNoragnn]

I had a friend who transitioned to male years back and we use to celebrate Galentines day, in Spanish “galán” means handsome man, and “gallant” means gentleman, so I we celebrated “gallant-tines day” basically same pronunciation.

[@whataloadofbollox]

I always loved the interactions between Leslie Knope and Ron Swanson, so glad they never made it cheesy and them 2 fall in love even though they loved each other !

[@sepehr_moghani]

Hands down, Parks and Rec was the best show of all time.

[@jfish032]

Nah.. great! But not the best

[@sepehr_moghani]

Jordan Fisher it was my best 😬

[@deltajean119]

It’s the comfort food of television!

[@jfish032]

@@sepehr_moghani aww, okay, fair!! It's a great show 😂👍 (but The Office and Seinfeld are my faves)

[@sepehr_moghani]

Jordan Fisher haha I watch Seinfeld all the time. These pretzels are making me thirsty (George’s version) 😂

[@antipeter8013]

Amy looks like such a fun person to hang out with

[@nefarious67]

Amy’s SNL rap skit that was written for Sarah Palin was the funniest skit ever. Ever! And she was 9 months pregnant. Amazing lady!

[@shawnuel]

And pretty much the ENTIRE 9 months pregnant.

[@nattasle]

Leslie Knope and Ann Perkins finally getting married 😍😍

[@dallinorr6929]

Natalie Engdahl "Ann Perkins!"

[@billiemss5817]

oh, its Ann doing the girl's voice? ooh

[@sarabpreetkaur3360]

For real?

[@narrativa9928]

OMG that's what I thought too! So happy there are other people getting excited about it as well 🥰

[@nattasle]

@@sarabpreetkaur3360 it's Rashida Jones who played Ann who is the voice of the girl

[@KHUZAFARAUF]

Her book "Yes, Please" is so much fun.

[@melodyhaviland9393]

KHUZAFA RAUF i NEED to read it asap

[@hollyrogers2235]

I recently read it, it's brilliant.

[@gloworm106]

Listening to Amy read the audiobook is also fun and I highly recommend it.

[@eliostan1727]

Definitely recommend the audio book! I rarely see her on talk shows so it’s so nice to hear her tell her stories and jokes

[@Princetonlove34]

That book had me cracking up 😂

[@doublefeature]

what i wouldn't give to be part of that galentines day. rashida jones, aubrey plaza, kathryn hahn and poehler. like i cannot even.

[@seannanana84]

Some of the funniest and coolest women ever. I would be fine just being their server that night lol

[@chrisjags]

"Your show is very funny, I can't wait to see it."

[@mm12345777]

😂😂 I noticed that too. Or maybe he just meant that snippet was funny so he assumes the show is as well, who knows lol

[@dariuspardiwala670]

Can't wait for Golden Globes.

[@indytherottweiler9002]

Just love love love her. She's seems so humble and she's funny and so very pretty

[@koraldavis3474]

She's so full of beauty

[@timlazar9030]

I can't believe she invited Jennifer Barkley to Galentine's Day.

[@tnkgaltara2191]

Tim Lazar Jen Barkley is probably her friend now, seeing as she’s president.

[@frankhoffmann74]

Poncho

[@xgotSOLE]

I can't believe she can afford to have Jennifer Barkley there for Galentine's Day! She gets paid $1200/hr

[@tnkgaltara2191]

Time for some p&r therapy

[@seannanana84]

Oh Leslie Knope would totally invite her, what I can't believe is that Jennifer would show up lol

[@lildumbass9509]

Leslie knope becomes a vet

[@simonpavlik3709]

Looks like she is gonna fire the boys again

[@doublefeature]

only if ann is her vet tech.

What about a "Gal-Pal-entines day"? For folks that are strictly into friendship only?....

[@okanidug6035]

Palentines Day? Israel wont like that

[@canadian814]

@@okanidug6035 I didn't mean it that way, I meant as in friends? Like a Pal=Friend? Nevermind, it was a bad joke. I will stick to being SERIOUS then... EXCUSE ME...

Shes one of my favorite..

[@loveystar78cloud46]

Amy's so pretty.

[@AdventuresofGeraldandRhia]

amy is such a funny girl. Cannot wait for her to host the globes. ;)

[@RCmack]

Who didn't go to the mall in the '70's and '80's? Around where I live, Livonia Mall in Livonia, MI was a popular hangout. Every teenager and young adult would hang out there. Livonia Mall had a modest three movie theater complex. Now there's 16, 20, and 24 movie theater supercomplexes, many of those where there's reserved seating, like you're at a big concert instead of just at your local movie theater.

[@dirrald6532]

ooo my god now that I know Tina and Amy gonna host next year’s GG, I can’t waittttt just to see them

[@scottmiller9174]

I just signed up for Amazon prime so I could watch Parks and Rec! I love you Amy/Leslie!

[@robertpiekosz7470]

I binge it on Hulu. Didn't know it's on prime too

[@KittySnicker]

I love you, Leslie Knope!!! Pawnee is indeed filled with pee pee heads for recalling you! And I think men should have Palentine’s Day!

[@Tytytytyty1776]

I'm a guy and we have galentines day. Just cause we're guys doesn't mean we can also be each others gals.

[@Pemberjas]

“You feel like they’ve spoken on behalf of their generation” That is so true. Teenagers have so much street cred.

[@loganwolfpack]

I thought Amy was going to talk about groundhogs day, then I read the description again

[@bernadettejohnstone4529]

For all you commenting how he said "Your show is really funny. I can't wait to see it." He followed it up with "it PREMIERES Sunday" "premieres" tells me that no episodes have aired yet for him to watch.

[@bettersecret1499]

The hosts are given movies and pilot shows to watch (unless it's marvel and secret stuff like that) before anybody else so they know what they are talking about

[@bernadettejohnstone4529]

better secret ... of course they are given trailers and or clips like you said to give them an idea what they are talking about.

[@matthewscott1091]

A male version of Galentines Day? *How about, “Palentines Day”?* 😉 (Yes I just thought of that, genius I know.) I adore Amy & the whole cast of that incredible show, Parks & Recreation. It’s truly special. 💚

[@TastySchu4]

Amy had a real life "Some Kind of Wonderful" moment with her dad 🤣🤣🤣❤👍

[@marcotergicristiano3955]

I just wanna hug her

[@MrVikingsandra]

I remember her and Zach Galifianakis on that MTV show a gazillion years ago, I think it was called Apartment 2F. I used to watch it like crazy, had no idea who they were back in the 90's 😅

[@rose_quartz_loveandlight]

She's gorgeous 👑✨

[@galeraisanen7954]

I call it Gale-n-tines Day....I'll never find a personalized coffee cup, or keychain (with my name spelled correctly)--but now I have a holiday. Then again...with Etsy I can probably get more personalized stuff than I want. Happy Galentine's Day!

[@VianneyCreates]

The 70's were just as described...but I really think they were talking about the 80's. We were born in the 70's but those memories def occurred in the 80's.

[@BetteDavis19]

I was in the audience for this - I can hear myself screaming (and I was also sobbing) - Amy's just a goddess.

[@patriciofarez3847]

She's so good...and Beauty...😍....And funny.....😁

You got a crush dude

[@Gagatrondraa]

“There’s no male equivalent” *Palentines Day*: am I a joke to you

[@usmanqamar2639]

Leslie nope seems very happy.

[@bexyPTX]

Wild that apparently she's set to co-host an award show next year even though I bet it won't even happen, or at least not on time

[@sarahshae1543]

Galentines Day has saved me a few times gotta love it 👏

[@QuantumBraced]

It's human nature to feel nostalgic about the past regardless of what it was, people in the 50s were probably nostalgic about the 30s and 40s. The reality is, this is objectively the best time to be alive. I can't imagine life without the Internet alone, let alone all the other amazing things we have now.

[@bettersecret1499]

That's the plot of midnight in Paris

[@saquibaa]

Where you been Leslie Knope. I missed you.

[@slowpainful]

I love Amy Poehler and Jimmy K is my favorite of the talk show hosts. He's funny and sharp without being goofy, like Seth and Stephen sometimes are (yes, first-name basis with them all lol).

[@AnneHuang0205]

Palentine's Day!!! A non-exclusive version of Galentine's Day for all single friends lol.

[@hilaryd6341]

I love her😻❤️

[@beatsbykana]

wow. the fact she hangs out with them all is actually really cool lol

[@sebluketravis2438]

Big fan of Amy Poehler, she is a very good comedy writer and had been brilliant in both Parks and Rec and SNL of the past. However, she looks so sad in her eyes and mentioned graves/falling asleep forever and stuff a couple of times. Hope she is OK and people are giving her support since the Will Arnett days.xx
