Amy Poehler showing up for Aubrey’s first time hosting SNL is such a Leslie Knope move and I love it.

[Robisquick]

I can’t believe Aubrey Plaza went from being Aubrey Plaza who hasn’t hosted SNL, to Aubrey Plaza who has hosted SNL in just 1 hour! Insane progress from such humble beginnings (Edit: There is no edit, just wanted to be part of the "my comment blew up so i need to suck more clout out by putting 'edit' in the comment and thank everybody" gang)

The fact that Keenan has been on so long he’s able to tell the host “that’s because I ordered it in 2004” is absolutely mind-boggling.

I love how she's a little bit nervous and there's several awkward silences where the audience isn't sure if the joke landed. It LANDED lol just adds to her legendary weirdness 💯

[strong]

I like how when she's nervous she sounds like a 1940s Hollywood starlet.

[costanzafaust]

That's sweet to give a bunch of the other pages some screen time, and that was a pretty awesome walking monologue.

[superpidge]

Just so happy for her, what a full circle moment

[FlackNCoke]

I’m pretty sure I heard Aubrey was invited to audition for SNL way back before Parks & Rec and was rejected. Must be awesome to go from being a page to a rejected SNL audition to a breakout sitcom star to a beloved comic actress to a beloved indie movie and prestige TV actress to SNL host.

I was so heart warmed by Amy Phoeler showing up ❤

[GR-nzom]

Perfect monologue for her. Kinda weird, kinda quirky, a lot of fun.

[angelinamclaughlin-heil]

What a great story of her hard work and talent paying off and love Amy Pohler showing up to support her!

[speedtrls]

I am here for Aubrey Plaza's continued success. She is SO talented!!! Congrats.

[forfeitthegame]

When they popped up as their Parks and Rec characters, I damn near started crying. It made so many of us P and R fans so filled with joy.

[MavethTheReaper]

One of my favorite monologues, Aubrey natural has a chill, cool, funny vibe so this just seemed natural for her.

[brendatomlinson]

I had high expectations for Aubrey’s monologue and she exceeded them! And seeing her with Amy again made my heart pitter patter with happiness.

[loveinthematrix]

The way she smiled when the camera cut back after showing her grandma - Aubrey you can’t pretend you don’t have a beautiful heart my G ❤ She’s one of the top 5 celebrity weirds of all time. Queen 🎉

The SNL team uploading skits faster than CNN uploads news clips is damn impressive.

[MissCarrieH]

Aubrey is such a queen 👑 I don't even know her personally but I'm proud of her, and I've grown up watching her, feeling represented lol

[heidinewman]

I adore her. Emily the criminal really showed off her acting chops. Such a talent.

5:51 where she got choked up for a split second hit me really hard. So happy for her and this full circle moment!
