Poehler Gets Her Party On: New Trailer for 'Smart Girls'


An update on the new web series on starring SNL darling Amy Poehler: a new promo for the show with ON Networks has emerged. It looks like Ms. Poehler’s pregnancy has got her maternal side rooting for go-get-em kids everywhere. In each episode of Smart Girls at the Party, Poehler sits down with a girl who is working to “change the world just by being themselves,” according to ON. The interview format promises conversation from the serious to the hilarious. But there won’t be any Barbara Walters-style tears here, as every episode of the show ends in a “spontaneous” dance party. Moms and kids are target-audience in this doc-style show with former Nickelodeon producer Meredith Walker

(Nick News) and PBS host Amy Miles (Lomax: Hound of Music) co-hosting. Still seeking sponsorship for the show, ON has been slowly rolling out press releases and teasers. Upcoming episodes are said to feature bright girls engrossed in gardening, dancing, feminism, and rock and roll. To these busy ladies, parties are not necessarily a priority. This won’t be Poehler’s first foray into childrens programming as she recently developed and produced, along with Miles, the animated TV show The Mighty B, which quickly became the #1 Saturday morning show on Nickelodeon. With a reported 32 million moms online and growing, the audience seems to be there for the taking.
