Amy Poehler recalls sitting next to SNL host Christopher Walken in complete silence for 20 minutes


Amy Poehler recalls sitting next to 'SNL' host Christopher Walken in complete silence for 20 minutes: 'Probably the longest I've ever sat not chitchatting with someone ever.'

"Everybody did their Christopher Walken, and, of course, there were great impressions," Poehler recalled of the "Meet the Family" sketch. I was playing a young girl, and I just got a laugh on the word spooky, which, is fun to say as Christopher Walken. Walken has hosted so often he even has a recurring character, The Continental, a debonair gentleman who believes he's a "ladies man," but is constantly rebuffed for his sexually predatory behavior.
