Amy Poehler Talks Creating 'Chemistry' With Adam Scott on ‘Parks and Rec’


Amy Poehler and Adam Scott portrayed married couple Leslie Knope and Adam Scott, respectively, on NBC’s hit comedy ‘Parks and Rec’

Poehler, who was discussing intimate scenes alongside fellow Parks and Rec alum Rashida Jones, added that she was told the “trick” of looking at your costar when “they’re not looking at you” is effective. The Murderville star first encountered the Saturday Night Live alum in 1996, when he saw her perform with her improv comedy group, Upright Citizens Brigade. Poeher’s comments about onscreen “chemistry” come days after Scott’s appearance on the “ Smartless ” podcast, which is cohosted by Poehler’s ex-husband, Will Arnett, Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes.
