A writer from North Carolina State University’s newspaper interviewed me for a piece she wrote on SNL.   You can find the link below. I’m surprised how many things I said made it in it.

Is Saturday Night Live still funny?

As for my opinion on characters, I only mentioned Gilly and “the male host on Maternity Matters” as recurring characters I disliked. Because they’re so one note, and never deviate from the formula.  Yes, there really is a Kristen character I dislike. Actually, there’s several.

I must also note that Tina Fey is no longer the head writer on SNL. It’s Seth Meyers now.

Real Women of SNL

A strong parody of the “Housewives” shows appeared on the SNL Women special, starring several SNL women.

Don’t forget this airs tonight!  I’ve heard there’s some new segments filmed just for the show, including a take on the “Housewives” shows.

Also, this past weekend marked 3 yrs of KristenWiigfan.com.  Thanks for visiting!

There’s a DVD I completely missed. It’s the Best of 2009-2010 release.  It features the Betty White episode. I haven’t gotten it yet but I’m going to soon.   I would like to make a page listing all of Kristen’s work on various DVDs.

We finally see a trailer!  Kristen’s in it near the end.

Saturday Night Live Premiere

Saturday Night Live’ Premieres September 25 With SNL Alum Amy Poehler & Chart-Topping Musical Guest Katy Perry

Yes, Amy Poehler hosts the season premiere! I’m hoping to make it to a SNL taping this year too, which would be my first, fingers crossed.

MacGruber on DVD

MacGruber is on DVD this week! So go out and spend your paycheck on it, because it’s the only film with Will Forte you will ever need.

I found a May interview with Kristen on AintItCool.com.  It has some nice little dirt on what SNL characters she likes to play, her process of creating, etc.

All Good Things Sets the Date

December 17, 2010 is the release date for All Good Things!

Emmy Awards

So Kristen didn’t win an Emmy.  She lost to a great performer though and I’m sure Kristen will be nominated again.  I added four photos so far to the gallery from the Emmys and will be adding more.

62nd Annual Primetime Emmys

Tina Fey was great in the opening number with Jimmy Fallon, I wish Kristen and maybe some other SNL cast members had been in it as well.

Westfeldt Wants to Become Friends with Wiig

Jennifer Westfeldt, who made one of the best independent movies of all time, Kissing Jessica Stein, and who is also Jon Hamm’s girlfriend has a new film she’s prepared to make with Hamm, and wants Anne Hathaway and Kristen in the cast.  Read more at Showbiz411.com.

SNL Cast Has Two New Additions

The New York Post reports three new additions have been added to Saturday Night Live. to replace Will Forte.  Two males and one female. Yes! Some new women on the show.

New York Post: SNL is Adding Three New Stooges

“Taran Killam, a refugee from the cast of the long-running sitcom “Scrubs,” and two young comedians from Chicago — Paul Brittain and Vanessa Bayer – have been signed to the cast, according to several reports over the weekend.

News of the signings came just a day after it was announced Will Forte, who’s been on “SNL” for eight years and was perhaps best know for his “McGruber” take-off, was leaving the show.”

The hacking sucked, but I’ve moved on. First, I have a new splash page. The image was designed by VivandLarry.com, which is a beautiful website devoted to Vivian Leigh and Lawrence Olivier. If you’re a classic Hollywood fan, I’d definitely check it out. I was getting very tired of the ugly white page, so I had to change it.

Thanks New Media for the promo!

Also, how awesome is that banner for MacGruber with Kristen on it at the top of the site?

SNL is new tonight! Ryan Phillipe (who Kristen worked with in MacGruber) Ke$sha (singer of “Tik Tok”) will be on tonight.

FanReviews on Youtube went out and got audience response on How To Train Your Dragon.  Watch it here.

The Fan Carpet has linked to KristenWiigfan.com!  This is a real honor, as they’re a website with a ton of hits and they host some amazing websites, such as AboutJulia.com and Kirsten-Dunst.org which have been around since 1999 and 1998, respectively.  You can now find me linked on the Kristen Wiig page.

Bridesmaids?

The newest Muppet movie has gotten a director, and with that announcement comes the news the same director (James Bobin, cocreator of Flight of the Conchords) is being considered for the Judd Apatow-produced Bridesmaids, Kristen’s project, formerly known as “Untitled Kristen Wiig Project.” According to Screenrant.com, the movie is about “two bridesmaids competing to plan a friend’s wedding party.”

A Very Gilly Christmas

I added the first video of the Gilly Xmas special.  Did you know that according to Nielsen ratings, that episode was in the top 20? One can’t help but give a little credit to Kristen!
