Kristen Wiig is a comedic and artistic gem. Her humor is beyond intelligent and wise. She is just brilliant! 🤩

[@tami4peace]

Kristin looks amazing!!! So do you Seth…but Kristin looks gorgeous!!

[@mvvpro8688]

I just now realized it was Kristen playing that role in Palm Royale, and I have watched all of her SNL performances.

[@oopsallluke]

Nurse!

[@matthew4725]

You got me with "and don't call me Shirley."

[@myjewelry4u]

My former colleagues used to say my faces and delivery of jokes (honestly, just my actual life) reminded them of Carol Burnett. I was so honored!

[@carolynturk-hu7je]

Love the cast! 😊

[@lindaswanson9328]

Love Kristen Wiig! Adorable and funny!

[@yobets5225]

❣ Love her and Carol

[@pjdava]

Late Night with Seth Meyers, I can't get enough of your content, so I subscribed!

[@Biboche23]

Love her! And her new show Palm Royale which is so deliciously beautifully im vintage and camp! She looks great 😂❤

[@ohmbuoy1]

I absolutely have to say that Kristen is a genius, gorgeous, talented actress..... master of the sketch, ad lib, and causing me to fall out of my chair every time I watch her mastery of being a supreme actress. 😎❤❤❤

[@looney1023]

Waiting for the day Barb and Star gets a theatrical release! Such a gorgeous, hilarious movie.

[@paulgeary6511]

I LOVE YOU KRISTEN!!! 🖤🩶🤍💜💟💜🤍🩶🖤

[@justawho808]

Totally saw Sarah Paulson when she walked out haha.

[@peterbathum2775]

thanks

[@NewMessage]

Make the prequel "Trish, Spirit of the Ocean"!

[@JustiisLeague]

What so wait is there a day drinking episode?

[@nirmalsuki]

Gilly!

[@Kyle_is_nowhere]

How is she aging in reverse?! She looked and acted younger than the current cast on SNL tonight! 🤩🔥

[@paulheckbert]

plastic surgery, it appears, unfortunately

[@alexd1121]

She’s an acting genius and an underrated movie star. The new show was addictive till now but the last two episodes were a bit of a let down from the first 3 episodes. Especially episode 5 and the focus on Douglas who is the least interesting character on the show.. The scenes where Maxine is drunk were a total miss as well as there’s no way that such a control freak would loosen up that much and diss the Shiny newspaper lady like she did or suddenly jump on Ricky after totally dissing him since the beginning of the show. The promo hoopla about the great Carol B needs to move to Kristen and Ricky who are the real scene stealers of this super fun show. Also they seem to have untangled every pending mystery in one go and not in the most satisfying ways. It’s always a privilege being in virtual company with Kristen Wigg so they better keep these ladies and the whole Palm Royal glam vibe and mystery from the first episodes going!!! Crossing my fingers!

[@claydavis9157]

[@c.o.n.collectingofnostalgi889]

And now back to the CALIFORNIAS

[@dsmyify]

Get outta heeeeeere!

[@mittens4kittens435]

You take a left on La Cienagaaa

[@adnannasr9471]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@maverickhanecak1682]

Lucy and Brenda

[@jazzyjackish6822]

🎉

[@hifi-photo-Brian]

These 2 videos should only be 1 Longer video! Or at least label them part 1 and part 2.

[@paulheckbert]

and put them in the correct order

[@SUK2293]

Sarah Paulson

[@ThatGuy-dj3qr]

Okay, I did not recognize her at all. Has she had work done? The haircut might be part of it, but her face looks quite different.

[@MayBeMe...]

She has had many "nose jobs" and something has been damaged around the sides of her mouth, her muscles do not seem to work in sync....why she felt she needed anything done is a mystery since she was perfect before.😣

[@MayBeMe...]

Hey Seth - I LOVE you but, next time she's on, let Kristen speak!!! You were so excited to have her on you were speaking for her!!!🤐

[@dmh123c]

Brahbrah was her best role.

[@mc76]

I am amused by the naivete of the comments about Wiig's appearance. I am not passing judgment; to each her own. But come on people.

[@danielbradshaw4068]

I love Kristen Wigg. Such a good actress if her Art.

[@zealotestheaussie5880]

Anyhow…you know what it takes…Freud and all that ‘mother’ stuff. Karl comes into Per Se in a lion costume and whimpers and then sits down and says, “ So you know how Star Wars is a total rip-off of the Wizard of OZ?” And I say, completely pal, and he says, “Well…you know how Luke is Dorothy, and Han Solo is the lion, and C3PO is the tin man, and Chewbacca is the scarecrow, and R2D2 is Toto, and Darth Vader is the wicked witch of the West, and Obi Wan is the Wizard, and Leia is the good witch, and the stormtroopers are the flying monkeys, and the jawas are the munchkins, and on and on that ripp-off schitt goes with Lucas?” And I nod sighing. “Well…I’m remaking Star Wars with US politicians. Trump is Darth Vader. Lindsay Graham is the wicked witch. The tin man is Nancy Pelosi. The scarecrow is Biden. Kamala Harris is the good witch. Bernie Sanders is Obi Wan. Matt Gaetz, Maddison Cawthorn and Ted Cruz are stormtroopers. Mitch McConnnell is Toto. Chuck Schumer is the Millennium Falcon. Kyrsten Sinema is that weird Admiral Starfleet guy played by Peter Cushing. Katie Britt is a strange piece of metal in the Millennium Falcon and it’s exact purpose no one knows. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez is Luke. And the yellow brick road is Wall St. Do you think it will have ‘legs’ at the box office?” And I take a sip of my Manhattan and say, it beats most of the other totally mindless schitt on the screen these days pal. Go for it…

[@kay-c7486]

Picked the wrong video first again.

[@mollieanne]

How is she 50? Oh My God. I need to know who her dermatologist is.

[@sebastiankinnunen5549]

Facelift, fillers, botox.

[@mollieanne]

@@sebastiankinnunen5549 oh great. I am going to do that. I sure need to start looking younger since now I am already going to be 55 yikes.

[@mikhail5428]

*Whatever she did on her face makes her look weird, but at the same time looks hotter than ever*

[@Chetterhummin88990]

Never heard of Carol Burnett before

[@Molsod123]

Stand with Palestine 🇵🇸

[@MistrBlistr]

I watched the first episode and didn’t laugh once.

[@junetakesover]

its not a comedy

[@blackbird5634]

Fun fact: Carol Burnett never got a face lift!😆

[@leapintothewild]

I'm really surprised he says Palm Royale is funny. I haven't laughed once, and won't be watching the next episode. The fashion and makeup are spot on, but not wasting timejust for that.

[@edie8931]

it's worth giving it another go, the first episode is never the best because it's setting everything up but once it gets going its so good

[@leahferrell3110]

Why is Seth constantly interrupting Kristen? Frustrating.

[@kristieamaya3365]

Someone's had some work done

[@user-sv9nb8ky2t]

you can always tell

[@anthellis]

We’re talking about Seth, right?

[@peteradaniel]

She’s lost a lot of weight, but can’t see the work?!? Maybe lips?! I can’t see evidence of buccal fat, she’s creased in forehead and around the eyes. Where do you think it is?

[@sarahwbs]

I was going to say, I didn't even recognize her.

[@dsmyify]

It's Hollywood baby. It's all fake.

[@jasonvegan5761]

Another celebrity I didn’t recognize because of unnecessary cosmetic procedures. She was already pretty.

[@sperrinwell-beingandyoga9224]

Hear hear!

[@charlotteillustration5778]

Though I do have sympathy for anyone in that situation who feels the need to use cosmetic surgery as they get a little older. It’s a viciously competitive world and if they believe it’s the only way to keep working,then good luck to them. Though I wish it weren’t necessary, especially for someone like Kristen Wiig, who is naturally beautiful.

[@pruett89]

If she has or has not gotten cosmetic procedures has no bearing on her worth or her abilities. Just like your opinion has no bearing on on her life. Why comment this? Why mention it at all? She’s a grown woman who can do what she wishes and your can’t confirm she’s had work done anyways. So again why even comment on this as if you have standing on what she does?

[@jasonvegan5761]

@@pruett89 Dippy doesn’t understand that my comment was made …. wait for it …. in the “comments section” where “comments” are meant to be made. That and an overuse of assumptions makes dippy’s comment fairly meaningless.

[@nannerz1994]

I bet there's none of these types of comments on Mike Birbiglia's video

[@BicoastalKate]

All he did was talk about Carol Burnett! Who's great, but this was meant to be an interview of Kristen Wiig. What has SHE been doing recently? She's the producer? Who's directing? PLEASE get better at interviewing.

[@debbiedoodiedandi]

I love how people can see things in different ways! I thought Kristen felt uncomfortable talking about herself, and preferred to talk about Carol Burnett!

[@BicoastalKate]

@@debbiedoodiedandi What a lovely way to look at this interview! I appreciate your perspective. My perspective has become overly jaded from 10 years of Seth's interviews. His interviews are too short (IMHO) for the guests to really have an opportunity to open up; and Seth always seems to have pre-scripted questions from which he doesn't deviate, no matter what the guest responds. And ... not the case here ... but his team often haven't done their homework, so he asks silly questions to which he would have known the answer with five minutes on Google or IMDB. He really is best at just having conversations with his buddies.

[@jkn3712]

Seth talked waaaaaay too much in this so-called interview of Kristin Wiig. Viewers are tuning in to hear HER, Seth, not you just deciding to have a would-be-at-home visit w/ an old friend. Terrible interviewing job. Love Kristen.
