Love when Seth has his friends on and they all just giggle. So real

[@aim9407]

Okay but Fred nailed that

[@OvSpP]

I like that y’all have started to just upload the whole interview slates. Like weekend updated started to do this past season. The 30 rock KZbin team needs a raise.

[@AkiroKiro]

I also thought that was a smart idea, but the viewer numbers seem to contradict it sadly?

[@GrazingFields301]

Yes viewers contradict, because this is completely ridiculous. Past 9 years or so, all current talk shows immediately upload episode content to KZbin. So all of it is there. And, episodes from only 2 months ago? Nice effort by this KZbin channel doing the bare minimum. No easier and secure job than this on the planet. And this is Seth Meyers, not Conan O'Brien or Craig Ferguson, so not worth watching twice.

[@AkiroKiro]

@@GrazingFields301 Oh i just thought they were uploading the other nights interviews in combination now instead of separating them, those are old interviews? If so then that is indeed just straight up silly and would explain the low numbers

[@shayboogie3682]

Whole interview uploads = the gift that keeps on giving ❤

[@daverussellmpls]

Bundling makes total sense in this case because there is the Crutches Museum tie between the two interviews.

[@michaeldonovan3959]

Kristen and Birbigs back to back are quality entertainment.

[@McCrackenJoel]

Wen I was first married we lived in a neighborhood that was fairly economically depressed, and there were lots of wild things I saw there, but one of the more bizarre were how there was just always bits of crutches on the sidewalks, just all of the time. And not the same bits, either. New parts/whole crutches would show up. I have no idea how or why that area tended to collect crutches, but it did.

[@Paulo-1999]

I love SNL, I watch it since mid-90's (I also know a lot of the older stuff) and I can tell you that the singing duo with Wigg and Fred is among the funniest SNL bits ever. And it's especially cool seeing them both here with Seth because the bit happened during his time hosting the Weekend Update! ❤

[@mayberelevant3237]

Me too ! Lol but I’ve been watching since 1976 😬

[@Paulo-1999]

@@mayberelevant3237 That's awesome! 😄👍

[@mayberelevant3237]

I love !! That the Wiigs wear Wigs 😂❤

[@daverussellmpls]

I also love that they did not point out the obvious during the interview at all

[@lushrimbaughiii]

How the hell does she not have an Emmy

[@GrazingFields301]

Because in the Emmys there's no 'Variety series with terrible writing' category.

[@lushrimbaughiii]

@@GrazingFields301 Then how does Lorne Michaels have 21 Emmys

[@ejyounggun08]

4.6 million subscribers and only 41k views. Why? As soon as I saw Wiig and Birbigs in the title, I added to my watch list.

[@thepadonthepondbythescum]

A walker wing at the crutch museum! Wow!

[@culinarycaravan]

The Crutches Museum, right up there with the NY Earth Room. Seriously, one can never have the same NYC experience twice no matter how many times one visits.

[@joslynwilson]

Help watching the show on KZbin in Canada! We can see the guest interviews, but not the monologues or A Closer Look!

[@dakotac180]

To also have fred there its like watching good snl.

[@ericconrad8854]

I wasn't aware Fred was in the background and something about him suddenly popping up killed me.

[@floki-man]

I was lucky enough to play a dead henchman in the presence of Kristen Wiig in the mountains of New Mexico for Macgruber season 1. I almost stepped on Will Forte during lunch. I’m a few feet taller than him, didn’t recognize him at first with the height difference and Macgruber looking up at me. Missed opportunity for a fist bump as we were both startled and someone else interrupted the ending.

[@HRHDMKYT]

“A few FEET taller than him”??! What, are you a Giant?!!! 😂

[@joefunsmith]

And here... we have the family's wigs. The Wiig wigs.

[@SaintD382]

I couldn't believe they didn't make a pun about that: it would have been good for a chuckle.

[@patrickmike2524]

My favorite scene in MacGruber is her screaming in the coffee shop

[@jennayoung3597]

Mike clearly doesn't actually watch this show or he would know "buddy buddy buddy buddy" is Seth doing Owen Wilson.

[@iorn9814]

Ask Mike about rich vos that’s the comedic genius who helped him rise

[@fustigate314159]

Weatherford, OK lacks even an Applebee's.

[@shayboogie3682]

😂 but do they have glistening? 😅😅😅😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

[@PerhapsOOTMM]

She looks a lot like Elizabeth Olsen here

[@tylerhackner9731]

Nice 👍🏽

[@glum_hippo]

Would “The old man and the pool” be a good heckle?

[@perfectionbox]

Bridesmaids was so madcap 🤣😂

[@LowfDog]

Kristen Wiig is so hot with that haircut, rawr!

[@SUPER_WOLFMOON]

Birbiglia looks WAY more like Matt Damon than Meyers looks like Bradly Cooper! I had no idea that the French were blind as well as rude. Maybe they were trolling Seth?

[@shayboogie3682]

Definitely trolling 😂😂😂

[@maureenlaneski2802]

She could host a show like this.

[@mikemirtle]

She looks so different these days. Love her work, regardless.

[@scottbaxendale323]

I’ll be so happy when duck lips are not in style.

[@IAmKAZMO]

She used to be able to make facial expressions but, now she's having alot of surgeries on her nose and the fillers have killed off her forehead muscles from movement, as well. It's kinda terrifying.

[@Tao_Tology]

She doesn't have 'duck lips'.

[@scottbaxendale323]

@@Tao_Tology Yes, she was so beautiful and looks weird now. She has had the lip fillers.

[@LiveIsBeautiful]

⁠@@scottbaxendale323same with Meg Ryan. I could barely look at her anymore and eventually her career died, I think because most people were turned off as well, because she was considered very cute and funny. Hope the same thing doesn’t not happen to Kristen. It’s a shame some celebrities don’t realize how perfect they are, but it’s the Hollywood obsession I guess; they think a “better” will make them more popular…

[@Questionsfromfarawaydemocracy]

What happened to monologues and closer looks? Are they not longer available? 😢

[@jkap34]

They're on a break. These are just old interviews clipped together by interns or whoever and posted. I think they should be back on Monday, if not then the following Monday.

[@user-tc5pl3zw3h]

I can just see Kristen lying under Will Forte, saying, "This is so hot that I am just soaking wet...", and him cracking up at the profound pun.

[@joshsteele5701]

Angel Hernandez is retiring. He was fired years ago but he just kept missing calls.

[@Dr_1212]

😎👍

[@frostyflames7864]

Kristen Wiig from Bridesmaids and SNL? I recognized her from Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar

[@latenitecaptain]

Gud one is also what some moms say right after looking at her new born.

[@francobenevento7598]

She seems to get hotter every time I see her.

[@latenitecaptain]

[@cutthechicken194]

WHERE'S A CLOSER LOOK & MONOLOG 😨

[@tami4peace]

😂😂😂😂

[@bfgivmfith]

I aspire to be Kristen Wiig's pool boy. :)

[@its3Dinmymind]

Did we lose a closer look again?

[@HRHDMKYT]

I so admire Kristen Wiig, she’s so funny. It’s a bit disappointing that she went in for that lip 👄 filler treatment, she sure didn’t need it. But, of course she can do to herself whatever she wants. It’s just such a Hollywood cop-out. 😣(Maybe she’s as insecure as the rest of them that feel the need to do it. Sad.)

[@johnray527]

I'm a huge fan of her SNL days, and it's her life, but she doesn't look like the same person any more. I don't recognize her as Kristin Wiig. I recognize her as "oh right, this is what Kristin Wiig looks like now, after she did... whatever it is that she did." I wish our culture was more comfortable with aging.

[@mayberelevant3237]

That’s what I thought ? I almost didn’t recognize her and then thought of course she’s had “surgery “. And if I was her dresser I would of gotten her to wear a lace camo underneath her jacket 🤷‍♀️♥️🇨🇦

[@lille-mary1517]

I hear you. As a whole I wish that for our culture as well. I feel for actors after a certain age. I talked to a Swedish plastic surgeon that also works with botox and fillers that don’t involve surgery. And he said that many actresses come to a point where they can actually say in consultation that they really do not hate how they look after let us say 40. But as everyone else, they have different amounts of energy, mental health, insecurities. That added up, often make it a question of, what am I aquipped more to take, stand to read about or hear about. Comments of ”look at how old she has gotten, she used to be so hot/slim/stunning/pretty…look at her lids hanging and deep wrinkles in her forehead” OR ”I see that she has done something, she doesn’t look like herself anymore” or ”she has so much filler, she took it too far”. And many chose the latter. To here that they’ve done something feels hard, than how old/haggered/tired/old they look. And I can’t say I don’t get it. If my life was so public that it is almost imposaible to just age in peace.

[@LemmyNoylin]

Irene didn't work out with the president

[@nannerz1994]

Why would you sell out of crutches at a museum they're not for sale It's a museum

[@jkap34]

Sell out of tickets, reach capacity for fire regulation, etc.

[@jkap34]

And also, gift shops at museums.

[@TonyTamiko-pn6xw]

It did not work out with Irene and Joe Biden

[@johnray527]

Yeah in her case it's really obvious and weird.

[@iorn9814]

I bet you guys can’t do a month of work straight

[@davidgeorge488]

What's wrong with her upper lip

[@justsayin5609]

Is Wiig trying to have a wardrobe malfunction? So boring I couldn't even get through it.

[@GrazingFields301]

Based on re-uploading content from few months ago, I'm guessing that Seth Meyers is finally leaving. If he does, he won't be missed.

[@tylerkeller8869]

Well apparently Seth is still on Memorial Day weekend. Must be nice. Guess you didn't get enough time away during the writers strike and all the other absurdly long breaks you get each year + millions of dollars

[@sharkulashairstylist5505]

Opps did I hurt your dumb feelings

I don't like that insolent tone. Do you wanna run things here? Is that it?
