She seems nervous. I hope she does well on SNL.

Spoilers - She did.

She is naturally like this,, i liked her in movies where she was supposed to act nervous,,, i used to think she is acting

Won’t last a year. Seems one dimensional. Could never carry a scene. Maybe she could get a job at Wal-Mart. She seems she’d be good with returns and such.

Conan has that awesome unique ability to be funny and witty, without being mean. A truly skillful artistic gift. And of course, Kristen is always awesome with the vulnerable and honest style of comedy. 2 mvps here.

If you haven't seen her and Ben Stiller in The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you do so. Unexpectedly awesome performances and movie.

I could not agree more. Ditto for Skeleton Twins.

[@MrGenexxx]

Unexpectedly??

[@clevelandbci9562]

@@MrGenexxx Yes. The reviews weren't too good, there were no award nominations, and Stiller and Wiig weren't known as serious actors. I gave it a shot anyway, and was glad I did. Easily one of my all-time favorites.

[@danielmorris3687]

@@mc76 Skeleton Twins is a hidden gem of a film that I'm always recommending to people. Kristen and Bill Hader both give unbelievably good performances that prove their dramatic chops are as great as their comedic ones.
