Farewell Kristen!!

Posted May 23, 2012 10:01 AM

As you've all probably guessed (based on the last sketch from the final show of season 37,) the Mick Jagger hosted finale was Kristen Wiig's last show as a cast member here at SNL. And while we are all saddened to see her go (and will probably now cry whenever we hear "She's a Rainbow"), we thought we'd take this time to celebrate Wiig by rewatching some of her most memorable moments from this past season. Enjoy!!


She's a Rainbow
The bad news: this sketch will probably make you cry again. Sorry. The good news: we put it first so that there are plenty of sketches below that will make you laugh.


Weekend Update: Patricia Krentcil
Fun Fact: Kristen came up with that toast bit herself moments before she went out to the Update desk at Dress Rehearsal.


Super Showcase
Few things made us laugh as hard this season as we did at Shonda and Vonda showing off some Showcase Prizes.


The Californians
The way we say "Stuart" and "Marina Del Rey" will never be the same.


Weekend Update: Paula Deen
Budder and Owl.


House Sitting
"And don't you dare show up when Megan's here cuz she will kill you!"


Disney Housewives
"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, burn that dress."


Chantix
Just Kristen and Bill and some great facial acting.


Today Show
We are going to miss Kristen's boozy Kathie Lee impression.


Update: Garth & Kat
Garth, Kat and Jan Pockabook. And yes, they do make up every word on the spot as they are performing.


Kardashian Divorce Special
Kristen's Kris Jenner impression captures just the right amount of insane desperation for fame.


Update: Judy Grimes
We get all our travel advice from Judy.


GOP Debate 2
You guys, do you remember Michele Bachmann?!


Lifetime Game Show
Tanya, no!


Melissa McCarthy Monologue
Just two old friends singing and dancing on live television.


Lawrence Welk Cold Open
We will always love Dooneese.


All My Children Wrap Party
Every single character name in this sketch is perfect.


Red Flag
"She's funny, but not funny like ha-ha, funny like yikes."


Secret Word
Mindy Elise Gracin is very bad at Secret Word.


Update: Lana Del Rey
Super awkward and weird Lana Del Rey addresses the haters.


Finnish Talk Show
We have a clip!


Update: Rebecca LaRue
We're really gonna miss getting relationship advice from Rebecca. It was so slutty and perfect.
