Kristen Wiig is funny—got it, dummy? And hot to boot, word to Fred Smoot. And if there's one reason we'll see the turdnugget MacGruber this weekend (when we're tweakin'), it's gotta be her. After starting her SNL career in the shadow of Amy Poehler and Maya Rudolph, Kristen's now become the go-to castmember, female or male. So much so, in fact, that they're in danger of playing her out. But whatever; she's been in a ton of dope sketches on the show, as you'll see in our collection of her 5 Greatest SNL Characters.

Complex Says: CNBC financial advisor Orman was one of Kristen's first celebrity targets, helping her perfect one of her signature moves: taking annoying women and making them funny by playing them even more annoying. By the way, please tell your moms that if that's what she's trying, it ain't working.

Complex Says: Another in Wiig's so-awkwardly-annoying-it's-funny collection of characters, the overly enthusiastic, meddling Target Lady will be familiar to bargain shoppers the country over. Although, again (word to your moms), what's over-the-top hilarious on SNL becomes say-that-again-and-I'll-stab-you-in-the-temple-with-this-two-dollar-mop-handle at the South Toledo Mall & Emporium.

Complex Says: Nancy Pelosi was pretty annoying as it was, what with her KILLING OUR GODDAMN GRANDMOTHER AND ALL, so Wiig didn't have to up the gag factor too much with her impression of the Speaker of the House. Although to be fair, if Pelosi were actually as fly as Wiig, we'd be up for ramming a bill down Congress's throat any day.

Complex Says: Don't ever say Wiig's impressions aren't detailed: she's got the daytime talk show host down to the racist mumbling.

Complex Says: Wiig's Penelope is her ultimate annoying character: the constantly one-upping acquaintance everyone has. Of course, ours is more annoying than yours, what you know about that!
