Kristen Wiig to Retire Two ‘SNL’ Characters
Get ready to see a bit less of Kristen Wiig. In a recent interview with TIME magazine, the ubiquitous 'Saturday Night Live' cast member revealed that she is retiring two of her frequent - and arguably polarizing - characters, Gilly and Penelope. Wiig didn't elaborate on her decision to retire the characters, though she insists they will not return, not even at Lorne Michaels' request.
