This week, Kristen Wiig encapsulated that awkwardness, saying she &#8220;floundered a bit&#8221; after leaving the show.<\/p>\n<p>The comedian <a href=\"http:\/\/news.yahoo.com\/kristen-wiig-talks-life-snl-felt-little-lost-221633721.html\">told<\/a> Access Hollywood that she &#8220;felt a little lost&#8221; after her seven-year stint on the show was over.  She related that the demanding six-day work week and the fact that cast members &#8220;live and breathe the show&#8221; made it difficult to adjust to a new life.<\/p>\n<p>Now, however, Wiig has found her footing.  The star is currently set to star in movies such as <em>Anchorman: The Legend Continues<\/em> and <em>The Skeleton Twins<\/em>.  She will also be providing voice work for the animated films <em>Despicable Me 2<\/em> and <em>How to Train Your Dragon 2<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Wiig first appeared on Saturday Night Live in 2005.  During her time with the show, she was nominated for four Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series.  Her final episode of SNL ended with host Mick Jagger kicking off a rendition of the Rolling Stones song &#8220;Ruby Tuesday,&#8221; which plays while current and former cast members dance with Wiig in turn.<\/p>\n<p><center><object width=\"616\" height=\"346\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.hulu.com\/embed\/5cfcft1xvzv6dxubd2m9hw\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.hulu.com\/embed\/5cfcft1xvzv6dxubd2m9hw\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\"  width=\"512\" height=\"288\" allowFullScreen=\"true\"><\/embed><\/object><\/center><\/p>\n<p>(Image courtesy Jiro Schneider\/Wikimedia Commons)<\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=aMWWacnjels:ZdC391dW4xA:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=aMWWacnjels:ZdC391dW4xA:wF9xT3WuBAs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=aMWWacnjels:ZdC391dW4xA:wF9xT3WuBAs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=aMWWacnjels:ZdC391dW4xA:7Q72WNTAKBA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=7Q72WNTAKBA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=aMWWacnjels:ZdC391dW4xA:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=aMWWacnjels:ZdC391dW4xA:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=aMWWacnjels:ZdC391dW4xA:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=aMWWacnjels:ZdC391dW4xA:mfZ73u_VV2s\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=aMWWacnjels:ZdC391dW4xA:mfZ73u_VV2s\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/webpronews\/all\/~4\/aMWWacnjels\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many comedians use Saturday Night Live as a jumping off point for a long and successful movie or TV career, but the transition between the two can often be awkward.
