Kristen Wiig is Mindy Gracin in Secret Word (Justin Timberlake)

Gameshow - Secret Word

Justin Timberlake ... The Mysterious Crandell
Abby Elliott ... contestant
Bill Hader ... Lyle Round
Steve Higgins ... announcer (voice)
Bobby Moynihan ... Tavi
Kristen Wiig ... Mindy Gracin

It's the game show that the stars play. Just keep the secret word a secret!



Kristen was only in two skits this week, and this was the only regular character she did.

The other skit (Liquorville), is a regular for Justin Timbelake (his dancing mascot), that he started with Chris Parnell in 2003, but it's not online. He competed with Will Forte in 2006 and 2009. This time he competed with Kristen Wiig and Lady Gaga.

I'm not 100% sure why they keep doing this Secret Word skit (this is the 5th time and the 3rd time this season). My guess is that the hosts like the opportunity to play old 60s characters. But even so, there's got to be a better way to do that.

Regardless, it's got funny moments; it's just hard to sustain the humor throughout the whole skit.

What do you think?

Enjoy!
