While Anchorman Ron Burgundy or his Talladega Nights character Ricky Bobby-or on this DVD, his portrayal of Robert Goulet or Swiss superspy Luxury-are men at the top of their field who have been spoiled by their success, the actor also has a tendency to play characters who experience a bitter pain from failure. One thing I'm reminded of watching these bits again is how far out on the emotional edge Ferrell sometimes takes his characters. Saturday Night Live: Best of Will Ferrell - Volume Three is another strong collection of some of the performer's best moments and best characters, and this one is not just limited to skits from his time as a cast member, but also draws from his return stints as guest host of the sketch comedy series. To capitalize on this, and also probably to remind audiences how funny he can be after duds like Blades of Glory and Land of the Lost, the folks at SNL have done a repackaging of the earlier Best of Will Ferrell compilation discs and also put together a third one. This summer, Ferrell is going for it again, starring in The Other Guys with Mark Wahlberg. His comedy is absurdist, it is awkward, and at its best, hilarious. Ferrell is the one who set the standard for characters who believe they are unstoppable, and forge ahead with their crazy ideas with unquenchable fury, not realizing they aren't nearly as awesome as they think.

The prolific comedian has had a series of hits and misses over the years, and had his share of cash-grabs, but his style has been one of the defining factors of 21st-century comedy. He was on the show for 7 seasons, from 1995 to 2002, and managed to spin his unique brand of blowhard humor first into bit parts in other people's comedies and then transforming into his own production juggernaut.

Nevertheless, Kristen's time as a cast member has come to an end, which means that hopefully we'll soon see a "Best of Kristen Wiig" DVD. Just this season alone, we've had Jimmy Fallon, Maya Rudolph, and Will Ferrell all return to host (also Ben Stiller, who was technically a cast member for a few months in 1989), and Darrell Hammond, Rachel Dratch, Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, Horatio Sanz, Chris Kattan, Tracy Morgan, Ana Gasteyer, Will Forte, and Chris Parnell all came back for cameos (Jimmy and Maya actually cameoed as well, in addition to their hosting). If you've made your mark as a good cast member, then you'll be invited back for years to come. And while we are of course sad to see her go, we know that she hasn't left forever. While the futures of Andy Samberg and Jason Sudeikis on Saturday Night Live are still in question, one thing is for sure - Kristen Wiig has left the show.
