There really is a booming business in dubbing U.S. shows for foreign language-markets, but despite Kristen Wiig's insistence on Thursday's Late Night, she and Fred Armisen probably aren't part of it. The premise of this bit is that Wiig dubs Seth Meyers' voice on Late Night and, when he has a guest, Armisen does the guest. This makes no sense, of course, and neither does their improv banter over old Late Night clips. But it's Kristen Wiig and Fred Armisen, so absurd is funny. You can watch below. Peter Weber
