Koechner is grotesquely right as Nathan, and Saturday Night Live graduate Wiig is far more appealing and nuanced than the sweatpant routine would suggest. Collins, practically unrecognizable as the sweet love interest from Sunshine Cleaning earlier this year, is turning into the chameleon to watch...
