Relive Maya Rudolph's Best 'SNL' Characters (VIDEO)



Maya Rudolph returns to NBC tonight for her very own variety show, which is appropriately titled "The Maya Rudolph Show."



The versatile comedian, who starred in "Bridesmaids" and "Up All Night," will be joined by other funny famous faces on the program, such as Andy Samberg, Kristen Bell, and Fred Armisen for some sketch comedy, musical numbers, and a little TV throwback fun.



Maya graced "Saturday Night Live" from 2000-2007, showcasing her comic chops through many memorable characters and spot-on impressions. The funny lady brought us everything from a temperamental Donatella Versace to a Scandinavian art dealer named Nooni.



So, before you check out Maya's new gig, remember some of the best of her "SNL" moments:



Maya's Beyonce was a classic, and she revived the impression this past Saturday night spoofing (duh) the Jay-Z / Solange incident:







Here she is as Donatella Versace:





Maya and Amy Poehler played Betty and Jodi on public access show spoof "Bronx Beat" to accented perfection:





We would be remiss if we didn't add one performance as one half of quirky Scandinavian couple Nooni and Nuni:





And who could forget the adorkable Megan on middle school A/V program "Wake Up Wakefield"?:





And, last but not least, a round of applause for the always fabulous Oprah:
