News RIP Catherine O'Hara

Very funny lady with an amazing career, was good to great in just about everything she was in


My personal favorite was probably Cookie Fleck, the whore wife in Best In Show, she was so frickin' hilarious as she played off Eugene Levy's uncomfortable awkwardness





They had such great chemistry on screen and able to play off each other. Which is obviously why they did so many projects together. I'm gonna go back and watch Schitt's Creek again. I love Annie Murphy in that show too. I would say it's very underrated overall. I don't hear it get talked about much, but you gotta enjoy that type of humor.
I had no idea she was even sick.

They are playing and singing for real in the video below . Catherine had several characters in the SCTV days , they weren't always funny but somehow that didn't matter because it was interesting , sometimes they nailed it

 
Very sad to hear about this. God, she was so funny.

Glad to see people posting her SCTV vids.

SCTV season 1 is the greatest comedy I've ever seen.

RIP and God bless Catherine. Thank you for the laughs.

That's unfortunate to hear. She was awesome. Hadn't seen her in anything recent but I'm sure she was still great.

RIP.
 
Really sad to hear. Comedy legend and by all accounts a very kind, likable person. Hell of a career too between SCTV, Beetlejuice, Home Alones, the Christopher Guest mockumentaries, Schitt’s Creek and more. She was just recently on Rogen’s show that got all that acclaim and awards. RIP.
