Catherine O’Hara (1954–2026)

“‘You’re so lucky if you’re raised with humor,’ she said. ‘It’s one of God’s greatest gifts, because life is full of the dark and the light. You gotta look for the light‘”: Catherine O’Hara, actor and comedian, quoted in a New York Times obituary.

I’ve followed Catherine O’Hara’s work since the SCTV days. I’m glad that Elaine and I stuck with Schitt’s Creek despite being unpersuaded by the first couple of episodes: O’Hara’s Moira Rose was the role of a lifetime.
