💐🎭 A Heartfelt Note About Catherine O’Hara 🎭💐
Before anything else — with care and respect — Catherine O’Hara is thankfully still with us ❤️. There’s been confusion and rumors floating around, but she has not passed away. And honestly, that makes this moment even better, because it lets us celebrate her while she’s still here. 😊✨
🇨🇦😂 Forever SCTV Royalty
To so many of us, Catherine O’Hara will always be part of one of the greatest ensemble casts in television history — the brilliant, chaotic, lightning-in-a-bottle Canadian comedy force known as SCTV 🎤📺.
She sometimes felt overshadowed by the sheer size and talent of that cast, but make no mistake:
✨ She belonged there
✨ She shined there
✨ And she held her own among giants
Working alongside friends and allies like Eugene Levy and the unforgettable John Candy 🤝💔, Catherine brought a sharp intelligence and fearless commitment to every character.
🍸🎭 That Character… You Know the One
She had a gift for playing characters who were just a little off —
😵💫 maybe overmedicated
🥂 maybe over-served
💄 maybe holding it together by sheer will
And she made them human, hilarious, and oddly touching. That balance is rare — and she nailed it every time. 🎯😂
🎬👩👦 The Mother of the Movies
Later in her career, Catherine became something else entirely:
The Mother of the Movies ❤️🎥
From over-the-top to deeply sincere, she redefined what a “movie mom” could be. One standout favorite?
👉 The mother of Colin Hanks in Orange County 😄🎓
Sharp, funny, exasperated, and completely believable — the kind of performance that sneaks up on you and stays.
🌟💛 Grace, Humor, and Presence
Yes — she was arguably the most strikingly attractive member of SCTV ✨
But more than that, she was:
🤝 A collaborator
💡 A supporter
😂 A comic equal
In a boys’ club era, she didn’t just survive — she defined characters no one else could play.
🥂🌹 Here’s to You, Catherine
So this isn’t goodbye.
It’s a thank you. 🙏
Thank you for the laughs.
Thank you for the strange characters.
Thank you for the warmth behind the madness.
Here’s to Catherine O’Hara —
A living legend, a comic force, and someone whose work will always matter. 🥂🎭
Long may she reign. 👑✨
