Pretty sad, hope she didnt feel pain or anything.

 

[Nydius]

Damn.
RIP.

[Dacvak]

Damn man, this is a tough one. She was still actively working, too. It'll be tough not having her in The Studio.

She's absolutely dynamite in every single thing she's in, and she'll be insanely missed.

Rest in peace, legend.

 

[bitbydeath]

Are you fucking kidding me! She voiced Sally! My god. The news keeps hitting harder.

How did I not know this?
RIP Legend.

 

[Neff]

How did I not know this?
RIP Legend.

Yep, great performance. She also did the voice for Shock

 

[Duellist]

Sad news. Awesome actress and comedian. RIP to a Canadian legend.

 

[VaultBoy101]

God damn it.

Schitt's Creek is a top 5 comedy series of all time, and a large part of it is due to her performance as Moira.

 

[//DEVIL//]

She was fine in her day man. I fucking woulda.

She wouldnt...

 

[Laptop1991]

RIP, first saw her in Beetlejuice, sad news.

 

[Aurelius]

Ah, that's so sad. We just finished watching The Studio yesterday. She was great in it.

[digoutyoursoul]

She was brilliant in Beetlejuice, played the part perfectly. RIP .

 

[kruis]

Are you fucking kidding me! She voiced Sally! My god. The news keeps hitting harder.

I was completely unaware too. Sally was my favorite character in Nightmare Before Christmas. Wonderful songs and the vulnerability in that character's voice just breaks your heart ...

 

[JayK47]

She was so amazing in Schitt's Creek.

RIP

 

[FoxMcChief]

I can't think of a celebrity death that has hit me like this one. She's easily my favorite female actor.

 

[DarkShadowXI]

Home Alone will never be the same. Both parents are gone

 

[BillMaxwell]

Brooke commented on that in her tribute to Catherine today.

 

[BillMaxwell]

God fucking damn it.

Wonderful actress, effortlessly funny, and also a terrific (and underrated) director. Also fancied the absolute arse off her.

RIP

What did she direct?

 

[Neff]

What did she direct?

A few episodes of TV shows and some stage stuff, largely uncredited I think

KEVIN!!!!!

[ZehDon]

One of the rare cases where the term "legend" truly applies. What an amazing career. Hats off to an absolutely legendary actress. Thank you for all the laughs. Rest in Peace.

First time I ever saw Catherine O'Hara in anything was on the TV sketch comedy show SCTV. Her and John Candy were part of the same cast.



RIP.

RIP.

Some of her best sketch comedy routines happened on SCTV:



I think she was mostly there for the first four seasons or so... the show as only on the air for like six. That's her and John Candy.

 

[DetectiveBananas]

I'm going picture her getting a big hug from John Candy up in heaven!
This is on par with losing Robin Williams. She was a big part of my entertainment upbringing and was exceptional in so many roles.

 

[Jilted]

Yeah this fuckin sucks. Home Alone 1 and 2 are an important part of my families Christmas routine every single year. They will hit different this year when we watch them together again. RIP.

 

[MrCunningham]

Video had like 64 million views and is the most popular thing that is connected to the movie Beetlejuice. The original Beetlejuice is still one of my favorite movies of all time.

 

[The Fartist]

Fucking legend. there will never be another. RIP.

 

[Dirk Benedict]

Home Alone will never be the same. Both parents are gone

I always enjoy their screen presence when they're on. HA 1 and 2 are both solidified Christmas Classics, at this point.

 

[John Marston]

 

[poodaddy]

One of the best comedic actresses of all time.

This is a gargantuan, monumental loss. This was an immensely talented woman, so likable, so funny, and also just a great actress.

 

[Dirk Benedict]

She's always been this cute, attractive woman, to me. When I saw some of her last photos, she looked underweight, like something had been attacking her from within.
I don't know how she passed and when I tried to find out, I couldn't. So, I'm merely guessing.

 

[Raven117]

Truly one of the best comedic character actors ever.

I miss that kind of comedy.

 

[John Marston]

I don't know how she passed and when I tried to find out, I couldn't. So, I'm merely guessing.

My guess is of course cancer.

Like Diane Keaton she was all class and kept it private.

 

[kpopSuperstar]

She was great, RIP.

 

[Syphon Filter]

R.I.P Catherine, let the angels let you fly

 

[John Marston]

 

[ResilientBanana]

A class act has left us. RIP.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

Big RIP to her, she was great every time she appeared on a screen. I absolutely love her in Beetlejuice, it's especially funny being from New York.
