Catherine O’Hara – famous for her work in “Schitt’s Creek,” “Home Alone,” and “Best In Show” – is dead … TMZ has learned.
RIP funny lady.
Well fuck.
2026 took away from us the wrong star from Home Alone 2…
2026 took away from us the wrong
starbit part cameo actor from Home Alone 2…FTFY
There is still time.
To much time. Maybe if it was Dec. 30th I’d feel better
Assuming someone had guaranteed that 2026 would take care of “it”…
I am so sad right now.
Pretty rough day for news.
Why? What else happened? I’m just waking up.
Trump arresting journalists.
only a problem in shitholes.
That’s very short-sighted
Or for people who live next to shitholes. Or have any natural resources that people who live in shitholes want. Or live anywhere where an elected representative has hurt the ego of the shithole in chief.
Or who live on a planet affected by e.g. the [anti-]environmental policies of said shithole.
Very insightful.
Outside of the obvious Home Alone and Schitt’s Creek, what are some of her works that I can go back and watch to honor her memory?
SCTV, Best in Show, Waiting for Guffman, A Mighty Wind, Beetlejuice, oh, so many…and cartoon voices, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Committed. She was everywhere and I can assuredely say, welcome.
I forgot about Beetlejuice
Most recently, The Studio on Apple TV
So many names I would rather see in the headline instead
Sad caw sounds
The last time one of our photogs saw Catherine was at LAX in February 2024 … when we asked her what role she would most want to be remembered for.
Author then neglects to say what her answer was now that it is most relevant…
Im guessing the answer is in the video above that paragraph, so we’ll never know.
If you’re putting info in a video in a news article, you may as well bury it beneath the sands of the taklamakan desert.
“The mother of my children.” is the quote from the video.
You have provided a great public service. Thank you.
Goodness, I had to write something referencing the Taklimakan desert just a few days ago so it’s bizarre to see it mentioned.
It was the funniest sounding desert i could remember off the top of my head.
Couldn’t have even told you there was a video on the page. I mostly browse the news while I’m at work, avoiding doing work. I have trained myself to ignore videos on news articles because I can’t have the sound on. So yeah, info in a video embedded on a news site doesn’t exist for me.
100%. I only spotted it because i read your comment before the article.
I am devastated right now. If trump doesn’t die this year then there is no justice in the world.
…oh man. I don’t know how to tell you this…
2026 can eat a bag of dicks

It seriously can. Fuck it’s still only January.
david bowie, alan rickman, catherine o’hara. why does january suck?
David Bowie died a decade ago.
“Sorry, it’s been a rough year…”
“Lemon, it’s January.”
Still not even February
God damn… January was 3years long
I’ve been waking up every morning for work (I work outside mostly) seeing the weather station start with a -2X Celsius for what feels like 3 weeks now.
My body is so exhausted…
Catherine famously played Macaulay Culkin’s mother in the first two ‘Home Alone’ movies … and she appeared as Moira Rose in 80 episodes of “Schitt’s Creek.”
Other notable movie credits include a couple mockumentaries in 2000’s “Best in Show,” and 2003’s “A Mighty Wind” … plus “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” and the OG “Beetlejuice.”
How fucking ignorant is TMZ. She was famous way before that for SCTV. The irreplacable Lola Heatherton.

She could break my Christmas balls like no one else
Rest in peace, she was an iconic actress, and very very funny.

Even 71 is too early, what happened?
Well that’s some bullshit right there. She was amazing.
This is very sad news. She was great in every role.
“Oh they’re comin.’ Oh they’re comin.’ And watch out they got a lot of kids!”
