    This one hits hard.

    If you haven’t seen Schitt’s Creek, it’s worth a watch.

      This hurts like Robin Williams hurt. She was phenomenal.

      God I hate the character so much, the vapid materialistic ignorance and fake accent sends me over the edge every time. Great acting though!

        If you hate annoying accents, I’m going to throw out my favorite.

          ‘Put the bunny back in the box’ The accent is like a late nite radio broadcast. It fades in and out with no real consistency. I love it.

          That’s got to be one of the best worst accents in theoretical history. I also love to hate it. I secretly like the movie though for nostalgia reasons.

    As a Canadian and also someone who has a Mother the same age this one hits hard. I remember watching her on reruns of SCTV here. 71, imho, is too young.

      A real gem. Take a look at “The Studio” on Apple TV. 10/10. I’ll probably rewatch and I never do that.

        Your hatred for her is so seething that you created a new account for it – respect.

          I had to make an account to make sure everyone knew how awful of a mother she truly was.

    uh, she was known for SCTV since 1976, not when Hollywood took notice.
