Am not usually one to post these kinds of threads but this is so sad. I've loved her since childhood and am currently in the middle of a Schitt's Creek binge to take my mind off the usual winter bugs. She was such a fantastic actress and so, so funny.

It’s so sad. I loved her in the Christopher Guest movies. RIP

I always think people like @Netcurtainnelly are probably fetishist men seeking a good bollocking from MN to wank off to..... can't we just all agree to ignore them? 😅

Ah so sad, Moira Rose is an absolute icon 🌹💔

In future, since you obviously have internet access, may I recommend you try a useful little tool called a 'search engine, which would quickly answer your question. Hope this helps.

Oh no! She was fabulous as Moira Rose

firstofallimadelight · 30/01/2026 20:06

She seems far too young. How sad

If you don't know who it is why would you come on the thread?

Also everyone here is a person in real life and we all knew exactly who it was so that rather nullifies your point...

Pretty much everyone I know in real life knows who she is.

I assume you must be the only person on the planet who hasn't seen Home Alone.

What sad news, she was such a great actress.

I haven't seen it, so pp is not the only one, but how crass to ask 'who'? I know her from SC and all the Christopher Guest films...she was great in Waiting for Guffman, as well as Best in Show.

My 16 year old came racing down the stairs to tell me.

He's real too IRL.

Very sad to hear this today. A real part of most peoples childhood as Mrs Mcallister in Home Alone and I loved her in Schitts Creek too.

Most people will not.

So sad, she was no age!

Wrong. Just because you don’t know doesn’t mean others don’t.
