Almost four decades ago, during a 1978 interview on CBC with Paul Soles, the esteemed Canadian actress, comedian, and writer Catherine O’Hara showcased her early comedic talent in a beloved skit featuring a spoof commercial for a product named “Milk of Amnesia.”
In the skit, O’Hara humorously expressed the desire to unwind and escape the day’s challenges by indulging in a glass of Philips Milk of Amnesia, allowing the stresses of the day to fade away into oblivion.
To celebrate O’Hara’s nomination for the Best Performance by an Actress in a Continuing Leading Comedic Role at the Canadian Screen Awards for her role as Moira Rose on “Schitt’s Creek,” CBC Arts unearthed this archival gem. Take a moment to relax, enjoy, and reminisce about the infectious laughter that O’Hara has brought to audiences over the years.
