Catherine O'Hara has earned more accolades for her portrayal of Moira Rose on Schitt's Creek, capturing the Screen Actors Guild award for best female actor in a comedy on Sunday.
The cast of the Canadian show, which was co-created by Eugene and Dan Levy, also won the SAG award for best comedy ensemble.
O'Hara, who also won a Golden Globe for her performance, thanked her co-stars and the series' writers during her virtual acceptance speech.
"I share this with Annie Murphy. I'm flattered anyone might believe I could be her mother. Annie is a beautiful soul," she said.
