There was a bittersweet inevitability to Catherine O\u2019Hara\u2019s posthumous<\/a> Actor Award<\/a> win for her role as batty former studio head Patty on The Studio. As with all her roles, O\u2019Hara\u2019s turn on the show was ballsy and strange, both larger-than-life and perfectly pitched<\/a>. When Lisa Kudrow announced O\u2019Hara\u2019s name during the 2026 SAG-AFTRA ceremony, she did so with a wry smile, and nearly everyone in the auditorium rose to their feet to honor O\u2019Hara as Seth Rogen took the stage to accept the award on her behalf.<\/p>\n It would have felt wrong, maybe, to go all-out sentimental for O\u2019Hara, so Rogen gave his former co-star a loving tribute with just the right amount of edge. \u201cPretty much every evening before she had a shooting day, she would email me and Evan [Goldberg] an email that was pretty similar. It said, \u2018Hello, I hope you\u2019ll consider the following,\u2019 and then there would be a completely rewritten version of the scene she was in,\u201d he said with his trademark Rogen-ian chuckle, adding that \u201cshe really showed that you can be a genius and be kind, and one of those things does not have to come at the expense of the other in any way, shape, or form.\u201d Rogen ended his speech with a plea for people watching to keep showing O\u2019Hara\u2019s work to others in their lives. \u201cTell the people as they are laughing, \u2018That\u2019s Catherine O\u2019Hara, and we are lucky we got to live in a world where she so generously shared her talents with us.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n Related<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Catherine O\u2019Hara received a posthumous Actor Award, and Seth Rogen accepted it on her behalf by begging people…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":324648,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[81078,149917,3288,150579,133167,321,921,1049,93,19303,61,60,81079,6924,96665,282],"class_list":{"0":"post-324647","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-actor-awards","9":"tag-actor-awards-2026","10":"tag-apple-tv","11":"tag-best-in-show","12":"tag-catherine-ohara","13":"tag-celebrities","14":"tag-celebrity","15":"tag-comedy","16":"tag-entertainment","17":"tag-gold-rush","18":"tag-ie","19":"tag-ireland","20":"tag-sag-awards","21":"tag-seth-rogen","22":"tag-the-studio","23":"tag-tv"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/324647","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=324647"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/324647\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/324648"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=324647"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=324647"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=324647"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
