Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping the work of Molly Shannon into the ol’ VCR.
I think Molly Shannon is truly one of the funniest people on this planet.
Whenever I see her in the cast of something, I immediately get giddy. Not to mention, she’s one of the best SNL alums of all time.
One thing I love about Molly Shannon is her character work. Even though she’s brought countless characters to life, it doesn’t feel like all of her characters are separate; it feels like they’re just different pieces of herself.

Her range is also incredible. You’re telling me that the same person that played Mary Katherine Gallagher also played Mrs. Fisher in a PIVOTAL scene of Promising Young Woman? Like, c’mon.
As always, there’s not much more I can say that hasn’t been said.
Molly, if you ever read this, thank you. 🖤
Without further ado, here’s some of my favorite Molly Shannon content:
- Superstar
- Serendipity
- Marie Antoinette
- Never Been Kissed
- I Love That For You
- Promising Young Woman
- Wet Hot American Summer
