Eartha Kitt's Catwoman crashes SNL

Post by Ben Bentley »

Holy multi-verse! This week's guest host of SNL is Zoe Kravitz (the franchise's latest Catwoman) and her monologue was "crashed" by some former incarnations of the character...

Man, if there were to ever be a movie about the show, Ego could definitely play the part of Eartha. That was pretty neat.

That was fun, but my favorite sketch-comedy take on Eartha's Catwoman is still Debra Wilson's, from MadTV back in the early 90s. The costume isn't as accurate as SNL's, but she nailed Eartha's purr.

Wow Debra Wilson does nail Eartha! was this a recurring bit on Mad TV?
Ego is one of my favorite, but underused, current SNL cast members.

IMHO, Debra did a better job as Catwoman than Haillie! I'd forgotten about MadTV. She sure has the moves down. I have to say that I actually like her better than Eartha! :lol:

It recurred, but only once. :) The YouTube video contains both of MadTV's Catwoman sketches.

Fun side note: Phil Lamarr, who plays Andy in the first sketch, later provided the voice of Green Lantern in the the DCAU Justice League shows.
