Page "The Church Lady" Paragraph 3

The Church Lady is known for always wearing a purple dress, a sweater, visible knee-high stockings, and a pair of cat's eye horn-rimmed glasses.

She was known for the catchphrases, “ Well, isn't that SPE-CIAL?

!”, " How con-VEEN-ient!

", and “ Could it be ... SATAN ?” ( in later years, the latter would always end with a haunting echo ).

When sufficiently satisfied with herself, she would mug for the camera, while twitching the corners of her mouth from one side to the other for an indefinite length of time.

She also gave advice in response to letters she ostensibly received.

Furthermore, whenever she felt that she had demonstrated her superiority, she would do her " Superior dance " in which she would rhythmically strut to organ music ( played by an organist named Pearl ) in front of her alleged inferiors.

Like her actor and several of his well known characters, she is a proficient drummer although this is only seen once.
