Norm MacDonald

Norm is class.

He hosted the SNL News for a few years until the wife of one of the NBC executives said that he wasn't funny.

Norm loves to try and slip the word 'cock' into live televised shows in the States as often as he can as well. Nothing like shaking up the Bible Belt in the middle of the night.

COCK !!

Norm McDonald is my favourite comedian ever, such that if you asked me who my favourite comedians were I probably wouldn't even mention him because in my head it's just such an assumed thing.

His standup was fantastic but check out the Conan O'Brien interview with Courtney Thorne-Smith for my favourite comeback from any interview ever. Someone has put the audio of all his Fake News on SNL on youtube, oooh if only I had the video! Would make for a good Christmas present.

I think Norm deserves a bump. I've been a huge fan of his for years. Was lucky enough to be in the States when he was on Celebrity Who Wants To Be A Millionaire to see his genius!

The idea was every celebrity got a go so the answering the question quickest thing they do to select the next contestant was irrelevant. On purpose Norm didn't answer any time it was up. Much to the frustration of the others. So of course he's on the show for the whole week because he's the last contestant to go. The guy got to the Million dollar question and only didn't answer it because he was guilted by Regis because it was for Charity and not to risk it....he would have been right too with his answer.

Love him on Stern, Conan, Dennis Miller, Daily Show and Letterman too. I could watch him all day.

If you haven't heard this yet, you need to:



Some of my favourite Norm moments are his Thanks giving speech to Conan..."I'm thankful for bread, I hear it tastes delicious, I haven't tried it myself" and "last of all Conan, I'm thanksful for friends. YES, CONAN, FRIENDS....especially the one where Chandler buy Joey the duck"

On Howard Stern talking about how after his sitcom he thought he could retire and he wouldn't be mega rich but he could at least move to a small town and be the richest guy there. Like Spokane, Iowa or something and he does an impression of a redneck "Why over there is Roy Johnsons house, richest guy in town, Why that house costs over 100 thousand dollars"

The Moth Joke is masterful.

He had me at Pediatrists office...most his jokes are old jokes remastered.

It was funny when he was on Conan...he's had a long running private joke insinuating Andy Richter is gay so every time he's on the show he tells a gay Andy joke.

The one he told about how Andy was a male prostitute and made something like 9,500 dollars and 15 cents the night before by turning tricks...

Conan asks, who on earth gave him the 15 cents?

All of them...ya see Conan that works out that Andy had sex with over 6 thousand men.

In fairness Andy's comeback was probably even better. "Norm says he's matured as a comic and I think I know why, it's because he's telling my grandfathers jokes"

Norm on the WTF Podcast.

I'm loving his Podcast, unfortunately he's not doing one next week but will be back on the 10th.

I love this!!

Love Norm
heard him on Adam Carollas podcast and Bill Simmons podcast a while back and both of them were some of his funniest interviews ever

How do you know it's returning!?? I know the channel were saying months ago it may return but nothing was official

Norm's gotten his own chat show on Netflix as a result of his youtube show!

Of his recent interviews, I really enjoyed the Dana Carvey, Bill Hader and Stephen Merchant (the best - Norm really f*cked with him!)
