61...damn that's young

[Disoblige]

Norm McDonald and Kevin Nealon are some of the funniest people I have listened and watched. To think Norm was 61 and Kevin is 67.

Simply gone too young.

[Buster]

I would go see his show whenever he came through. He was amazing live.

Me too. Half the fun was watching people walk out. Like, were they just out for a Friday evening stroll and figured they'd wander in to the ol' Comedy Club and see what sort of assumedly clean, Christian humour they expected to find??! Then leave, onnaccounta they found it shockingly offensive?!

[JRSC00LUDE]

Well shit. I don't think you can replicate his style and delivery, I found it brilliant and hilarious. But I take my comedy how I take your mom, dry.

[Darkane]

RIP Yaphit.

[D'z Nutz]

Man, I loved whenever he came on Conan cause you could never tell what you were gonna get and his delivery was always on point.

Still one of my favourite SNL scenes of all time was when Patrick Stewart was the guest and he played the devil and Norm MacDonald was one of his minions. I still laugh thinking of his expression when he said "Til the cows come home?" and that was back in 1994.

Note to self: Don't die from Cancer!

RIP.

[ThePenIsMightier]

I still have the picture on display from our meet & greet that was in 2011 where I got to meet Norm and Kevin Farley.
We bumped into Norm at the casino later that evening and I joked with him that the meet & greet was a rip-off on account a I'm just seeing him in the damn casino, anyways! He laughed and then refused to take a picture with me because he insisted on taking one with my girlfriend, instead.

This is way worse than the hypocrisy...

[Buster]

This is easily the worst news I got before lunch.

Wtf is wrong with some of you lol... :guns:

Just because you don't understand the difference between "was 61" and "is 67" ain't my fault.

[Gman.45]

I just watched his 9/11 video on his YouTube channel a few days ago, and he was still working on his YT show that day. What a trooper, to work right up until the end. I've been subscribed to his "I'm not Norm" channel since forever. Very surprised to hear about his passing today, a serious WTF moment ensued.

This truly sucks, I'm going to miss him and his YT channel antics - a lot.

[ThePenIsMightier]

Just because you don't understand the meaning was "was 61" and "is 67".

Again - you know it wasn't me. So just point at who to Neg, and I'll fuckin paint them red. Us white folks gotta stick together.

Fuck!

All the people who neg rep me are too much of a pussy to say who they actually are.

I am finding myself extremely upset by this. It's not going away.
I am crying while watching him talk about the tender moments of a father comforting his kids while they sleep before his entire life's memory is soured by his accidental, auto erotic suicide.
He was the greatest. Ever.
I am uncomfortable about how upsetting this is. I'm not sure where to put this.

[mr2mike]

Yeah his not giving a shit what anyone thought and just said it needs to still be a thing without getting cancelled or career ending.
Some greatness on this video.

On account a the greatest of the greats up and fuckin dying.

[googe]

We can talk about Norm in a minute, but first I would like to get an update on Janice

[googe]

Wait how did no one post this one yet

I found his hand movements really distracting in that one, he seemed nervous as hell. No problems with delivery though.

[max_boost]

Been watching a lot of Norm clips. RIP.

[asp integra]

So many Norm clips lately. I'm happy to have seen him live a few years back at the Hotel Blackfoot.
Some of the best of Norm are the long rambling jokes, "Professor of logic", "Moth joke", "Dolphin Joke" etc all come to mind.

I saw him at every opportunity. Never heard the same joke twice. Always drew you in like he was just winging it, then bam.

[ThePenIsMightier]

He was no quisling.

I loved The Sports Show. Here's a garbage time segment eviscerating both the WNBA and Bruce Jenner.

NSFW.
Sometimes I wish I knew how to weld and sometimes I don't.

Skip first 1:58 as it's essentially gibberish before the real joke starts.

I feel he wrote most of the joke about himself.

We've got the same youtube algorithm clearly. Haha

Over the top was a great movie. I'll fight anyone who disagrees.

I remember a long time ago. There was a car show maybe Driven To Perform?! There was a tie on an award. The contenders had to arm wrestle for the prize.
The one contestant did the old "Over the Top" flip his hat backwards.

Norm Macdonald Shot Final Netflix Stand-Up Special Before Passing

...

Netflix will release the surprise program — Norm Macdonald: Nothing Special‚ on May 30.

[JRSC00LUDE]

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/norm-macdonald-netflix-special-1235145692/

This is the best news. I was hoping to be the first to post it this morning!

[D'z Nutz]

If you listen the beginning of latest episode of the Fly on the Wall podcast (the episode with Jim Downey), David Spade talks about the special. Basically he and all of Norm's friends and people he worked with were performing at his memorial recently and they were invited to watch a private screening of this afterwards. He said the material is really rough cause Norm never got a chance to polish it since all the clubs were closed cause of COVID and that he looks gaunt in it, but the jokes are what you'd expect from him and he was still very sharp.

As I understand it, it wasn't intended as a Netflix special, but an hour's worth of material he was working on and wanted to be released in case he died and Netflix just turned it into a special by adding interviews with other comedians and footage of his memorial.

Actually the whole episode is a good listen if you're a Norm MacDonald fan, cause Jim Downey was a good friend of his and talks about writing for Weekend Update and what led up to both of them getting fired from SNL. There's some Farley stories in there too.

[88CRX]

Was dying laughing watching Norms Netflix special last night. Classic Norm jokes. A+, highly recommended, would watch again.
