Recommended Posts

I can't wait.  He is my current favorite comedian  It was Louis CK, and Mitch Helberg in the past.

This month he has a new show.  I attribute him to getting me to watch youtube instead of tv.

 

My love for him started with

Norm has be tough to make a preview for.  These dudes make those things trying to appeal to every moron that has Netflix, so they have to put in anything raunchy that happened, do fast cuts, make it look super crazy.  He has a niche appeal.  Don't bother chasing the Third Rock crowd.

Norm is the absolute funniest human on the planet.  The hardest I’ve ever laughed was at a Norm show at Cap City.  Dude was amazing and went on for like 2 hours.  My gut hurt the next day from laughing so hard.

I saw him there and he opened the set talking about Dracula’s, which is the restaurant next door.  That turned into a half hour of material about ghosts and Frankenstein and stuff.  It was genius and I was in tears.  I wish I knew if it was just coincidence that he had that much monster material and happened to get lucky and see a convenient segue or if he really did just see the restaurant and decide to talk about that stuff out of no where.

I was at that show too - if you were at the one the same time as me, my buddy's girlfriend tried to heckle/berate Norm over a joke about teachers, and they went back and forth for a solid 5-10 minutes (well, him making her look stupid). My buddy dumped her not long afterwards.

Awesome.  Just googled and someone uploaded it.  There is even a link in the first comment in youtube to where your buddy's girlfriend starts her inanities.

Jesus Christ.  She did get lit up.  I'm 10 minutes into Norm murdering her.  Start at 1:09:30.

I'm glad there was a happy ending at least.  Anyone who heckles at comedy shows deserves to be dumped and shunned by society.

Norm Macdonald’s appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” was hastily canceled Tuesday after the comedian stirred controversy with remarks about the #MeToo movement and the treatment of Louis C.K., Chris Hardwick and Roseanne in recent scandals.

“Out of sensitivity to our audience and in light of Norm Macdonald’s comments in the press today, ‘The Tonight Show’ has decided to cancel his appearance on Tuesday’s telecast,” NBC said in a statement. “Tonight Show’s” decision to drop Macdonald came even after he apologized for his comments later in the day.

Why any man feels the need to jump on this grenade is beyond me. Just STFU. 

What was a win for him here? There is no positive outcome in him speaking about this. 

Those are his friends, I guess.

Regardless if what he said was right or wrong it doesn't fucking matter in the social media instant justice world. The fact that NBC canceled his appearance is fucking laughable. I am not saying I agree with what he said but for fuck sakes it's getting ridiculous. 

 

He was on Stern this morning but I haven't listened yet.

I heard him on Stern this morning, he’s understandly shaken by the whole ordeal. The strangest part, for me, was that Kimmel explained to Norm that women working on the Tonight Show were in tears about his appearance. The fragility in Hollywood is stunningly pathetic.

Yet they are fine working for a network that ACTIVELY covered for and tried to get their own reporter's story killed to save their friend Harvey. The fact they are (allegedly) upset over a comedian's fucking appearance is so fucking beyond hypocritical is so bad it isn't actually funny.

They were probably "literally shaking" too.

The more shit like this that happens, the more I'm glad I live in Texas where we don't put up with that nonsense.
