Yeah he did said a somethings along those lines it was hilarious, there's 2 monologs that i never forget this one and Tracy Morgan after he recovered from the accident with the wal mart truck we almost lost tracy but we lost Norm ...be safe
Because he said that the reason they invited him to host was not because he got funnier, but because the show had become really bad 😂😂. He mocked them, the writers even booed him, but the audience loved him! Snl doesnt want that video around ...
The punchline was something like him wondering what went wrong because he was a comedian that wasn’t funny anymore and then they invited him on the show again so he wondered if he had gotten funnier and how. Then he comes to the conclusion that “I didn’t get funnier-the show just got bad!”
I haven't watched this show in a while. Its my understanding McDonald got fired because of his jokes about OJ Simpson. Lorne Michaels and OJ are buddies. Michaels is the shows producer and OJ is his buddy. Correct me if I'm wrong. Norm's greatest joke "there are two different kind of cliff divers, there's your champion and, stuff on a rock." Absolutely hilarious.
Wasn't Lorne's call. Lorne loves Norm. Don Ohlmeyer who was the head of NBC at the time was the one who was buddies with OJ. Lorne has been known to ALWAYS back the comedian and go to bat for them. But he doesn't control the Television network. Ultimately, SNL is just a show on a television network that is at the mercy of the network bosses etc. They have pull, but not invincible to network management.
