Absolutely brilliant how he could stay on one theme for so long, something so simple as sitting in the back of a car, and pull seemingly limitless, hilarious, and universal material from it.
@@AmmoGus1 First time I saw a Norm video he was FAT!!! And Russell Brand was his guest. I just could not figure out why Brand was talking to this fat guy who kept telling him about lying on top of a lady.... Dressed in old dirty sweats... IMHO
I only discovered him 3 mths ago. I'm no idolator . He is still destroying me with all his intelligence Emotional intellectuals! : " 'wwtba millionaire' ..crazee crazee. Bi have heard the same jokes many times and I guffaw louder n louder each time It's like he infused us with the madness of constant happiness. Caring about us as he was dying. Teaching us the essence. His sincerity knew no bounds.His love moreso
He was 29 or 30 here but he looks much younger. And I'm just realizing, he reminds me a great deal of my lovely, funny college boyfriend. Tall, skinny, with those sensitive hands, sparkling eyes, sharp mind and ineffable air of innocence and mischief. Suddenly a few things make sense LOL...I guess my taste is consistent! Miss you, Norm. You were the very best, and the most loveable, too. You deserved so many more years of life, and we all deserved so many more years of you.
Norm's style and delivery changed a bit over time, but the one thing that never changed, was his inclusion of hats in jokes. That's right, Norm loves hat jokes.
“In a brilliant move during closing arguments, Simpson attorney Johnnie Cochran put on the knit cap prosecutors say O.J. wore during the night of the murders. Although O.J. may have hurt his case when he suddenly blurted out, ‘Hey, hey. Easy with that! That’s my lucky stabbing hat!’”
@@whataloadofbollox you know my wife, she doesent laugh at my jokes, so I asked her, why don't you laugh, she said she was laughing all night long at a norm Macdonald show. I tell ya I get no respect!
It really liked the fact it was unproduced. It looks like it was filmed as a final test for some material. He filmed it and was timing it. Club stand up is a skill and Norm was a master.
@@good2seeyou763 Did not know that. In the 1960's many people had a copy. The covers were all the same deep red colour. My son's mother destroyed mine. But i'm not angry anymore.
Thanks for the closed caption, I accidentally went deaf with getting old. Although I can hear with the right headphones I know that if they break I can come back here and laugh as Amazon delivers the next pair. I miss Norm, he was my favorite Comedian.
@@thomasnc It was thickest when he talked about putting a big driveway in front of your 'hoase' and truckers would show up. Although, to be fair, that feature ranges form the Dakotas to Buffalo I think.
That hit home. I had a grade six teacher that was the BEST. EVER. SHe was our mom, friend and, helper for ANYTHING we needed. .. . RITA. In 1982 Gatineau. She gave the whole class 50cebnt mini-Loto tickets for Christmas. She got FIRED because we were wre underaged..And lotteries are only for adults.. The saddest day of my life, even if it was grade 6 and I,d never see her again anyways.
His delivery is soo perfect. I've been searching for anything I haven't heard before and I guess I've seen them all. What a shame there won't be any more.
I’m Norms biggest fan. He knows what he’s doing and was plenty polished. He did the back seat middle on his first A&E Improv a year or two later. I disagree with people here who thinks he is testing stuff out and still green. He had been working steady since early eighties and was just about ready to break here. He looked young but he was already a killer act.
Funny, handsome, so funny 😂. Loved him on the “fake” news. He came back from that situation better than ever & now he’s making his idols laugh in Heaven. RIP Norm 🙏☮️✝️💜
I can relate to the back seat passenger bit. 2 of my best friends in high school always sat in the front of his 73 beetle. I was always the back seat passenger. This bit brought back memories. LOL. Haven't seen those ass clowns in 35 years.
How gorgeous was he? Oh, Norm! I'm so, SO sorry you left us. I'm so sincerely sorry for your close friends & family's loss. You were just an amazingly, lovely, funny person. Why are you gone & the Rump still here to torment us? If there were a deity, this would NEVER happen. I miss you so much. xx
This was such a great routine by Norm. Thanks for posting it. I haven’t read all the comments; wonder if the guy who got kicked out left one. Nah, he’s probably still trying to find himself one of them hats.
So, there was this guy named Norm, yeah, from Canada..he was the norm of Canada,...but not Canadas norm. Well, fuck, yes he was CANADAS NORM🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
