RussTCB Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Norm Macdonald has passed away at 61 from cancer. This sucks. Absolutely one of the best to ever do it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downzy Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 He was easily one of the funniest and most unique voices in comedy. Sad to hear he passed. His show on Netflix was amazing and I was looking forward to future seasons. This is easily one of the funniest moments in late night television of all time: It still kills me every time I watch it, nearly 25 years later. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted September 14, 2021 Author Share Posted September 14, 2021 Norm Macdonald was one of the best to ever do it. Every aspiring comedian should be forced to study his timing and delivery. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknroll41 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 (edited) Damn shame. He was one of my favorites! His overall “demeanor” really inspired me to go through life without giving too much of a fuck (something I’m still working on to this day). His family must be devastated. Seemed like he really loved his kid. :_( RIP Edited September 14, 2021 by rocknroll41 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lame ass security Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 (edited) His Burt Reynolds impersonation on those Jeopardy skits was side splitting hilarious. And of course, he was great on Weekend Update. He was merciless on OJ Simpson, classic stuff.

JONEZY Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 When the OJ verdict came out, Norm said on SNL, "Well its official, double murder is legal in California ." Rip Norm!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlingrl03 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 I grew up watching him on SNL- hilarious guy!!! So sad. RIP funny man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jw224 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Absolute gut punch. One of my favourite comedians and definitely one of the best to ever do it. From his stand up to his various appearances in media throughout the years you always knew it was gonna be a fun time if Norm was there. Rip man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Martin Riggs Posted September 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2021 This one has literally made me cry multiple times this morning. He was my favorite of all time and the best talk show guest ever. He had a genuine hilarity about him that was coupled with a courageous twinkle in his eye attitude that had large sprinkles of actual wisdom on top of it. I hope his deep faith is being proven correct today. Love you Norm. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 I was just reminded of one of my favorite Norm jokes: "at nunber one on the Billboard charts this week, Better Than Ezra. At number two........Ezra" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jw224 Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 (edited) I have watched his appearances on Conan countless times. I wondered why he didn't appear on the finale but I guess we now know. I think his tweet about him is quite touching.

Jw224 Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Norm Macdonald's friend and fellow comedian Bob Saget (The one he was roasting above) posted a video talking about Norm, it's quite emotional in parts but he speaks very highly of him.
