Hey man... You should probably sit down. I have some troubling news for you...

One of favorites is him playing Burt Reynolds with Daryl Hammond as Sean Connery. If you can die laughing, Celebrity Jeopardy is how I choose to go!

I loved it when he showed up on My Name is Earl as the son of a character that was played by Burt Reynolds.

It's such a lazy impression but it works somehow.

I don't think that video has enough padding for extra video time.

[–]my_next_account 43 ポイント44 ポイント  (10子コメント)

  • Amazingly low resolution

  • 10+ second irrelevant intro made by a clear amateur

  • Unnecessary caption that covers an unnecessarily large portion of the video

  • Typo in caption

  • Caption visible for entire video

  • Sound is not synced

  • Tags in video description longer than actual video description

  • There actually is no video description, only a hotlink that attempts to automatically subscribe the viewer when clicked

  • Video has somehow lasted over three years and is still the best known source available

  • Title with capslock

  • Title with "BEST"

  • Title is clickbait

  • Channel name is misspelled

Definitely a Youtube link, folks

It's amazing that we can both sit here, commenting on a gif and a youtube link, where the youtube link is incredibly shit compared to the gif, and you can go and joke with me about how my expectations are too high.

I mean, the gif is right there. It looks way better than the youtube link. I know what old television looks like.

Also, the caption is maliciously placed so it is hard to close without the time bar popping up and blocking the X button.

Most underrated SNL cast member of all time.

[–]xDrSchnugglesx 311 ポイント312 ポイント  (41子コメント)

Underrated? Dude is huge. Has comedy albums, standup, featured in a lot of shows and talk shows. Not underrated at all. He's just excellent.

[–]oit3c 343 ポイント344 ポイント  (25子コメント)

Rolling Stone listed him as 139 out of 145 on the best to worst cast members of snl list, behind several cast members who never actually had a line on the show, and many cast members who had just been hired and yet to appear.

the write up: "Macdonald clearly thought he was hilarious, and that counts for something — confidence is essential for a "Weekend Update" anchor. Unfortunately, he was just a Dennis Miller clone with no mullet and no jokes. Stare into the camera a little longer, Norm; maybe it'll get funnier."

Edit: to clarify, I think Norm is the funniest person, and his book Based on a True Story is amazing, but he def gets as much hate as he gets love.

[–]radarthreat 320 ポイント321 ポイント  (11子コメント)

Rolling Stone doesn't know what the hell it's talking about.

[–]ShureYnaut 107 ポイント108 ポイント  (0子コメント)

They basically take a guess at the most trendy position to take on anything.

It's a popularity contest of opinions within their demographic.

[–]LegoBeatlesInSpace 39 ポイント40 ポイント  (3子コメント)

Including for music reviews. There's a hilarious website that lists all their historic reviews for albums now widely acknowledged to be classics, which Rolling Stone panned at the time (especially good when they compare a classic unfavourably to something no one has heard of now.)

[–]GoodAtExplaining 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Rolling Stone are idiots when it comes to this, to be fair. Norm McDonald isn't underrated, he's been described more as 'a comedian's comedian' for not being afraid to deliver with a deadpan some of the most intense material.

[–]Empyrealist 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Right. Which is why many of us say that Norm is underrated.

[–]Spacelieon 37 ポイント38 ポイント  (2子コメント)

I can't stand Dennis Miller and i love Norm Macdonald. I don't understand how they could consider him a clone, their styles are not comparable.

Yes, but it should be noted that, regarding The Rolling Stones article, it was written by a woman.

[–]dannycake 8 ポイント9 ポイント  (1子コメント)

In case you didn't know norm openly hates the Clintons and a lot of leftist policies. Snl tried to get him off the show many times and media outlets purposefully do their best to minimize and downplay his exposure.

[–]PotatorAid 50 ポイント51 ポイント  (10子コメント)

He was underrated though. I believe he was kicked off the show when he was a cast member and then blew up shortly after. He came back and hosted afterwards and joked about it in his monologue.

[–]BoredomHeights 22 ポイント23 ポイント  (0子コメント)

That whole generation SNL kind of got wrong. In the Live From New York book about behind the scenes of SNL a lot of quotes make it clear Adam Sandler and that whole group weren't really seen as stars and no one thought Adam Sandler specifically would blow up like he did. He, David Spade, Chris Rock, and Rob Schneider were sort of off on their own. Adam was just thought of as the funny song guy. Only Chris Farley was so undeniably talented that he was seen as a star.

But then they leave one by one in the mid nineties and all of them blow up doing movies, then same with Norm.

edit: Even Farley was fired though.

[–]Reverand_Dave 17 ポイント18 ポイント  (8子コメント)

He kept making jokes that the producers didn't like. I think it was because he kept calling Michael Jackson a pedophile or something like that.

[–]radarthreat 41 ポイント42 ポイント  (6子コメント)

It was OJ jokes, as he was one of Dick Ebersol's close friends.

[–]Smaskifa 59 ポイント60 ポイント  (1子コメント)

"This week rumors have been circulating that OJ Simpson was on speed the night of the murders. Yesterday Johnny Cochran announced at a press conference that 'OJ Simpson was not on speed the night of the murders, and any test of his blood at the crime scene will prove this.'"

[–]MamaPleaseKillAMan 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (0子コメント)

At least Norm can have the satisfaction that he did the right thing-- even when it was unpopular. Dick Ebersol is one of the most putrid human beings. Perhaps even (part of) the reason OJ wasn't subjected to a fair and impartial trial.

But within SNL he was vilified and Lorne hated him and his style of comedy. He's been made huge by his devoted fans but studios and tv bosses don't like the guy.

This thing fucking butchers the timing and delivery of the jokes, which is something that Norm fucking kills at. The fact that this exists on the same internet where you can see the actual video is insulting to the art of comedy that Norm has brought us.
