Good call. :thumbsup: I'm really glad he's back on tv. He has a unique way of delivering sometimes common lines, sometimes not common at all. There are things he says that - if anyone else said it - it wouldn't work, but there's a certain way he says them. The funny smile and the delays. The pauses before he finishes the sentence/statement. I remember when I first saw him on SNL, before he became a member of the cast. I think he was a writer. His first onscreen bits on the show were during certain hosts' monologues. He would stand up and uh....ask 'em uh.....questions. I remember laughing hysterically at him. Then he became a regular cast member. To me, he was one of the best Weekend Update correspondents, behind only Kevin Nealon and Chevy Chase. So it's only fitting that he is doing a show with a similar format.

I couldn't make it to a minute.

I'm sorry, I find his delivery less funny than having my nuts smashed between two rocks while someone is piercing my brain.

You really have to watch the whole thing.

Meh... I think he's alright but I usually just feel awkward for him, because 8 times out of 10 not many in the audience laugh.

Plus his joke in that clip was pretty much done by the writers at South Park already

I freakin love Norm! He was funny on SNL and most movies he's in

There was a big portion of a joke that went over the audiences head in tonights episode. For such a good show, the audience sucks.

If you watch his latest Comedy Central special where he's a the Fillmore, the one where the set is the letters N M in grey behind him, my name is actually in the end credits, albeit spelled wrong.

Seemed a bit awkward, but on occasion I like the guys' dry humor.

Just saw him do stand up on the Comedy Channel. Brilliant, original, and LOL funny.
