I read Norm's hero Tolstoy religiously way before I got into Norm, and he really does have this sort of deliberately simplistic world view combined with respectful humility that is promoted in T's works, so he's a pretty good role model, I suppose.

Yeah I did the opposite and read a bunch of Tolstoy after I got into Norm and there's definitely a profound influence there, especially in the alleged simplicity of how he lives his life. The anti-science stuff (that's half ironic, half true I am sure) comes from Tolstoy, too I'd wager.

i think i like the idea of Norm MacDonald more than anything he's actually said or done

i love broken jokes and i love his style of delivery. i could just listen to this man talk forever really.

i just don't think much of the things he's actually been in, unfortunately

I'd say he's more like Redd Foxx, in that he's really funny without having a lot of specific bits or jokes. Don Rickles was way angrier than Norm.

From 1999+ SNL has had the formula that loud equals funny. I'm glad Norm got fired because you know he would have stuck around and been seen with those hacks for a paycheck.

Uh, you guys know Norm is now the new Colonel Sanders, right?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grqjClY1110

I'm willing to bet good money he wrote one of the commercials himself.. "They can't just grab a super-funny Hollywood actor.. throw a white suit on him.. and try to pass him off.. as the real Colonel Sanders.." drat his faux southern drawl sounds just about perfect.

Holy poo poo, what timing. I finally sat down and watched 3 episode of Sports Show on Youtube and I never laughed so hard in my life. This was just yesterday! It's like they knew.

When is this coming out? Is it on TV or internet only? Please be identical to Sports Show is all I ask.

i don't know when it will air, but it most certainly won't be "live". season 1 was live, 2 was not. bobby lee posted on his instagram that he filmed his episode yesterday. someone else posted a photo of stephen merchant during the filming of an episode. if you go to norm's reddit (ew) page, you can find a partial list of guests appearing in season 3.
