  • My favorite thing about Norm is that he always looks like he's just waiting for everyone else to realize how ridiculous it is that people keep letting him get away with being him.

    • @@Smorgasbord. the whole thing that makes him a comedy legend is A) his SNL role B) his ability to just ramble and talk absolute nonsense and still make it entertaining and hook you. His ability just to subvert your expectations with some absurd seemingly completely unrelated punchline with a ridiculously over explained setup never feels to make me smirk like an idiot.

Even watching one of the last videos Norm posted on his instagram, it's clear he was sick. Norm was a GOAT and he'll be missed. RIP. I'm glad Conan and his team are uploading these gems.
