I used to agree with all three of those comedians until I had a problem with my MP3 player once and it didn't play Robin Williams voice correctly. All of a sudden his jokes aren't funny anymore. he seemed to accentuate a lot of things that made you concentrate on certain points that would lead to ironic presentations at random intervals. if you take out the fluctuation in his voice he's not funny. that ruined him for me. sort of the same way if you take iconic music out of certain movies like Guardians of the Galaxy it becomes a horrific piece of trash.
I have a hard time admitting it to myself due to all the giants of comedy over the years but Norm is my favorite. I never laugh as much with anybody else so, he must be.
I wouldn't be so quick to shit on Carlin though. Way different style wise but the dude was a prolific mofo. If you go back and listen to all his specials in the nineties and even somewhat into the 2000s when he's already in his fifites and 60's, he is masterful.
He does indeed. On the Tom Green show:"And then I go to sleep... on my pillow." So many times with him I can not explain why it is funny. It's the delivery. That's all I got.
Whether Norm is considered by his peers to be one of the best comedians of his era or not, one thing no one can deny: he's an inimitable one!! RIP Norm.

Whenever I watch Norm, I always get the feeling that some don't want to laugh, but they just can't stop themselves. That's what you call a master at his craft.
Like when he was on Jon Stewarts show just after Steve Irvin was killed and Stewart is BEGGING him, "Please don't make me laugh at this" but all the while knowing that he was going to anyways
Norm gets Canadian self-deprecating humor. Anything that should be an insecurity and might hit a nerve is just eviscerated. I always thought Norm's humor worked well in the States but it works the same everywhere. Also God bless Catherine O'Hara. When Norm makes a joke not many know how to take, she takes it as a joke and shows it.
Tribute to one of the greatest comedians of our generation. In his own words, his battle with cancer was a draw. “I’m not a doctor, but I’m pretty sure that if you die, then the cancer also dies at the same time. “That to me is not a loss. That’s a draw.” RIP Norm...
This was one of the best and funniest award hostings I have ever seen, it was genius gold! Thank you Norm, you are already missed! Bon boyage... Blessings from a Colombian fan! 🇨🇴🙏🏽
Saw this before, even funnier now if bittersweet. If the Oscars were ever this good, with a host like Norm? I’d actually watch! There never will be another host or comic like Norm of course. I absolutely loved him. I hope I meet you in the next life, Macdonald. God bless you and your brilliance.
Sadly the Left politized the Oscar's to where they're unwatchable. It's always jokes about a Republican president and while fawning over a Democrat president, or predictably virtue signalling support of the liberal cause of the moment. So shallow and so predictable.
I was shocked when I heard that Norm had died. Keeping his illness a secret was pure Norm. I started thinking back on all of the laughs that he'd brought me over the years, and the one with the teacher in the audience was absolutely genius.
My goodness, Norm was brilliant! I discovered Canada’s culture in the late 70s/early 80s when I discovered Rush, then SCTV. My brother and I drove there and spent a week in Toronto, Ottawa, and a couple hours in Montreal, which I was too hungover from the night before in Ottawa to be able to deal with, so we went back to Ottawa, then Toronto. I’ve had a love and appreciation for Canada ever since. Great talent there!
So glad that there are still some clips of Norm out there, that I haven't seen yet. The really great thing is; everything he's done is infinitely rewatchable. Thank you.
Norm has a knack. A very witty and smart comic. He could tell you a joke about anything, for instance, he could go on and on about a bag full of rocks and sand and come up with something to make ya smile/laugh.

he does he hosts the awards shows that honor hosts of award shows who have previously hosted award shows specifically for hosts of past awards shows. kinda a big deal surprised you missed it there giovanni galvis...
I remember when this happened. The jokes are way more conventional than the typical Norm stuff. But he was great at it. His Cape Breton joke was savage.
I love when Norm can't help but laugh 7:50 love that brief moment joke - wonder if the ones he laughs at are the ones he finds most funny... I hope so. Maybe just random moments where he lets it out though
Norm was so excited he seemed to get emotional. That is something special about him. He knew he was about to kill and it showed in his eyes before he even uttered the words on the teleprompter.

I didn't get it either
@@faradaysage15 it is highlighting the absurdity of his relationship with the younger generation. Basically saying that kids are pieces of shit.
The foreign movie joke... you have to be a genius to even think of that
Came here to hear that joke again, ended up watching the whole video. Norm is brilliant
The final stand up comedian on Letterman's finale! What does that tell you..
Respect is all... and he killed it .. love you Norm
That daylight savings joke....HOLY SHIT NORM!!! what a gem.
I didn’t get it at first ha
Had me wondering, in 2019, because we changed the time last night as well, so I had to double check this was an older video or live broadcast in 2019.
@@championdesigns I feel like an idiot. I didn't get it lol. Can you explain.
@@throughmyeyesonly It's about the coincidence between Daylight Time each year only lasting 6 months a year and his (joking) ignorance about a new gimmick people will eventually hate and get rid of in the same amount of time.
".... and a couple regional municipalities. WE are here...." I love when he does those transitions. It's like he transitions from joke-to-joke with another joke.
Show runs too short
Norm: "i've been told to stretch, Eeeeh...Aaaah.....Goodnight everyone shows over"
Don't give af
Oh thats what they meant by stretch?! lol that's hilarious
Lmao!! Went right over my head!
I was wondering if anyone caught that lol, Norm is a corporate producer's nightmare.
My response thought was, "Aw...he IS getting up there, but they care. I should stretch more too..."
Norm is so good.
How good is he?
@@Doctor-Stoppage the greatest. Get it?
Norm is perfection on stage. Hilarious as always and brings plenty of class to this occasion.
Norm should host more shows like these and in the U.S.
he does he hosts the awards shows that honor hosts of award shows who have previously hosted award shows specifically for hosts of past awards shows. kinda a big deal surprised you missed it there giovanni galvis...
Zabs McGee you are so amazing I don't know even know what to say in this comment, but thank you so much for the comment. Thanks again.
Liberals would never allow it.
The gay mafia would never allow it
Norm's the gift that keeps on giving.
Doesn't have to be in Canada to be adored.
“I lost a dollar.” Fantastic.
Norm MACDonald is a universal treasure...
David Letterman pronunciation
Brilliant. Was sad when it ended :(
everything comes to an end
Except for this conversation. I predict we'll still be chatting 30 years from n.... THUD
There is a saying in Germany... 'Everything has an end, only the sausage has 2'.
Fantastic ... somehow, I hang on his every word... and find myself smiling all through his stuff.
September 2021…rewatching everything norm…but for the worst reason.
I remember when this happened. The jokes are way more conventional than the typical Norm stuff. But he was great at it. His Cape Breton joke was savage.
I love when Norm can't help but laugh 7:50 love that brief moment joke - wonder if the ones he laughs at are the ones he finds most funny... I hope so. Maybe just random moments where he lets it out though
Norm is the king! Sweden love you!
Hear hear!
Yes
Sure why not, I'll randomly add Norway too then!
Also a Swede and Norm’s my favorite. He should do a stand up tour in Scandinavia.
you guys are too cold for a warm welcome.
Norm was so excited he seemed to get emotional. That is something special about him. He knew he was about to kill and it showed in his eyes before he even uttered the words on the teleprompter.
Norm Macdonald needs to host every single awards show!
Greatest host, greatest guest and greatest comedian ever! Thanks Canada!
We didn’t know what we had until we lost it, Rest In Peace Norm
Oh... I knew. Norm has been cracking me up forever.
Norm: “And who doesn’t love John Candy?”
Millennials look around to see John taking a bow.
Bruh we know about John Candy LMAOOOO
Norm is one of the funniest comics alive. He has me in tears nearly every time I see his bits....a true comedic genius.
