One of the better Weekend Update anchors, IMO.   Dirty Work is also one of those under the radar comedy classics.

Norm McDonald when Conan was on his way out as Tonight Show host one of my favorite Norm moments.

Bah this one really hurts. Huge fan of Norm, I've been going through all of his Youtube content this year.

2 weeks ago, my friends and I were sitting by the fire on Frye Island and people were starting to fade so I asked if anyone had heard of the great French Canadian intellectual Jacques Desgotineau? No one had heard of Jacques, so I proceeded to rattle off this off this story as best I could from memory.

RIP Norm. Thanks for the laughs.

I liked his particular form of humor.  It didn't always land, but when it did he was hilarious.

A bit raunchy but this monologue from the ESPYs is him throwing 100 mph heat.  Real good.

My humor must have changed with age.  I remember liking Norm when I was in college, but this was an 8-minute cringefest for me.

A lot of his stuff was 90s humor.  It’s definitely not even close to PC today.

Man that's rough.

I adore this guy. I go back to youtube to watch him at least a few times per year. And it always ends up being a weeklong binge session.

I'll legit miss this here feller.

My wife and I enjoyed his appearances as Mike Heck's brother on The Middle, and also his turn as Funbucket on Adam Sandler movie Jack and Jill.
