That's all I got, folks. No need to agree or even bother responding. Arguing his comedic genius is like arguing the gravitational constant.

Mike | "Its a big funny hat. It's a big hat. It's funny."
His performance was great. Or rather, his lack thereof. Some of my favorite parts of the show were the reaction shots while the other comedians ripped on him. Priceless.
And though not Norm's line, IMO one of the best of Chris Farley's lines came from Dirty Work: "There's the Saigon whore who bit my nose off!"

I forgot the " My ass is fire. My ass is fire. Oh, My ass is no more, it has been replaced by fire!"

I haven't seen it, but I was told he literally read out of an old joke book.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Brooklyn, NY | | | My favorite Norm moment is an odd one: he was doing the weekly news gig on SNL and at one point, mid-punch line, he mispronounced "Carribean," and after a few chuckles made an off the cuff comment about how there are two two different ways to correctly pronounce that word, and he failed at both. The first time I saw that I busted a gut laughing!
There are so many good lines from his Burt Reynolds impression on Celebrity Jeopardy alone! |

He was going out of his way to be vanilla and unfunny. It was just skincrawly... and very brave. Saget and the others were cracking up. I happened to tune in right when he was doing his bit, and I just went ???.... then I figured it out. |
