So funny on Weekend Update and even funnier in stand up. RIP.

61 feels so young to me now.

Loved Norm, one of my favorite comics. Even watched his show when it was on in the 90's.
He had his dog named "Weiner Dog".

Great on SNL (Burt Reynolds on Jeopardy, etc).
Norm invented the term "Fake News"...

Sad. All the non-PC comics are dying off. Soon all there will be is Jimmy Fallon comedy.

Sad news to hear. A nine year cancer battle. Will be hitting up YouTube for some classic clips.

Loved his deadpan delivery. Crazy that he’s dead, I didn’t realize he was sick. Fucking nine years with cancer.

May he rest in peace.

I am genuinely sad about this. I fucking love Norm. Coincidental, I spent about two hours last night watching him on Youtube. I had no idea he was sick and then today I woke up to this bullshit.

RIP Norm. A few thoughts........

First, his book was great and I highly recommend it.

Secondly, he once said that this "was the only true picture ever taken of him"

Lastly, "The Norm Show"(1999) and the movie Dirty Work are both underrated.

maybe i am too much of a cynic, but i always felt a lot of people with cancer like the attention that comes with having cancer

most celebrities with cancer these days constantly post about their cancer on social media, i respect norm macdonald and chadwick boseman a lot for keeping it private

Honestly one of the best comedians to ever live, I was actually really caught off guard with this “celeb” death.

We gotta show Norm some respect and update the thread title to spell his last name correctly. It's Macdonald.

Larry King: "Tell us a secret about you-"
Norm: "I'm actually a deeply closeted gay."
Larry: "Wait, are you telling us you're actually gay?"
Norm: "NO! A deeply closeted gay would NEVER admit he's gay!"

LOL old Larry was so confused

Total respect for not following the NBC president's ban on OJ Simpson jokes during the trial. (They were good friends).

I think it got him fired from SNL. $:-\$
