I watched the latest episode of Norm MacDonald Live on Amazon

how the fuck would i know

>>85496341
As far as I know Norm is given a stipend and additional funds must be laundered via Adam underneath the Queensborough bridge in multiples of $15

APRIL FOOLS! Former German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt is alive and well!!

>>85496341
I liked this episode. It's an interesting dynamic with each sort of in awe of the other. Not as funny as other ones but entertaining. And Letterman's reaction to "where do you get your ideas from?" was maybe the best so far

The top 10 list was the best part.

>>85496412
haha

>>85497218
>"where do you get your ideas from?"
This was the first episode of the show I watched. Does that guy ask that question to everyone?

>>85497618
Yeah it's one of the running gags.

Enjoy the rest of the episodes!

>>85496341

Didn't fucking Maron actually try to answer that question honestly or is my memory going?

>>85497618
Not everyone, but to a few of them.

He understood it was a joke but answered it anyway cuz that's just the kinda guy he is

Why didn't they do an opening with just Norm and Adam? Those are always hilarious.

When Adam thinks he's become some big shot actor for doing cuck porn, and when norm "pranks" adam by funneling that vodka down his throat as he slept were 10/10.

>>85498250
The gags were good but I can't complain about more time spent with a great guest. For your mental health I suggest taking all podcasts "as is"

>>85498519
he's spent more than in hour with a few guests. gilbert and todd glass come to mind. They easily could have had the opening, and just extend the guest part. hell even if they didn't extend the guest part they could have had an opening, and still had the hour with letterman.

>>85497062
My favorite AF ever 2bh

Like the podcasts with great guests, but always love the episodes with B level comedians where Norm takes the piss out of them

Super Dave episode is so fucking good, he needs to have him every season.

>>85496341
It's on Youtube as well

>>85496341
Dave looks great, retirement is doing him well

>>85498250
What episode is the cuck one?

I'm guessing he filmed it all and was shopping it around to various people like Amazon and Netflix. Which is why it took so long for it to come out, they filmed these like 10 months ago. Amazon probably paid him a lump sum for his catalog. But then again it is on Youtube as well so I don't see how that would benefit Amazon. Who knows.

>>85499388
Bob Saget.

>>85499469
are these meta jokes I wonder? is Bob Saget a cuck??

>>85499566
it's not about bob saget, it's about ripping the hell out of adam.also bob saget was never funny. idk how he ever got famous.

Jews are notoriously nepotistic and have considerable tribal bias/in-group occupational preferences.

According to Adam Eget.

>>85497999
Why would that be bad? Is it strange to ask comedians who write jokes where they get their ideas from?

>>85500298
It's a fucking cliche question because it's only asked by hack interviewers who don't know what the fuck they're doing.

>>85500196
well shit, if Adam Eget said it I have to believe it. He's done some pretty extensive research on those gas stacks.It just doesn't add up. he knows his shit

>>85500473
was It actually cut? I thought nick swardson was surprisingly one of the best episodes, but I can't recall if that was included. Why wouldn't it be? he's used that same joke on at least one other guest. At least the talking about walking through the bones and shit in manhatten part. Maybe not the airline joke part, but i can't recall

>>85500731
It wasn't cut from the episode, that video itself was cut from that episode, poor choice of words.

>>85502198
It was cut from the episode though

They don't have a great interface, but then again, no streaming service does.

new episode was great except for the horrible tight shots and the editing. genuinely made me so nauseous i listened to most of it because i couldn't watch it.

>>85502903
JASH rejects. They're used to directing Eric Andre and other numale "comedy"

>>85496341
I actually like the commercials in Norm Macdonald Live because it's Norm doing them, and in this episode they were more interesting than the interview.

>>85502577
I thought I'd a kill a summer month with some free High Castle but then... Hand of God, and Bosch???... /tv/ is light on the shitposting when it comes to their comfy programming.

>>85499566
Norm hates meta-comedy... I would love for him to invite Tim Heidecker or Bo Burnham so he could push their shit without them even realizing it.
>>85499719
Saget got on Full House because somebody thought it would be funny to give him the job after hearing his comedy which is all jokes about murdering and raping children and shit.

>>85502956
his commerical with andy dick and that fucking grill thing was hilarious. Andy dick was another guy I thought would be just horrible, but ended up being one of the best episodes.

>>85503002
I hate Bo Burnham so much. I'd love to see Norm roast him.

>>85503002
>Saget got on Full House because somebody thought it would be funny to give him the job after hearing his comedy which is all jokes about murdering and raping children and shit.


I don't disagree with you, but seriously how many people do you think would actually get the joke that he's playing a character totally antithetical to his on stage persona? On top of that, even the people that got the "joke", I would bet well over 95% of his fans didn't watch the show because his show character was so different and the show was awful.

>>85502959
The first season of Red Oaks is super comfy. I haven't got around to watching the second season yet.

>>85496341
>tfw it's produced by Jash, which is majority owned by Tim and Eric
>tfw Tim Heidecker makes money every time you watch Norm's show

>>85497218
I thought letterman had seen them do it before by his reaction.

>>85496412
Love it

>>85496341
When can we expect the next episode?

>>85504710
Hopefully subtitles if its Iron Mike

>>85504732
I fully expect that episode to be god awful, but norm live never fails to surprise me. You never know who's gonna be a good guest. like half of the ones i thought would be awful, turned out to be great, and half the ones i thought would be great turned out to be awful.

maybe it all depends on norms mood at the time

>>85503046
The grill commercials were hilarious, as were the shaving club ones, but then the grill ones withdrew their money because they felt he was mocking them instead of advertising them (what did they expect, it's Norm) and I think since then he hasn't been as daring.

>>85509045
He should have Bill Burr do the commercials sometime.

Lose the douchebag

>>85506525
that was actually a great episode because it was fun seeing koechner so agitated and uncomfortable.

>>85497218
when david started praising norm you could see norm was uncomfortable and didn't think he deserved it

>>85502959
i liked fortitude. pretty neat concept. although it kinda didnt turn out how i thought it was going it still went somewhere neat.

>>85500473
It's amazing how norm can turn a trash joke into pure gold with just a few tangentially related comments.

will sarah silverman let him finger her on jash?

Anyone else notice how like 90% of his guests are Jews, including his co-host?

>>85514506

amerifats thinking merchant was upset or unfunny is complete and utter admittance of being a proletariat

disgusting amerifats

>>85509247
haha that'd be epic for the win

The Letterman episode was really poor. It contained nothing you wouldn't already know if you'd seen Letterman interviewed before, and Norm offered very little insight, probably conscious of the fact that Letterman is easy to upset.
Hopefully Norm isn't so starstruck in later episodes.

he's bulking for a role

>>85496341
I said this before, but I am worried about how commercialized it seems. There were like 15 minutes of commercials and it was heavily edited to fit the 60 minute time slot. I feel like norm won't do any more cock cutting or holocaust jokes.

>>85520183
He still has leftover KFC

>>85519118
>>85520110
At least Sarah, Seinfeld, Dana and Jenner are confirmed by pics/vids/mentions.

>>85499004
The best episodes are when Norm doesn't respect the guest

>>85520257

I think it was more just Norm having his idol on, it wasn't just that Norm was being clean, he barely spoke.

Look at how little he involved Adam, he normally uses him as the butt of his most offensive jokes but he spoke maybe twice. It seemed more like Norm just wanted to let Letterman shine.

According to ain'titcool:

>David Letterman, Judd Apatow, Sarah Silverman, Conan O’Brien, Jerry Seinfeld, Margaret Cho, Robert Blake, Patrick Dempsey, Mike Tyson, Caitlin Jenner (!) and “Mad TV” vets Bobby Lee and Artie Lange.

So the fact that he comes off as a nerd with confidence you dont like his work? or do you actually not like his shows?

>>85521520
I think he is a pseudo intellectual, he is a fan of a certain Dutch comedian that is basically a sjw pussi stereotype here in the Nederlands

If you watch his shows he openly admits hes not smarter or better than anyone else and thinks its ridiculous the amount of fame he has hes humble AF his pretentious stage act is just that an act. I know different strokes for different folks but man it seems like you havent watched any of his work.

>>85521831

Norm was probably nervous about bring in his non sequitars.

He didnt want to dominate over him out of respect.

>>85521657
A new brand of alt comedy dummy. This isnt music you dont have to give it labels. And you cant say they arent influential.

>>85521917
Agreed. I have a feeling the Mike Tyson episode is going to be off the rails crazy.

>>85521888
He is smarmy and false modesty fools old ladies and faggots. I've heard him in interviews and he seems like a anodyne goody goody faggot, I was like that at his age it isn't genuine.

He says the have Jim Carrey and Tom Hanks lined up. Also maybe OJ:

>I think he will. I know his lawyer, so his lawyer like guaranteed me that he’d be on. And then O.J. went against it. But yeah, maybe now that I’m making such an impassioned defense of him, saying I’ve changed my mind, yeah.

It's easy to fuck around when the stakes are low and you don't give a shit but I really doubt Norm is the kind of guy to waste an interview with Tom Hanks rambling about whatever he wants. They're crossing the divide between small scale and professional when priorities start to emerge and you can't joke about eating out Hitler's asshole for an hour straight (depending on the guest of course).

true, i expected the merchant episode to be like that but it turned out to be the exact opposite, i dont think ive seen norm crazier

I think he plays it by ear, if Merchant didn't have sand in his vagina then Norm probably would've toned down his material

>>85525533
I feel like your lines are crossed but personally there was nothing wrong with the Merchant episode at all, Norm had some bizarre questions asked completely seriously and Merchant not only answered appropriately but never faltered or stumbled over himself. Norm ended with his longest joke yet and it went over without a hitch.

>>85497062
APRALL FALLS!!!

>>85527641
im saying norm was at his craziest in that episode, just kept comboing random bizzarely funny things at times
compare that to the letterman episode where he only attempted to say anything funny like 5 times in that whole hour

>>85527641
Merchant came across as super sensitive, watch it again there's real tension between them

>>85520381
Yeah, thats why my favorite is still the one with the dude from TBBT, Norm is fucking unhinged on that one.

>>85527785
Fair enough, I don't like when people dismiss episodes because of some projected failure on the guest, and Merchant gets a lot of flak in that regard.

>>85527934
Case in point, there's absolutely no tension between them and I don't understand why you would feel that way. Merchant's jokes about apologizing to people and distancing from controversial topics are actually made to relieve tension and add levity, not the other way around you fool.

>>85528038
Fuck Merchant. He actually told Norm why he doesn't invite black comedians to the show. Smug cunt

>>85521078
Its actually legit, and its either going to be the most boring or the most funny. But it will probably make the news since Jenner is a conservative tranny and Norm is a dont give a fuck comedian likely to ask some real shit and get real shit in response.

>>85527641
Merchant was unironically apologizing for offending people every 2-3 minutes.

>>85528127
I feel like it will be pretty dull, with Norm falling on the 'confused old man' routine to avoid any pitfalls.

>>85528100
>>85528175
They were just jokes. Don't be like those people who worship the idea of Norm not giving a fuck about anything, but take the guests at face value to the point of seeing tension where there is none.

If you want tension so badly, wait for the rumored Artie Lange episode.

>>85528184
Jenner episode will be fine

>The one question I had [for Jenner] is, what’s a woman? She couldn’t answer it. That’s what I find most confusing about it. It’s a woman trapped inside a man’s body. Then, what’s a woman? And he had no answer. Or she, rather. You get in trouble for pronouns. She had no answer for what a woman was because women like to pretend that women and men are the exact same. But then if they are, they can’t say they are women trapped inside man’s bodies. But he’s very, or she I should say—it’s a she if you look her in the face and it’s a he when you’re shaking her giant hand. There’s nothing you can do with your hands, I realized talking to her. They haven’t come up with that yet. But she was very charming, and she’s going to golf with me. She’s a scratch golfer, for God’s sakes. She hits the par fives in two. And I said, “You go on the ladies tees now?” And she said, “Oh yeah.” And I thought that’s a bit unfair.

>>85528175
thats the bit.

>>85528184
>to avoid any pitfalls
Not really his style. And even if he goes in with that agenda, the dude has a 30 year history of being a contrarian for comedic purposes, he'll fuck up and ask something that everyone wonders and nobody has the guts to publicly ask, and Jenner will give an honest (to him/her) reply which with his/her conservative leanings will be deemed "problematic". Its my prediction, i might be wrong.

>>85528435
I don't know at this point, Norm makes it sound pleasant enough but there's a chance it went down way less smoothly than that. I just hope they don't walk on eggshells in any way, we don't need a 'very special episode' for this.

>>85528435
>it’s a she if you look her in the face and it’s a he when you’re shaking her giant hand. There’s nothing you can do with your hands,

>>85528537
It should be interesting no doubt. In both cases the worst outcome is just a dull interview, so I hope you're right and Norm breaks the ice nice and early.

>>85528402
And she didnt fly into the Bermuda Triangle which was the premise of the joke, you fucking retard. I remember the cliff notes of the joke, lettermans reaction to it and Norm responding with "it was 150 years ago". It was an added punchline to the already faulty premise of the joke, which then became the joke. Go back to /r/LouisCK.

>>85528707
It was obviously some sort of slavery/civil war joke, which was 150 years ago. They cut it because Letterman.

That was some classic post-sasso comedy

The issue with the Letterman episode is that Norm respected him to much, there was a similar problem with the Jack Carter episode but Carter was bonkers enough to make it work. Letterman was very very dry.

The others on the list look great though. I have faith even though Norm's most recent special was just terrible.

the jew from bazinga says he appeared on madtv but this was after sasso had left and norm turns to adam egret and says "post sasso"

Second season is also great. I'm glad to see someone who watches Red Oaks on /tv/

I'm explaining to you what the actual joke was that seemingly was edited out, so yes. I get the gist of editing. Anything else?

>>85529644
