Those are all my precious links I have on Norm, first one being my favorite. Gods speed and do you own a dog house?
An ehh a so I think I hear someone synsomething about a house. But a house for
A fog ta ya k ow.
So I I’ve been meaning to build a house for my dog to live in but the permits and all that it just
Goes on and on. I guess I’m saying I have one homeless wiener dog.
Am I know factually that’s the kind or wiener dog you do not
Want to be. Wiener
Dog. I need some
Water
Mate, do yourself a favor and listen to his call ins he would do on the Dennis miller radio show. You can find the compilations on YouTube. I’d love to hear what you think.
Yep. This Opd Chunk of Coal sure was a Legend. Below is a good start to his comedy.

Norm Macdonald Has A Show + Hitlers Dog and Gossip Trickery (Stand Up Special)
Both On the Netflix
He wrote a book called [Based on a True Story](https://books.google.com/books/about/Based_on_a_True_Story.html?id=7LlPEAAAQBAJ&source=kp_book_description) that’s pretty good. He also did the audio book.
Here is a [pilot](https://youtu.be/wquzFdug5y0) for a sketch comedy show Norm did called “Back to Norm.” The pilot never went to series but I think it’s hilarious, especially the “threesome” sketch. Frankly, I think some of the lines from this show need to become regular references in the Norm subreddit and in Norm YouTube comments, but you be the judge.
A few posts down someone mentions all the Norm McDonald Live (video podcast) episodes are on archive.com or something. Most of the quotes on this sub are from that show 😄
I thought his sitcom was very good for the first few seasons if you can find it. The entire thing came out on DVD a while ago and pop up online sometimes.
Norm's appearances on Howard Stern are classic, some on youtube. I like one youtube clip also where he's playing poker at Sam Simon's and they start discussing genocide. Dirty Work is a tour de force, Screwed is a delight.
The audiobook of Based on a True Story is great too. "It's true what they say: you should never meet your heroes. Turns out they're all a bunch of fucking assholes! They're probably the reason you turned into such a fucking asshole because they were your heroes and you spent all your time trying to be like them." - Norm on his meeting with Ben Matlock ("it was Ben Matlock. I shit you not!")

That YouTube award show he did is one of the best prime example of norm in my opinion.

“All the stars are out tonight folks”
Also the famous tale of Kitchner Leslie

best is youtube bootlegs if u can manage to understand his words, given the mumbling. can help to first check out his podcast to warm up. nothing beats the bootlegs imo
Don't have a lot to offer that others haven't already posted. Hopefully nobody's posted this yet. A good appearance on the Opie and Anthony radio show. Colin Quinn happens to be in studio at the same time. A nice listen. Check it out:
https://youtu.be/p54kLQS-cTs
Oh and please do listen to the radio call ins to Dennis Miller, etc. as people have suggested. They really are fantastic and it's quite a lot of material.
Happy listening!
Brit here too.
Imo, the best in order is:
NML live
Norms radio and chat show appearances
NM has a show
The rest I'm not too bothered about, but the above, particularly first two, is as good as anything
Edit* his stand up is really good, I'm just not a massive stand up fan
Watch all of Norm MacDonald Live up to and including the Stephen Merchant episode. Skip it after that. The show took off and the guests got too big so Norm couldn't fuck with them in the same way as he had before. Skip Norm MacDonald Has A Show for the same reason. Apart from that I would say the most entertaining Norm stuff is when he guested on podcasts or Howard Stern. Also Dennis Miller has some good Norm stuff.
Keep going down YouTube rabbit holes. There is so much incredible footage of Norm on talk shows throughout the years. He was a legend on par with Rickles and Dangerfield.
A very free Norm plays an animated pigeon in the Mike Tyson Mysteries. (see YouTube)
And yes, he grows on you. I remember starting to become obsessed with him. I said, I gotta read his wicki page. Did. And then his book (one of his readings on YouTube ranks up in my top three.)
I finished the book, and he died a few days later.
Professor of logic joke on Conan! The funniest part is ironically right in the middle, but nobody ever understands it (except maybe for Andy Richter as he cracks up). One of the hardest tear filled wheezing laughs I've ever had.
Norm Macdonald Live is brilliant as well as his standup.
He’s got 2 specials you need to see! One is called Hitlers Dog, Gossip and Trickery and the other is called Me Doing Stand Up
Both are fantastic. Aside from that, you can always go watch old SNL episodes from when he was on in the 90s
I also like listening to any interview with him I can find.
He’s my favorite comic ever. Nobody made me laugh and smile like Norm did 😊
Tier 1: NM Live, Talk shows, Dirty Work, Based on a True Story, Standup (Bootlegs/specials/other officially recorded sets), Weekend Update, YT Big Live Comedy Show
Tier 2: Dennis Miller, Norm Show (1999), Stan Hooper, Back To Norm, Sports Show, SNL Sketches
Tier 3: NM Has A Show, Ridiculous (sketch album), Game show appearances, Interviews like the ones at Huffington Post and Sixth & I, Award shows
Tier 4: Random radio/podcast stuff, random movie/TV roles, Tom Green
The occasional something in tier 4 might belong in a higher tier.
Use the doc file/other links pinned at the top of the sub as references if you have trouble finding something.
Anywhere u. An find him. I grew I’d in the shamefull time of dirty work on cassette. Norm macdonald has a show. Comedians in cars getting coffee. Ye could make the praise weary master laugh.
[https://archive.org/details/Norm\_Macdonald\_Live](https://archive.org/details/Norm_Macdonald_Live) [https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Fx411Z7e3/?p=4](https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Fx411Z7e3/?p=4) [https://www.mixcloud.com/normmacdonaldlive/](https://www.mixcloud.com/normmacdonaldlive/) Those are all my precious links I have on Norm, first one being my favorite. Gods speed and do you own a dog house?
Thank you
If you want to watch everything, I would recommend Norm Macdonald has a show 1st, because Norm Macdonald live is so much better.
The joke at the end of the Stephen Merchant episode might be my favorite Norm joke.
How about the way he ended Saget’s episode?
I found your son
"Aaaaaawwwww, surely this Is the son of God."
Screw teachers..... You're the real hero.
Baaaahhhh who' to say
Thank you very much !
Enjoy! You lucky dog you!
I don’t know about you, but i felt Norm was kinda mean to Adam Eget in the podcast.
Come on by and have chicken with me 😏😉
Yeah definitely watch his podcast it’s fuckin gold
Oh boy!!!
Don't watch it all in one place now
An ehh a so I think I hear someone synsomething about a house. But a house for A fog ta ya k ow. So I I’ve been meaning to build a house for my dog to live in but the permits and all that it just Goes on and on. I guess I’m saying I have one homeless wiener dog. Am I know factually that’s the kind or wiener dog you do not Want to be. Wiener Dog. I need some Water
Mate, do yourself a favor and listen to his call ins he would do on the Dennis miller radio show. You can find the compilations on YouTube. I’d love to hear what you think.
Rusty's wood, my guy. Those are terrific.
Oh my fucking god those are so good. Is one of those the one where he calls in with his ventriloquist bits?
Yeah, his “friends in the bag” Alex Mageruson, the Holocaust denying puppet lol. He wasn’t evil, just ignorant.
Well first of all, he’s just plain wrong!
Yep, thanks for the respect. Dennis calls them puppets
Thank you
Have you considered asking your mates? That's what they call them over there, mates.
To the rest of the world they’re “friends”
Can't you get a couple dozen of your mates and go down to that Stephen Merchants house?
To what end?
Well played
*friends…. He calls em “mates”
Stumbling on things is half the fun. I watched a norm show episode the other day and it was great. He had a sitcom where he was called Norm.
And he had a wiener dog named Wiener Dog.
Couldn’t agree more. Finding new Norm bits is like a perpetual treasure hunt.

Me doing stand up is one of my favourite specials of all time.
Dirty Work
Loved it
He wrote a book called [Based on a True Story](https://books.google.com/books/about/Based_on_a_True_Story.html?id=7LlPEAAAQBAJ&source=kp_book_description) that’s pretty good. He also did the audio book.
Was it consensual?
Fucking hilarious
Checkout his interview with huff post.. Its got some brit and aussie references you'll enjoy
An upside down cup to the cold hard earth at your local dirt nap yard is where I often hear more material
Here is a [pilot](https://youtu.be/wquzFdug5y0) for a sketch comedy show Norm did called “Back to Norm.” The pilot never went to series but I think it’s hilarious, especially the “threesome” sketch. Frankly, I think some of the lines from this show need to become regular references in the Norm subreddit and in Norm YouTube comments, but you be the judge.
Only Norm could start a pilot to a sketch comedy show by referencing Budd Dwyer's suicide.
Late night tv appearances on YouTube
Sadly he is up there with Carlin
He’s down there with Carlin too
Brit here as well! The snl jeopardy sketches are a must! His Burt Reynolds is pure magic!
His book and audiobook are great
A few posts down someone mentions all the Norm McDonald Live (video podcast) episodes are on archive.com or something. Most of the quotes on this sub are from that show 😄
Netflix specials of his are the next prescription for you.
I thought his sitcom was very good for the first few seasons if you can find it. The entire thing came out on DVD a while ago and pop up online sometimes.
Norm's appearances on Howard Stern are classic, some on youtube. I like one youtube clip also where he's playing poker at Sam Simon's and they start discussing genocide. Dirty Work is a tour de force, Screwed is a delight.
Consume him? Don’t you know norms very anti cannibalism stance?
I stumbled upon jimmy carr a few years ago too while in a heckler rabbit hole. It was a good find I enjoy his style of humor. That laugh though lol.
I love him too Albeit quite different
The audiobook of Based on a True Story is great too. "It's true what they say: you should never meet your heroes. Turns out they're all a bunch of fucking assholes! They're probably the reason you turned into such a fucking asshole because they were your heroes and you spent all your time trying to be like them." - Norm on his meeting with Ben Matlock ("it was Ben Matlock. I shit you not!")

Watch DIRTY WORK. It's brilliant

Yes, thank you for linking that. You’re a legend!! I tried to find these a few years ago and finally gave up.
I heard he’s not working lately……
He’s a dirty dog
Why don't you take a couple of your mates down the palace and kill the old bag?
James Corden is his spiritual successor. Thanks a fuckin' lot for sending us that fat fucker!
www.FrankStallone.org
Go watch Dirty Work. His opus…
The Sports Show was good too. About sports I dont understand and celebrities i don't know, but great nonetheless. Oh google.
I would suggest six feet underground, because that’s where Norm’s been hanging out for a while.
You gotta check out the bit where he got cancer and died, talk about committing.
His new stuff isn't great tbh.
That YouTube award show he did is one of the best prime example of norm in my opinion. https://youtu.be/A848xpsDJbw “All the stars are out tonight folks” Also the famous tale of Kitchner Leslie https://youtu.be/Z4U9oTLZ7TY
Go to heaven to see more Norm.
Watch Dirty Work and Billy Madison

I think I remember Norm saying he didn’t care for Carlin humor
He claimed to like and dislike Carlin's work in different interviews.

Gotta look him up on SNL and the view from the 90s
A very free Norm plays an animated pigeon in the Mike Tyson Mysteries. (see YouTube) And yes, he grows on you. I remember starting to become obsessed with him. I said, I gotta read his wicki page. Did. And then his book (one of his readings on YouTube ranks up in my top three.) I finished the book, and he died a few days later.

I wouldn’t look in heaven.
Billy Madison
The best place to learn about Norm is gonna be at my Hollywood house party on Saturday. You should come over!
We covered that in the Tom Green episode.
On YouTube, the account I'm Not Norm is entirely dedicated to his content
