Very sad news, indeed.

 

Rest in peace, Mr. MacDonald.

 

Thank you for making so many people smile and laugh.

Seriously? That's so sad. They have comedy channels on Sirius radio and his bits that they play are hilarious.

 

And he was always the best on the SNL parodies of Jeopardy! There's one where he is playing Burt Reynolds wearing a huge floppy cowboy hat as a Jeopardy contestant and he is hysterical. I will miss him. RIP, Norm. :rose:

What a struggle; I am reading that he battled cancer for nine plus years. RIP.

[Principled Man]

He was one of the funniest comedians ever. He was to me.

[bluefox4000]

RIP Norm.

Norm MacDonald on battles with cancer: “I’m pretty sure, I’m not a doctor, but I’m pretty sure if you die, the cancer dies at the same time. That’s not a loss. That’s a draw.”

Damn it. An all time great, taken way too soon.

 

A favourite among many, many favourites of his stuff is when he did a set at the roast of Bob Saget. Knowing those things are famously dirty and offensive, MacDonald's set is made up of the most inoffensive dad jokes possible. His commitment to that bit is so goddamn funny.

RIP Norm. You left a very funny legacy. Thank you.

What a loss. What a unique and hilarious comedian. Poop.

Genius.

[blueschica]

Celebrating his work! "Nah, it's correct!"

 

[KenJennings]

I've had a link to this video in my signature for many years. It is my favorite joke of all time, and probably always will be.

This probably explains why I liked him on Weekend Update so much.

 

What a bummer.

[Derek19]

The news is true. I'm sorry, to hear, see, and read this. I think some of the comedian work including his own he did was funny. He will be missed, and remembered. My condolences, and sympathies, to his family, and friends. R.I.P., Norm.

Shit. He was hilarious. Maybe the Olympics will institute the Summer Olympic biathlon in his honor. Run the 100 meter dash and then fish.

 

 

RIP, Norm!

Very sad. As others said he was a great comedian. He was one of the top guys on SNL at a time when I watched the show regularly. Check out his last Netflix special he did a few years ago. Great stuff! Was really looking forward to a new one from him now that people are allowed to go to things again. Damn.

 

RIP
