If you missed it last night, the "Back to Norm" pilot airs again tonight on Comedy Central at 8PM. I thought it was pretty funny, formatted similar to Chappelle's show. They should let him do a full series now that Chappelle has flaked out.
 
I saw some of it and it was ok. I like Norm's dry delivery just fine but compared to Chappelle it's like Pat Boone versus Little Richard.

Norm was great in certain skits on SNL, but his 'style' doesn't seem to carry over very well to much else. I don't think I've liked him in anything else I've seen, including that absolutely shitty sitcom he was(is?) in. He was fucking great on SNL, though......I'll always love him skits like Bible Challenge and that Cobras vs Panthers bit. :lol
 
Big fan of Norm. I found this show okay. Certainly would've been more enjoyable if I had seen fewer of the big punchlines on the commercials.

First tragedy, then farce.
he had a good sitcom on Fox, but it had a Friday timeslot and died quickly..

but other than the Weinerdog, that show on ABC was awful.
 
Any chance they'll air this again this week? I've missed it both times it's been on. :(

Anyway, I'm also a big fan of my "homeboy" Norm (like me, he's from Quebec city). He's the best I've seen at Weekend Update, by far. The movie he did with Dave Chappelle and Danny DeVito (Screwed, was it) was beyond atrocious though.
