I love the childlike joy on his face when he tells his jokes. RIP

[mercoid]

Conan once said one of the things that makes Norm so funny is just the “sheer audacity” he has to tell such silly simplistic, outrageously long jokes. The rest is his persona and delivery.
You can tell he’s a highly intelligent yet unpretentious person.
My favorite comedian always. RIP Norm.

Norm has that rare gift of being able to make any line seem funny.

"He heard the child's wailing plaintive cry. He didn't say 'plaintive' you know, he's a farmer"

[mtrps_]

These hi res videos of Norm are gonna be legendary in the years to come.

I was a little taken aback when he said the name of his town and it wasn't Temiscaming, Quebec, home of the infamous Jacques DeGatineau

" ..he had a bunch of pigs there, you know, he had a bunch of pigs..a..b..a..a..bunch of 'em and... "
Show me anybody who could pull off intentionally stuttering through something like that while telling a pig joke on the late night show and absolutely murdering. To me he is the best comic that has ever lived.

[brettmagnuson]

Norm is the king of stringing you along with useless details to get your mind so tied in a knot that it makes the punchline serve as an incredible mental relief.

"One of the pigs had a wooden leg"
that's already hilarious

"I'm not Norm" better increase his storage capacity, Team Coco is releasing all HD Norm content now.

"he didn't really use the word inferno, he's a farmer" 😂😂😂

[Bushmills]

I love how Conan has absolute trust in Norm every time he's on

[alpbet]

'We escaped that inferno'
He didn't use 'inferno', he's just a farmer.

He said, 'We escaped that conflagration'

I am laughing so hard at this! RIP Norm

At 03:42 Conan says "Mr. Abraham Lincoln, everybody" refers to Lincoln's famous tendency to tell long funny stories. Going back to his earlier days he was a famously good story teller, which is why Norm Macdonald kinda reminded me of him too!! Excellent story-tellers.

"I don't know who they are but Phil Hartman is great" 🤣🤣🤣

[sagitariusa]

I says to the guy I says I says to him. Please come back Norm 😭

My heart warms every time you upload a Norm clips these days. Never let this man's comedy disappear, share it everywhere.

[ice]

Love the gentle tap of approval at 3:48

[spillogic]

Conan gets him at a different level. Love you both forever.

[JohnPaul-suqn]

Oh this is a new one for me, I haven't seen this clip. Thanks for all the Norm clips. Also I loved Conan's recent podcast talking about Norm, it would be nice if a lot more people can listen to it
