When Norm McDonald died in 2021The world was deeply complaining. McDonald, with his dead delivery and deliberately tasteless jokes, often dealt with anti-humor by telling jokes so many pinks and dating that people laughed at the Norm's insolence more than the jokes. As many people were as angry as they were impressed by the depths of his tastelessness during his style of "Saturday Night Live", where he would openly and repeatedly mention the crimes and alleged terrible acts committed by celebrities such as Simpson and Michael Acksex. McDonald, as too many comedians of his generation, also made a series of transphobic jokes during his career, though He eventually (clumsy) apologized for them. "God bless people," he said, "every right in the world should be given and anyone who wants to hurt them is bad."

McDonald may have been appreciated, but he was never completely mainstream, at least out of stand and SNL. He appeared in several films, but was usually in the roles of Kimo or provided speech performances. He too He co-wrote and starred in the 1998 "Dirty Work" comedy, " Although that film kind of tank in box office.

McDonald's biggest post-"SNL" was his. "The Norm Show" in 1999 was a network that McDonald co-created (with Bruce Helford) and starred, and moved to ABC for 54 episodes during three seasons. The premise was cute: McDonald played a character named Norm, a former hockey player who was expelled from the NHL after a scandalous gambling period and tax fraud. To stay out of jail, Norm - comical terrible, selfish friend without civic building talent - agreed to five years of community service. Meanwhile, his best friend and former social worker Lori (Lori Metkalph) had to keep him directly and MP.

However, frustratingly, the "normal show" is not available to follow nowhere.

"Normal Show" was popular and unpopular. Critics hated it, insecure as much as the series should be. The central wrap was that the Norm was a terrible person, but the show was often caustic and spiritual. He was supposed to help people against his will, but usually just raises them with arrogance. It did not help that McDonald's comedy style relied on his emotional, dead delivery, often linked to smuggling, porridge. Did he actually become more human with his social work? Because he never looked like that. Also, the cruelty of humor is convinced that the series will not age well.

Critics were not often confident in what to do "Norm Show", and is currently playing a 67% sporting grade Rotten tomatoes. Michele, writing about the Yorkyor Post, complained of McDoland's silence, claiming it was up to Metkalph to carry the series. Meanwhile, Elloel Stein, writing about Time magazine, noted that well, the series was just not that fun.

And yet, Norm has managed to last three seasons. The series was eventually released on DVD in 2010 by the shout! The plant, which, as always, included some great features for bonuses, not the least that were complete comments (for the first two seasons, as well as) by McDonald and Helford. After that the DVD came out of print, however, the shoot type of disappearance and can now be seen only on the second market or through online Butlega. Maybe DVDs didn't sell well. Perhaps humor is considered too dating. For whatever reason, the "normal show" never got to any official streaming platforms.

It is also possible that the original video master of the "normal show" will require a digital brush before the modern broadcast, and no studio wants to bother to pay for the money to save a vaguely show of questionable quality. McDonald was loved by comedians everywhere. His series, however, can remain forever in the dark.
