Paul Magne Haakonsen Right, well this was the first and most likely also last time that I watched Norm Mcdonals doing stand-up comedy.Sure, there were some good jokes and a good laugh here and there, but as a whole then the show just didn't pack enough of a punch.The onstage presence and the inanimate mannerisms of Norm Mcdonald just made him look like a wooden puppet put on the stage to perform.Some of the delivery of the material was a bit scrambled and confusing, as if he wasn't properly prepared or had problems remembering his own act.This was not an outstanding stand-up comedy performance, and I have actually been deterred from watching more of his act.

gavin6942 In this new stand-up special, Norm Macdonald delivers sly, deadpan observations from an older -- and perhaps even wiser -- point of view.I'm not sure if I have heard these jokes before, or if I accidentally watched this special twice. Either way, despite a feeling of deja vu, it was still a knockout performance.The style is not for everyone. The deadpan delivery, the odd observations... this is not Jerry Seinfeld and it is definitely not a series of laugh-out-loud jokes. This is a slow burn that builds until you are inside the world of Norm. Apolitical, not terribly obscene or offensive... just offbeat. And it works.

melosolice-28268 So i have not found him funny in a long time, early on in him career he was new and funny. But as he has gotten older, I just don't get it. I like a lot of shows on Netflix but this is one of the worst. Netflix touts this as "on sex, dating and the absurdities of fame". It is not cutting edge funny just sad. As for the "absurdities of fame" well at this point her career looks more like infamous! Stay away from this trash, i am done with watching anymore of his stuff.

O2D I've always been a huge fan of Norm MacDonald.I've even been re-watching Norm for the last couple days.I usually laugh at everything he says but this special is by far the least funny thing he has ever done.He had some good jokes.There's one about auto-erotic asphyxiation that was really good(even though I saw the punch line coming a mile away) and a couple times he mentions all the horrible things happening in the world, like that it's raining in the forests. Those were the only times he was really funny in this special. The most disappointing part is that he reused a few old jokes.That's acceptable when you're doing a talk show but not when you're getting millions to do a Netflix special. While this was Norm at his worst, it's still better than most stand-up specials.
