Comments
Norm hosting the ESPY awards is my favorite, although extremely cringey. Congratulating the Heisman Trophy winner and his bit about "And no one can take that away from you... Unless you murder your wife" is classic. Norm seemed to love making people uncomfortable (the audience reactions are awesome), which is a very "old school" take on comedy, and also problematic as you all mentioned. There's also a 35 minute YouTube cut of all his OJ quips on Weekend Update. He did comedy on his terms.
