Colin drunkly describes Norm

[APizzle90]

Norm MacDonald > Colin Quinn

[BirdofSaxony]

I'm disappointed that Norm doesn't know who Leonard Cohen is. :/

[jhohcable]

Loved this moment, from Norm's final episode even. You can tell Norm wrote some of this with Colin, specifically by the use of the word "ridiculous."

I kinda wish that Norm and Colin hosted WU together, that would've been awesome, instead of just Colin on his own. At least Tough Crowd was a great show though.

[adrastea]

colin brings laughter everywhere he goes. fun fact: 2 comments below you is the phrase "obama hates jews".

[alblmfld]

Norm was the best weekend up date guy. Still can't believe he was fired because the head guy at NBC didn't think he was funny.

[TheRealEzzy]

colin is annoying as fuck

[dedbusted]

that lame Jew they have on there now has no style.

[RollingOrmond]

@dedbusted Fuck you redneck.

[dedbusted]

@RollingOrmond First of all, I am not what you Americans call a "redneck" (if you are American you are probably closer to being one, since most Americans are brainwashed simpletons). Second of all, if you think only rednecks dislike Jews you have much to learn. What do you think the occupy Wallstreet movement is about? What do you think anti-New World Order protests are about? What do you think the whole war against the West is about? Go back to your video games and gadgets you naive consumer.

[dedbusted]

@RollingOrmond By the way, would you call Obama a redneck? Why not? He is a classic Jew-hater, and only turns to the Jews when he needs their money.

[RollingOrmond]

@dedbusted I was calling you a redneck, dipshit, and no one needs your lies about Obama.

[dedbusted]

@RollingOrmond You cannot read. I wrote: "WOULD you call Obama a redneck?" And, by the way, Obama hates Jews and only uses them for money.

[hospitaler808]

drubk ierish speak: youre a ridicuyluos, youre a ridiculous person

[Xhalph]

This clip is actually kinda meta if you watch it while drunk.

[DaBigChalk1991]

well its official, murder. . . is legal in the state of california. Norm's best moment ever

[RollingOrmond]

@Sydney10abc No, by shit I meant waste extrecated from a living organism's anus, and I'm still correct.

[GoBlue23118]

@RollingOrmond crack whore seems mild compared to that. What are you? SOME KIND OF CRACK WHORE?

[RollingOrmond]

@GoBlue23118 that punchline never ever gets tired.

[RollingOrmond]

Norm MacDonald was such a lazy, can't-even-open-his mouth all the way host on Weekend Update, with the same lousy Frank Stallone/crack whore punchline every time. Quinn at least had inventive comebacks.

[xamphor]

@RollingOrmond actually, colin quinn was an unfunny faggot and norm was too dry for you

[RollingOrmond]

@xamphor If "too dry" means "untalented," you're right. And Colin could kick your loser ass, so watch it.

[sorukai]

@RollingOrmond talent in relation to comedy is too subjective for someone to have an opinion on whether a comedian is truly funny or not. However, I can assure you that your opinion of Norm is in a super minority.

[RollingOrmond]

@sorukai That's because the masses gladly accept shit.

[jfradkin]

I love the Jim Lahey character, but mgiht I suggest that I have never seen a better 'drunk' act than Foster Brooks. Check out this one: YcYTQokKdIg

[MckyMseNTarotCrds]

Norm and Colin were both so great on the old SNL. "When are we gonna get that beer?" But Norm is such a weird, awesomely un-hip guy, I bet he actually doesn't know who Leonard Cohen is.

[themooddisorders]

was he cleaning up semen?

[omer008]

this colin guy was not funny or talented at all. Why was he even on the update?

[nickster699]

@Sydney10abcNorm said what? That he was a ridiculous man? Or that he would come up with a CD called Ridiculous? And may I ask how u would be in the know? Am a big Norm fan as u probably can tell...

[arielrati]

Does anyone have the video where Will Ferrell throws up next to Norm in Weekend Update? Please upload that video.....

[ssw000]

@arielrati if you haven't seen it again yet, there's two dailymotion videos called "best of wu with norm macdonald" and a clip of that ferrell scene is in pt 2

[unfortunatebeam]

Don't even know who that is? haha is he serious? Proud to be a dumbass I guess eh Norm?

[buffi90]

@unfortunatebeam Thanks my fiend! I've allways wanted to watch that video again. I watched it for the last time on 2003 in Argentina, and never seen it again until now. But thanks! god bless you....

[unfortunatebeam]

@buffi90 watch what video my fiend???

[mark224]

anyone have the whole thing

[nickster699]

I wonder if Norm coming up with his CD "Ridiculous" has anything to do with that sketch???

[equalitykills]

he reminds me of chris matthews.

[cpwndProductions]

@ OP, do you happen to know the air date of this Weekend update?

[UnAmericanBandstand]

I have missed this more than you will ever know!! I spent my teenage years adoring these two fellas and ,,,long story short....I had no money- no car- lived in a dump- no jobs available- and all we had was SNL every week.I would give my left tit just to re-live ten minutes of those days. Its the truth. I love these guys a lot. Quinn is the LEGEND!!!!! Thank you for this.

[TayR0C]

@UnAmericanBandstand

okay, Ricky

[johnnytastetest]

@UnAmericanBandstand - Norm MacDonald is 1000x funnier than Quinn, though.

[UnAmericanBandstand]

@johnnytastetest Ah I didnt feel like replying to comments tonight. I havent checked in to read them in a while. But.....Norm & Colin are both funny as hell. Quinn was always my personal favorite. Still is. I miss Norm cuz he was just BLUNTLY honest and didnt care. Quinn has that nasally, dry humor that is adorable. I dunno,,,,love em both. But Quinn is the Legend. Best to ya and hope yr years is good so far. "Jen"

[ChrisZ70]

Wow, what a shame that you do not appreciate how astoundingly funny Colin Quinn actually is. This is the greatest drunk impersonation I've ever seen; absolutely unrivalled in its subtlety and verisimilitude. It's extraordinary. Colin Quinn is the OPPOSITE of "lame and unfunny." Unfortunately, his talent is lost you people like "corbalt1".

[slitheringinterstate]

ChrisZ70,

I know I speak for all of us when I say, we just wish you had a higher IQ.

"absolutely unrivalled in its subtlety and verisimilitude"...please don't subject us all to your lonely attempts at playing "I'm a lofty New York Times film critic" make-beleive. Firstly, they spell "unrivalled" correctly. Secondly, they have the good sense to know Colin Quinn is a talentless cunt with the range of a water pistol.

And thirdly, they aren't reduced to make-beleive-critic games on youtube

[ChrisZ70]

@slitheringinterstate I spelled 'unrivalled' correctly. Many words have variant spellings, more than one 'correct' spelling, and 'unrivalled' is one such. See the American Heritage College Dictionary, 4th Ed.: "unrivaled OR unrivalled". I'm sorry I used words that are bigger than you're used to; I guess it's like exposing Frankenstein to fire. I should have said, "Colin Quinn drunk impression awesome. Me like." Then, while you wouldn't have agreed with me, you'd've said "He's one of us!"LOL

[slitheringinterstate]

ChrisZ70,

Your lack of intelligence is embarassing enough. While desperately writing multiple responses for every one I write you is satisfying in how effortlessly I've traumatized your pretty little head, I still hate to see your embarassment compounded by publically confirming your lack of thick skin right on the heels of your vapid-intellect confirmation. You're adorable though; I want to pet you like a lap dog. Some undersexed child clutching at semantical-gotcha. A precious lot. xoxox

[ChrisZ70]

@slitheringinterstate The word 'embarrassing' has two ars. And "publically"? Don't you mean "publicly"? Your spelling errors have undermined your credibility. Let's recap: You call me out for spelling when in fact I spelled correctly, whereas you yourself have made multiple egregious spelling errors. You accuse me of wordiness yet your last post is ridiculously wordy and says nothing. Mine have been accurate and incisive; yours have been absurd and vulgar personal attacks. I'm done w/you.

[slitheringinterstate]

Oh precious Z270,

2 more responses for my 1; having you on such an amusing psychological string is deeply satisfying. Here, I'll make your laughably mediocre IQ blow a gasket in its attempt to keep up with semantical triviality.

Z207, U r knot vary smartt. I am the bedder speler owt of the too of us. You can trie to fynd speling arrors in my righting but u will knot b abel too.

(lol...dance for me puppet, dance i say lol)

[fjdrt23]

@slitheringinterstate Wow my mind blew a gasket when you used semantical triviality in a sentence. That's even worse than verisimilitude. That was a viscous fight btw. Colin is a funny guy in my opinion but to each there own. I don't think he's exactly known for his characters, and this is a good example. But he's a funny guy at roasts and supposedly an incredibly talented comedy writer. More stream of consciousness as a stand up, as opposed to his roasting. Not every ones thing.

[jenny9857]

@slitheringinterstate The modern field of intelligence testing began with the Stanford-Binet test. It is worth noting that Alfred Binet, who created the IQ test in 1904, was aiming to identify students who could benefit from extra help in school: his assumption was that lower IQ indicated the need for more teaching, not an inability to learn. Indeed, this interpretation is still held by modern experts. A popular modern IQ test is the Raven's progressive matrices test

found that on the internet

[ChrisZ70]

@slitheringinterstate BTW it's spelled "make-believe critic" and not "make-beleive-critic". You reversed the "ie" in "believe," and you incorrectly hyphenated "beleive"[sic] and "critic". The two words should not be hyphenated; only "make-believe" should. You're welcome.

[ub3rskillz]

@ChrisZ70 i would disagree with you sir Jim Lahey from Trailer Park Boys is the best drunk ever unrivaled truly.

[Matika]

@ub3rskillz hard as fuck

[ChrisZ70]

@ub3rskillz I watched the scene you're talking about. It's not even close to Colin's. I don't know why/how your comment got 20 thumbs up. People are dumb, I guess.

[ub3rskillz]

@ChrisZ70 That or your dumb. 20 on 1 says your the retard here the stats don't lie, this Colin guy is good though.

[ChrisZ70]

@ub3rskillz It's spelled "you're" and not "your".  Popularity does not equal quality. Just look at the Sarah Palin phenomenon.

[ub3rskillz]

@ChrisZ70 thx for clearing that up professor sry i meant douche bag.

[HateMachine103190]

@ub3rskillz Yes! Got to respect the Canadian Trailer Park Supervisor's ability to hammer the booze.

[BloodNorseGods]

@ub3rskillz first lahey is gay, though quinn could do all that lahey did without being a fag, so can leary, and stewart they all had their day, Remember george carlin I bet, Norm McDonald is a beast

[emperorzombie85]

@ub3rskillz YES!



[KevinKolbGOAT]

@ChrisZ70 I have to agree. This is very believable acting.

[danogzilla]

need the rest of this clip, i think colin starts calling norm and weekend update bush league. they did a scripted reenactment a few weeks later that was lame.

[corbalt1]

this video just about sums up how lame and unfunny colin quinn is

[knarisa]

@corbalt1 agreed. my least favorite weekend update anchor too.

[whb786]

@corbalt1 Ask any stand up comic working, Who's the funniest comedian out there? 9 times out of 10 they'll say Colin Quinn. You don' t know shit about comedy. You are also ignorant and retarded if you form your opinion on a guy from a 30 sec clip. Moron

[Pinfeldorf]

@whb786 I think there would be a much bigger list than 90% Colin Quinn and 10% other guys. Sam Kinnison, Richard Pryor, George Carlin, Mitch Hedberg, Rodney Dangerfield and some of the guys older than I can remember are sure to be higher on that list than Colin Quinn for 90% of comedians.
