- Actor and comedian Rob Schneider will perform in San Antonio at the AT&T Center this Sunday, but he almost decided not to. Watch his one-on-one interview with Mike Osterhage.
Thanks Rob Schneider for paying tribute to Norm‘s comedic genius
You could tell he'd been crying his eyes were red. Must have been a true friend
100%
Hangover
After reading what he wrote of his mother passing. And his daughter's fertility issues then baby. Rob is an intelligent and emotionally amazing human.
He's an ACTOR. Never believe anything and actor says or does.
He's a lousy actor so I think he's being fully genuine. Also, why would he be acting is? His close friend just died, so why wouldn't he be teary-eyed? Dont be such a cynic.
Rob did a great service to Norm's legacy.
Didn't know Ethio was man of great taste.
Glad to see you here.
Rest in peace Norm. You are forever a legend.
@Shocked sez u
@John Windham ya know, in your defense... there’s a good reason a nice fella like you wouldn’t want to join Rob in the pool....... Commies can’t float!!! 🤣
yep. Hacks have to prop each other up to have some kind of credibility. Chappelle has coughed up funnier things than Norms entire career
@@sunshinemarie2703 Commies can’t float is the weirdest comeback I’ve read but also it’s very clear Norm (and most other comedians) hated Rob.
Rob, So sorry for you loss. This was a heavy blow for me. I cannot imagine how heavy it is for his close friends. Big hugs bro.
His delivery, his deadpan delivery,…… he was the best. I’m going to miss him for a very long time.
The way he laughed when he said: I’ll do some of Norm’s jokes at 4:06, you can tell how funny he thought Norm was.
“I’m pretty sure, I’m not a doctor, but I’m pretty sure if you die, the cancer dies at the same time. That’s not a loss. That’s a draw.”

he was wrong, we all lost. everyone but norm. he won
You're really copy+pasting this on every video huh
Donate to the Leukemia foundation in Norm’s honour.

Not many celeb deaths get to me but this one really stung and has stayed with me ever since I heard the news yesterday, I know this one will take a few days for me to get over. For me personally, Norm passing hurt just as much when I heard about Robin Williams and the late, great Philip Seymour Hoffman passing, both in 2014 I believe, too. Definitely those are the top 3 saddest celeb deaths of the past 10 years. RIP Norm, you were a great comedian and even better man. I hope Farley had a good one for when you got up there.
I know. I was crying like a baby a few minutes ago. He was incredible.
All 3 were true artists without ego and authentic. That's why it hurts so bad. For me it was Chester the last time I felt like this. But his was different because his was "voluntary". Great points.
First one that ALMOST made me cry
I had to take a minute because I was at work, but Norm was apart of my life growing up from the Norm show to voicing Norm the genie in the fairly oddparents
Agreed
To all the celebrities that Norm roasted: Millions of people laughed at your expense and we enjoyed it immensely.
You know who loves this comment? You guessed it...
Frank Stallone
The world is a little darker without Norm. Stay strong Rob.
more than a "little darker" for me
I'm from Scotland and only started watching norm in lockdown and have watched so so .much of him. I feel sad. Truly unique comic
Kind words, Rob. I really appreciate hearing comedians giving norm the praise he deserves. The man was a genius, and personally my favorite comedian of ALL time. RIP Norm… god I feel like I got a yack on my chest
Me too brother. Me too. Norm’s death will forever remind me of that tragedy.
hhahahah
If you got a yak on your chest you should call 9/11
dont riff on it, thats the end of the joke, that he has a yak on his chest
@@tchalk I’m sure that’s what Norm would have wanted. No more jokes.
When told not to say something, Norm would say it and not care about the consequences. Him and Farley are cracking jokes in Heaven now.
@alec r27 Surprisingly (to me), Norm was actually a devout Christian
Rob was incredible in this interview. You could see the grief in his eyes but he managed to make me smile. I wiser man then myself once said its one thing to make people laugh its another to make people smile
Rob I could sense how much he meant to you. You’re so lucky to have known him in a personal level. RIP Norm!
His comedy always sounded like it was skirting on the edge of disaster or could fall apart at any moment, but it never does and he always got his laugh. Even when some jokes didn't really land the way he wanted them to, he could still "bomb" more funnily than most other comedians actually trying to be funny. One of a kind, and there will never be another like him. Gone too soon. Thank you for everything you gave to us, Norm.
he purposefully would "bomb", thought that was funny too, like a comedic fall
@@Kate98755 Like the Bob Saget roast where he told all the lame jokes. I just heard Jon Lovitz talking about how they told him to go out and be dirty but be funny so he went out telling clean jokes that weren’t funny. The other comedians were laughing because they knew Norm but Jon said they had to add laughs in for tv because the audience was quiet.
I laughed when I saw it though just because of Norm’s delivery and I love corny jokes.
Even when the joke doesn't work he digs in deep so it makes it funny
I was never lucky enough to meet Norm in person, but I have met Rob a few years ago, and he was so incredibly nice and generous to me
Nice!
Agreed! I have met quite a few celebrities and Rob Schneider is easily the most friendly and genuine with his fans.
Amen. Rob had a connecting flight that got canceled at DFW about 10 years ago. He was at a restaurant and you could tell he was trying to sink down in his booth and just relax. I was outside the place when he was leaving. I called his name and recited a few lines from “Buddy” that he did with Sandler on “They’re all gonna laugh at you”. He lit up and was shocked someone remembered that sketch. We talked for several minutes and he went on his way. Very friendly.
See my Rob Schneider story above. It is Norm Macdonald certified.
Rob Schneider was an Animal, then he was a woman, then he was a stapler...now Rob Schneider...is a genuine and cool dude.
A stapler?
@@MaximumCarne rob Schneider is “The Stapler”
@@agentscarn7270 ok got it
@@MaximumCarne South Park reference. UA-cam it
For another Norm/South Park/Rob tie-in, go watch the trailer for Chairman of the Board and the Conan/Norm/Courtney Thorne-Smith interview 😂
Norm is one of those rare comedians that would literally have you laughing yourself into tears..to me his delivery was the funniest thing about him..he could take anything that's not funny and make it funny just by his hilarious delivery .RIP to one of the best.
Thanks for the decades of laughs Norm...RIP.
You can tell how much Norm made an impact on comedians and others. He wasn't just a comedian, he was a story teller and a weaver of the spoken word. He stood up for what he thought was right and had no truck for the politically correct. RIP Norm, you were a genius.
Exactly! Rare breed. A true comic through and through and always came with the facts over feelings. The truth is always funnier on stage. Authenticity always makes for better connection to the audience.
Comedians comedian
You described him beautifully... " A weaver of the spoken word!" Brilliant.
@@randall7853 .
Now that’s a great little tribute. Cheers
God damn man, Norm MacDonald was an absolute treasure. I cant say enough good things about him. Our generations Aristotle, the Bob Dylan of comedy. I cant imagine missing someone I've never met more than I miss norm right now.
Sorry, did you just compare Norm to Aristotle? Don’t get me wrong, Norm was one of my favourite comedians, if not ‘the’ favourite, but he’s not Aristotle (I’m Canadian so there is bias here).
Well I'm Greek sooooooooo
Norm can just mumble, and an audience would crack up.
RIP a treasure and a legend.
I’m really going to miss Norm. He was my favorite comedian. Always so clever with his jokes, even when he probably wasn’t trying. I’ll always remember his little smirk after telling a joke that no one else got. Most of all I’ll remember how much he made smile.
We miss you Norm ❤️you made the world laugh but today you made the world mourn .
“When you’re dead, you’re dead. But you’re not quite so dead if you contribute something.”~John Dunsworth
Good old Lahey.
That was a powerful end to the season.
@@thizzlemetimbrs8194 massive understatement
I love how Rob is on the brink of tears, recounting old Norm stories and the host is just standing there smiling hysterically. Norm would have definitely had something to say about the way ppl respond to his passing.
No one had a delivery like Norm. Just his voice and the wacky things he would say cracked me up.
I remember when Sam Kinison passed away, I cried.
Norms' passing brought tears again.
They both brought me to tears while laughing so hard.
They both brought me to tears when they left us too early and sudden.
Norm telling the moth joke on Conan O'Brian is classic.
Rest in peace.
That and the "Wife is a battleax" jokes are timeless.
Norm MacDonald was a comic genius. His delivery and material was second to none. His intelligence and his wit will be greatly missed by millions of people. What a legacy he leaves. RIP Norm.
The great comedic actor John Candy who died too young was another one who left a hole in my heart cuz I love comedy, it helps me forget my own struggles and their work gave me a respite from this hard world. RIP Norm, you will be missed.
Can’t wait to hear Adam Sandler make a “Norm MacDonald Song”
The Canadian Screen Awards that he hosted were my all time favorite Norm moments. Love you Norm!
thanks Rob for making me laugh. he is absolutely right that Norm would not want anyone to cancel comedy shows to grieve for him. we need to grieve for him through his comedy. Norm jokes just became public domain!
I was thinking about Norm this morning, remembering some of his bits when suddenly "Turd Fergusen" crossed my mind, and I just busted up.
One of the most loved and adored comedians by his peers and loyal fanbase. I'm going to miss him so much. Love goes out to his family and close friends 💕
I had the pleasure of spending, maybe a full 3 minutes alone with Norm in a room chatting. The whole time he wasn't being funny at all, but he radiated warmth. He was present and gracious.
My favorite comic ever. Glad I got to tell him that.
Seeing all the world's best comedians pass away or grow older makes me worry that comedy will not live on. Our time isn't the best but I am grateful that I live in an era where I could see some of the greatest comedic minds that will no doubt go down in history. RIP Norm
Saying a quick prayer for Bill Burr.
That was incredibly heartfelt.
Norm is one of the best to ever do it. His film Dirty Work is very underrated. RIP Norm 🙏
One of the great movies of all time lol
Is that…..a dead HOOKER in the trunk?😂
@@jerryp7721 'god, ive never seen so many dead hookers in my life!!'
'..lord knows i have'
🤣
Yes & don't forget the Saigon HooooooOOORrrr who bit the tip of Chris Farleys nose off.
Norm was the best...he ALWAYS made me smile. Just hearing him speak made me smile. Now I am sad.
Loved Norm MacDonald. So sad I never got a chance to see him perform but happy to have all the great content he created over the years. True legend and no one else will ever be like him. Big loss.
Oh no, just hearing this, I loved Norm, he was one of a kind, great comedian but also great human being….RIP Norm, you lifted me up every time 🙏🏽
Thanks for doing that Rob. That was the single best and most comforting thing I found.
Norm and super Dave must be having one hell of a time.
You bet. Having a great conversation. Laughing.
@@crashburn3292 I teared up when I heard about norm. Anytime my PTSD or depression would kick in I would just binge norm clips and I would be ok. I wish I could of thanked him for what he has done and will continue to do for me. Bless you norm you crazy SOB.
RIP NORM YOU LEFT US HERE
When he would show up on SNL jeopardy as Burt Reynolds, I lost it every time.
Got to love these guys. Anyone who can make us feel a little better with their ability to share themselves with others is a great human being.
I wish I could have met him in person. I feel like I knew him, he was such a likable guy. I'm gonna really miss not getting a new norm joke. Love you Norm
Love Norm MacDonald. I'm glad Rob Schneider could speak about his legacy from inside his home's a/c duct.
He could make you laugh no matter what... he was a gift
Norm was the bravest guy I think we have ever had the pleasure of enjoying.. he’s been my favorite since the 90’s.. fearless.. love the man.. I usually never get upset about these things.. I am upset. He was the most truthful man on tv and other mediums
Sad that that Era of SNL is so long gone. Farley, Hartman, Mcdonald.
Jan Hooks, too.
I remember thinking Rob was a hack comedian, but as paid more attention I noticed his brilliance. RIP Norm. Great comedians hang together
The joint in his but crack is super funny
No, you were right with your original thought.
@@birdy1numnum I agree with you as of recently. We saw him at the San Antonio show. Needless to say, we stayed about thirty mins because he only talked or "joked" about how great Trump is and how Covid isn't real. There was nothing funny. He was just making fun of those who aren't Trump fans or anti-vaxxers. We went there to laugh and have a great time and not think about Covid or Trump for that matter. That didn't happen.
@@lelulollie ugh. I hope you got your money back. Another doofus who thinks Trump was good...uh, nope.
"hack" Big Stan is great.
we love you Norm. You've inspired me to just let loose and be yourself. Thanks for all the great laughs. I'll never forget you man. Now only you and GOD know if OJ is really guilty hahah. RIP
This was touching. And spot on.
I can’t understand why his loss bothers me so much
Norm Macdonald was genuine
Every laugh is a gift.
Me too....here's the weird thing..starting bout a month ago.. randomly started getting yt suggestion videos and clips of Norm McDonald..thought it was odd cuz things like celebrities comedians etc don't normally come up on my suggestions ..clicked on a couple etc but didn't really think that much bout it...but there was a particular video that caught my attention, it was Norm McDonald talks about God..so clicked on it expecting to hear some typical bs about God from yet another Hollywood celebrity liberal etc. maybe some jokes etc etc. Anyway I was shocked to hear him and his beliefs..like I said I was expecting the opposite..and for some reason my heart went out to him I could sense a soul in pain or something..I never had any strong opinion of him good or bad before this...and I kinda took a interest in him after that video ..did some searching for more videos on him just trying to find out more bout how why changed his beliefs etc. I don't know how to explain it but those clips of Norm talking bout God and Jesus left an impression on me for some reason..I don't know how to explain it..when I heard he passed away ..I just had a moment.. felt saddened .
Norm you are in Paradise with our Lord Jesus now.
No more tears or suffering for you.
PRAISE Jesus!!!
Real human being
Because he can never be duplicated. Like Muhammad Ali. There are certain humans who are just unique and he was one. Norms passing really bummed me out, still does now.
in all the Septembers of U.S history, norms passing has to be the biggest tragedy to happen in this tragic month
The next 9/11 is only going to remind me of that tragedy that happened yesterday...
Come on, now I’m reminded of that other terrible tragedy
Things are about to get really bad, so keep this in perspective.
@@sounfunnyitshilarious8349 oh ya i forgot bout that one. you mean the day after norms passing right?
Reminds me of that terrible airline
Rob knew he was sick and kept it private...I don't think Norm even knew he knew
How do you know that?
Rob did know and did keep it quiet but wasn't really sure he even knew or not but knew enough to know not to say anything. That's a true friend. That I know.
Rob told Adam Corolla he had no idea Norm was sick.
@@johnurban7333 watch it again. He told Adam he knew something was up when he checked the medicine cabinet in Norms hotel room.
@@robcall4551 correct...and cancer/chemo meds are not something ypu confuse with others. Not like an anti-convulsant that can be used for epilepsy, bipolar disorder or whatever. When you see cancer drugs you can pretty much assume ypu're dealing with cancer
"Me name's McManus....." so beings the greatest monologue in cinematic history.
I can imagine norm in heaven shouting “hey Rob stop stealing my jokes”
I don't cry when celebrities die, but I had tears when I heard about Norm even though I do own a dog house 😭😭😭
Me too. He was loved man. Glad you own a dog house and you’re not one of them gays
@@renehagens4360 it's part of a Norm Macdonald joke he told once.
Norm was special. His voice could lift your spirits alone. Rest In Peace.
Love Rob's tribute. They were all friends so imagine the shock and sadness compared to what we felt. I had just heard the interview Norm did with Howard Stern and Norm told a frig joke. Seemed like it was going nowhere then, bam, he delivered!
I wonder how Artie is doing?
Norm and Artie were super close. Dirty work.
He could go off the deep end.
Somebody check in on Artie.
Artie responded a couple days ago. Beautiful eulogy. Seems to be doing well, following his program, and maintaining sobriety.
Adam Eget is probably a wreck
@@jerryp7721 Thanks Jerry. I got a soft spot for that S.O.B.
( Now THAT is something Norm would say)
@@TrudyPatootie So do I. He’s got a podcast from his Hoboken place called “Arties Sober House”, I think. Rooting for him as well!
The greatest comic’s comic that ever lived. The best part about Norm was he was not only the funniest man in the room, he was the smartest one too. He had faith in God and he never once joked about Donald Trump because as he said only bad comics make jokes about Trump. Low hanging fruit. A great conservative was Norm. Not many people know that. And remember he was always the smartest man in the room.
YES! EXACTLY BRO. My thoughts exactly. I love Norm I love Trump and I Love Jesus Christ!
@@ZennyReacts absolutely hilarious dude.
He wasn't a conservative and said on the record that he didn't like being called a conservative. He was a moderate.
@@thebrazilianatlantis165 whatever you want to believe but he was born in Quebec City to start. You can believe what you want about what he says to entertainment journalists. Enjoy your day.
@@ZennyReacts Yep. literally said doing political material was hack. I respect your opinion and you're free to have it, but don't be like " I love this deceased person, they believed what I do."
He was a comic and a master of the art with hang ups he was honest about. You need to perceive art correctly, my friend.
I like Rob S. He's real, and has good morals, and a patriot. That was really sweet of Rob to say something on Norm's behalf. God Bless Norm M., and his family and friends. He brought joy to the world with his humor. Prayers for Norm McDonald, his family and friends! 🕆❤
Almost 5 months and I still miss Norm. He was a legend. Always made me laugh, or at the very least, smile.
I can’t believe I’ll never be able to ask him where he got his ideas from. Goodbye, sir. Hope your friends and family are doing well.
What a loss to the world, Norm was the best, this is horrible.
Hugs bro. Norm IS the best. He will always live on through his amazing jokes on youtube...
Norm had GREAT DELIVERY, and his expressions were HYSTERICAL!!!!
Thank you norm😃🙏🐻❤️
I realized how deep of a mind Norm had when he said something along the lines of "no one wants to hear comedy from someone smarter than you." Who knew, keeping his secret this whole time that time he was really trying to teaching us a much deeper lesson:
"no one wants to hear comedy out of a tumor riddled old man."
We love you Norm.
irreplaceable ....perfect word. he just was....him. and that's why we loved him. such a spirit and heart. Love ya' Norm
Couldnt have picked a better person to speak about the great legend Norm
Sucks to lose a friend
Yep...lost my best bud 15yrs ago
My bf growing up just died last week at 31.
Soo random, then Norm outta nowhere.. 😔
This month has been bad, reminds me of that national tragedy.
Schneider, like most people (comics included), missed Norm's point about being the smartest guy in the room and be _insufferable,_ or pretend not to know anything while, secretly, _really_ be the smartest guy and have people on your side.
Also, morbid humor was where Norm's true genius came out. And, as he famously said about Chaplin,
"Can _anyone_ sit through more than five minutes of that stuff?"
Yup genius timing and delivery!
RIP Norm, one of the all-time comedic greats!!
The news anchor not getting the joke at all was hilarious. Norm would've loved that.
I guess life's only fair in heaven.
hopefully there is a heaven
"I'll do some of Norm's jokes". That's nice, but nobody could tell them like Norm.
Losing these great actors is heartbreaking. Robin Williams was the hardest for me to deal with and always will be. But there are so many more that people tend to forget. Like John Belushi, John Candy, John Ritter, Chris Farley, Lucille Ball, the list goes on. We will miss them all.
I implore every comedian and entertainer out there that has told Norm stories and imitated Norm doing a bit to NOT stop. Keep him alive for all of us, please.
I think this and Trebek are the only two “celebrity” deaths I’ve ever cared about. Norm was my all time favorite. Balls of steel and original.
Norm killed on stage…Oj killed his wife, and the hypocrisy was the worst thing about it.
It helps that it's clear that beyond their fame and celebrity, they were honest people who contributed to the happiness and well-being of others. Trebek and Norm lived their roles without cynicism -- Norm was biting and acerbic, but his joking criticisms were an honest, unflinching means to use comedy as a vehicle to share truth with a resistant, often ignorant public. As for Trebek, he was a humble genius with a huge stage, and he used it to pursue and promote curiosity and the appreciation of knowledge. To him, a well-read, informed public was a happy public, less likely to make choices that harm others. For both, a deep understanding of history and its present implications, and the insistence on telling the truth through their respective jokes and facts, placed them among the very best of us.
RIP to two great people.
@@bobzmuda9603 they both had courage
What a loss😥😥
I don't know much about Rob Schneider, laughed at his antics on SNL; sometimes critics haven't been too kind to him.... but hearing him here in this interview I have a lot of respect. He's very thoughtful and well-spoken. What a great tribute to Norm Macdonald.
Always good to hear from a comedian about a fellow performer. They have a special brotherhood.
The world is mourning right along with you Robbo. His death hit me right in my feels. 😭🤮🤬😡💩👎
Rest well Norman...and we thank you
The king is dead ,
Long live the king.
Rob, you made my heart weep. He was lucky to have a friend like you. Note to self: never forget this great legend.
Thank you for this Rob. Well done. And thank you Mike for still being out there doing KSAT shows. It's been a LONG time since my KSAT days, but I really miss working with people like you.
He would stick to the principles of comedy to the very end, even if it was dark and could get him into trouble. And only he could get away with the most horrible things.
a National Tragedy
Very thoughtful and considerate from an incredibly smart and insightful person. Thank you Rob Schneider.
A funny man, building up another funny man's legacy. It's unheard of and why you're another one of the greats, Rob. God rest Norm's soul and God Bless Rob Schneider.
Interviewer's fake laughter... Couldn't be more leashed.
I meet Rob a couple weeks ago in a Scottadale restaurant.. my friends son went up to him and said hi… He was the nicest celebrity ever.. He was with his family, and took the time to talk to my friends son, introducing him to his family. He spent about 5 min chatting with him and asked if he wanted a photo at the end.. it was really cool.
Norm was awesome. I was privileged to see his Covid show, right before the lockdown at the Irvine Improv. Been a fan forever. RIP Norm
You will be missed 😢 💔
WOW. Life is Special when you have good friends. Thank You
