I'm patiently waiting for the one where he tells about his crack-smoking neighbour who always stops him to ask him how everything is. After answering, Norm always asks him in return "How about you? How's it going-with the crack, there?" Saw it when it aired super long ago and would love to see the whole bit.
@@ray.shoesmith Norm's greatest bit, that I don't hear anyone talking about. From a special "Me Doing Standup" about killing a lady and burying her in the woods. Worth a listen.
I thought I’d seen every Norm video out there. I love finding ones I haven’t! I’ve been way too addicted to watching Norm videos every night to unwind. Still so missed.
Actually it seems like Leno interjected less than both Conan and Letterman. Both obv had better chemistry with Norm, but Leno was fine. Everyone just loves to rag on Jay.
I'm not sure if Jay's paying attention or what. Like, I don't think he got the "Human Leg" joke at first, and then when he DOES get it, why does he try and ruin it? "Oh yeah I suppose so maybe depending on the size" LET THE JOKE BREATHE!
Man I miss this guy but the most amazing thing I take away from this clip is that in 1999 there was a Republican mayor of NYC and a Republican Governor of NYS! Man how things have changed over the past 20 years.
Normy, Normy, Normy..... I tell'ya Normy!!.. "because the light was on", the light Normy, the light, you know, i mean you, you the light, Normy..... RIP, :"-/
They all have their shtick and if you don’t understand or have never seen Jay’s stand up when he was coming up then you won’t get why he has to be that way with Norm. They both have their act.
Honestly Leno does try to normalize what Norm is saying... But he interjects less conversation and it makes Norm's comedy shine in a different way than Leno or Letterman does. I still love Norm on Letterman and especially Conan, but this appearance is underrated. ❤
Idk why everyone is knocking Leno when he's every bit as good as the others, and not only looked up to by Norm but an accomplished stand up himself. Norm is the best, and nothing will ever change that. Regardless of the host, the medium, the time period, or situation. Like a lot of you out here, I'm saddened beyond belief at the world's HUGE LOSS w the untimely passing of this formerly old chunk of coal now turned diamond.. but there's no need to pretend Jay is anything less then the others. It's clear we all want to go to the rope store because Norm is gone, and I too feel the pain. Peace to all of us.. but man alive, Norm will always be the best XO
Think i know why ive never seen this norm late night appearence before! because jay leno dead pans all of norms bits that even the crowd dont know what to do lol
He dragged it out on letterman . Dave gave him way more than he should’ve and then just said, let’s move on Norm 😂 Norm loved to piss off the snowflakes with political incorrectness. That’s probably all jay is thinking, oh no im gonna go down with him
It’s very rare to hear Jay genuinely laugh at one of his guests. Here you can hear him squealing which I surmise is his honest laugh on accounta I never heard tell of him squealing like that.
Hmmmmm…Does anyone know if he stole the stocking stuffer joke from Mitch or the other way around? I guess it’s possible they both thought of the same joke being that they are legends in comedy
3:18 What is happening here? Jay says "what do you want for Christmas" then back tracks and says he never said it. Then he gives the producers a weird look after Norm says it (which obv makes Norm say it again lol) Was this when they were trying to force "holidays" on everyone?
I miss Norm MacDonald Leno gave Norm MacDonald room to breathe in this segment This was a lovely exchange Leno and Norm MacDonald gelled well together Triple-jabbed Gilbert Gottfried, who died of a “heart condition,” is another comedian I miss much But Norm MacDonald is the best Who is as funny as Norm MacDonald and alive today?‽ I will pray for America. Please pray for me. God Bless you.
Why are you comparing the two of them? They're there in different roles. It's a lot easier to be funny when you have prepared material and you're just there for a few minutes. It's not so easy when you have to ad lib everything in response to what a guest says.
Unlike Dave or Conan, Leno doesn't exactly know what to do with that kind of stream of consciousness.
It's called conversation
@@BenOnBass A real meeting of the mind
Leno is a quisling
But no, he’s a good guy
Leno doesn't know how to do anything other than womanize
That’s called “a conversation” 🥱😂
Finally a late-night appearance that I had not seen. That human leg bit got me

Me too! Heading off to an Xmas party this eve and I ‘happen’ to have a mannequin leg in my garage … yep! Think I might do it!👍🏻🦵🏼
Yeah, I think I found the end of the internet.
Jay plays off of Norm like orange juice to toothpaste
🤣
Yeah Norm was annoyed Jay was blowing his bits lol
I've been a Jay Leno fan for many years, but he annoyed me here. It's as if he was saying, "no one is allowed to be funnier than me."
@@larrydickman4507 Norm was funnier sleeping than Jay will ever be trying his hardest.
No, Jays a good man.
Through sheer tyranny of will, this man managed to become the greatest stand up comedian that ever lived
He could somehow.... illuminate a room!
Nigga u gon say this on every new Norm vid for the top comment u Wildin
tyranny of will? What the fk does that even mean?
@@ray.shoesmith Norm's greatest bit, that I don't hear anyone talking about. From a special "Me Doing Standup" about killing a lady and burying her in the woods. Worth a listen.
@@bridgecross One of his best bits in my opininon
The band leader appreciated Norms humor. Could hear him laughing.
Kevin eubanks!
Boy, this late night appearance was, without a doubt, not Conan.
🎯🎯🎯
"...he was a good man though"
"that's the white out he puts on." ua-cam.com/video/R0d6oH5Lumc/v-deo.html
Is it my imagination or does Jay simply not “get” a few of Norm’s jokes? He doesn’t get the irony it seems.
I thought I’d seen every Norm video out there. I love finding ones I haven’t! I’ve been way too addicted to watching Norm videos every night to unwind. Still so missed.
Norm was buying online in 1999? Holy Lord
Along with the rest of the world
@@fhowland lol not really man
@@fhowland haha whata dummy
On the computer
@@AyAy008 on the link
MacDonald with Conan---delightful. MacDonald with Letterman---priceless. MacDonald with Leno---buzzkill.
those damn dimples.
😍😍😍
I like Norm more than he likes me.
Leno really did his best to suck the life out of Norm's humor.
Yeah, what a subject-changing buzz killer he was. Norm kept missing his drawn out punchlines. So much better with Conan.
Nah, he's a good man
Norm's two other Leno appearances are killer. Leno doesn't vibe with Norm like Dave or Conan but he's not bad. Kind of gets a bad rap.
Actually it seems like Leno interjected less than both Conan and Letterman. Both obv had better chemistry with Norm, but Leno was fine. Everyone just loves to rag on Jay.
😂😂😂❤🙏😩🇨🇦
His phenomenal charm doesn't even require great jokes.
This is the the exact visual transition period between young Norm and grandpa Norm
Think that's around '11.
Leno…….no clue what to do with a real comic genius🤣
This was 2 days before my 4 birthday. I’ll b 26 this year. 😭
Long Live Norm Macdonald. 🤲🏼🌹🤲🏼
A certified *Jay* comic. 🤦🏻♂️🤣
I can’t tell who’s worse; Jay Leno or his studio audience.
Wow Jay sure is an expert on ruining jokes
Classic Norm micro-troll= "Huh?" @0:40
Jays got no chemistry with the goat
I'm not sure if Jay's paying attention or what. Like, I don't think he got the "Human Leg" joke at first, and then when he DOES get it, why does he try and ruin it? "Oh yeah I suppose so maybe depending on the size" LET THE JOKE BREATHE!
Seriously. So painful to watch, you can feel the awkwardness.
Miss you Norm! RIP!
He is adorable
every Jay Leno clip I've ever seen would be greatly improved by removing Jay Leno
When he brought up pigeons I was reminded how he ended up doing voice-over work for a talking pigeon.
NORM!!! RIP to a unique comedian
Oh man, I laughed for about 50 seconds straight starting around the 8:00 mark
There's a doghouse in Norm's bunker.
Jay Leno "What do you want for Christmas?".
Then proceeds to completely forget his own question : )
Man I miss this guy but the most amazing thing I take away from this clip is that in 1999 there was a Republican mayor of NYC and a Republican Governor of NYS! Man how things have changed over the past 20 years.
Oh wow that is so amazing
Yes, every failed city is run by the left.
@@pmbbmp now that’s funny!
Failed so much their taxes to the federal government subsidize the welfare mooching red states.
@@pastohh California receives the most federal aid.
As phenomenal as a stand-up as Leno is, as a host, he was terrified and had absolutely no idea what to do with Norm.
R.I.P Norm❤
Normy, Normy, Normy..... I tell'ya Normy!!.. "because the light was on", the light Normy, the light, you know, i mean you, you the light, Normy..... RIP, :"-/
Leno jumped in before his homeless man punchline 😔

Comedy in human form 😂🙌👑
Jay was an abismal host even by today's standards, but I find it endearing that Norm always spoke highly of him as a comedian.
A lot of people (millions) disagree with you about the quality of Jay's hosting.
@@tradewins Jay was a God-awful talk show host
@@SafelandingRecords matter of opinion
@@tradewins No, Jay sucked pretty bad.
@@georgeorwell126 No, he was actually quite good. Hence #1 forever.
Not that he needs to but Leno ads absolutely donuts in comparison to Conan and letterman and even Kimmel lol
It almost seems intentional.
Give em Cigarettes.. LOL..
Wish I could go back in time to 10 minutes ago so I could watch that for the first time again
"I'm not Norm" you have your mission now get to it.
He was a good guy
Think i know why ive never seen this norm late night appearence before! because jay leno dead pans all of norms bits that even the crowd dont know what to do lol
He didn't let Norm finish his story about the bum he took to the restaurant.
I think he was finished.
@@zapkvr nah just incomplete
He dragged it out on letterman . Dave gave him way more than he should’ve and then just said, let’s move on Norm 😂
Norm loved to piss off the snowflakes with political incorrectness. That’s probably all jay is thinking, oh no im gonna go down with him
One of the coins was black.
Dot.. Emily.. E-bay..the computer, the computer..
Gosh I love Norm but I hate Jay
Jay was and is an unfunny hack!
At least Kevin got the humour
Right?? 😂
The fact that the audience and comment section completely doesn’t get the “it’s only 9 feet punchline” is just wild to me 😂
It’s very rare to hear Jay genuinely laugh at one of his guests. Here you can hear him squealing which I surmise is his honest laugh on accounta I never heard tell of him squealing like that.
Jay just can’t compare to that old chunk of coal
You were always a Diamond to me
Miss ya bud….
this homeless bum bit is my favorite ever
Hmmmmm…Does anyone know if he stole the stocking stuffer joke from Mitch or the other way around? I guess it’s possible they both thought of the same joke being that they are legends in comedy
Norm probably got it from Mitch. Norm kinda took jokes here and there from other comedians
I haven't heard that name in a world. Robin Leach was on The Nutt House
Fuckn epic
lol Ben Johnson, most people in the US have no idea who that is... I think Norm knew that, bit of an extra laugh there for me
he buried lots of gems like that in his jokes
That was funny.
You didn't include the fastest entrance anyone's ever made
3:18
What is happening here? Jay says "what do you want for Christmas" then back tracks and says he never said it. Then he gives the producers a weird look after Norm says it (which obv makes Norm say it again lol)
Was this when they were trying to force "holidays" on everyone?
What's with the song at the beginning? Wasn't that the same song as when Norm came out on the view around the same time? Was ska that big?
Norm wasn't at his best here. Maybe if Leno hadn't been such a drip things would have gone better.
Norm did great, Leno was a brick wall.
Good advise 3:01
Norm was a genius
Hey, thanks Jay, but, I got a father…
Check out my collection of Norm Macdonald stand up if you feel like it.
is it just me or is he slightly touching on Rockefeller conspiracies and drinking blood conspiracies??? 😂
DVD player lol
Leno is so desperate to be safe that he just sucked the life from every bit.
Leno thinks Norm is on the show to spruik his new show. But Norms on there to fuck with Leno.
0:40 Hah!?
507
And some of the coins were black.
I miss Norm MacDonald
Leno gave Norm MacDonald room to breathe in this segment
This was a lovely exchange
Leno and Norm MacDonald gelled well together
Triple-jabbed Gilbert Gottfried, who died of a “heart condition,” is another comedian I miss much
But Norm MacDonald is the best
Who is as funny as Norm MacDonald and alive today?‽
I will pray for America. Please pray for me. God Bless you.
Did he become homeless because he’s a bum, or become a bum because he’s homeless?
Jay Leno is embarassingly unfunny in comparison.
Why are you comparing the two of them? They're there in different roles. It's a lot easier to be funny when you have prepared material and you're just there for a few minutes. It's not so easy when you have to ad lib everything in response to what a guest says.
It’s not his job to be funny he’s supposed to be the straight man for the guest to play off of
@@fhowland Jay was horrible at that too.
@@tradewins If you think Norm cannot constantly ad lib be be HILARIOUS, you obviously have not watched Norm much.
@@georgeorwell126 I've watched many hours of Norm. I was talking about Jay ad libbing, not Norm. Duh!
I like how Leno slowly shuts Norm down. Ha ha
9:00 adrenochrome
More like blood transfusions, which is actually a thing. Look up "blood boys"
Leno is the worst host I've ever seen. Even fallon is better
1000% agree.
Fallon sucks too.
Jay was just terrible, easily the luckiest sob to get into the entertainment industry. The least deserving of the bunch.
Norm was off that night, but, hey!, let’s blame Leno!
I dont think Norm was off. Seemed his usual self
Hey I thought of the perfect stocking stuffer. A human leg.
Perfect joke.
