Well put, his delivery is so damn good also, a totally unique comic. His style really benefits from watching more of his stuff, once you get into Norm's groove he's one of the best ever.

Ah man Norm is so good even after all these years you can listen to this stuff again and again and it's as funny as the first time... truly a genius🥹

@johntayer You're not giving Leno enough credit. They're both stellar standups. Trust me. He gets Norm. I know it's easy to crap on Leno because of his history, but he's highly respected among comedians as one of the best standups in history.

It is an undisputed scientific fact that anytime Norm is present on the set of a talk show, the show officially belongs to him. Just look at how desperately any talk show host tries to keep control of his own show when he's on.

How is Leno not cracking up at some of this stuff. You watch Norm on Conan, Kimmel, and Letterman and those guys are cracking up and going back and forth with Norm

At 6:58, Norm does the "are you familiar with discs? I'll explain them to you" joke. He barely explains it and that IS the joke. Small chuckles from the audience. Then Jay Leno takes Norm's same joke and explains it. He gets a bigger reaction. To me, Norm does comedy like a sentence without punctuation, and simpler comics/audiences don't understand it unless someone punctuates it. When the sentence is complete, the joke is diminished and it's the same as any other lame joke.

The thing about Leno is that he too often fails to recognize genius or true craft. He never has any kind of admiration for his guests whatsoever.

Norm is one of my favorite comedians of all time, but this Leno criticism is lame and boring. It's also misguided. Leno is one of the greats of standup. If you think otherwise, you're not up on your history. Most great comedians acknowledge he was one of the all-time great standups.
