    I’m glad she spoke up. There was a distance he kept that made me think he probably had a lot about him I wouldn’t have liked personally. I feel and felt the same about Seinfeld, Letterman, Chappelle and even pre-scandal Louis CK. I could only judge them on the standard of being funny and they are that.

    You have to start adding one more doctor each time to keep things fresh.

    Comedians are generally dark, very dark people. The stuff they present is that bare tip of the huge, depressive iceberg from which their demons scream about airplane food and Karens.

    I feel sad for those women.

    Eh, I don't think that's much of a "revelation" - I think it was common knowledge. They also tried to do it when Conan took over "The Tonight Show." It also seems kind of clear that Leno followed that directive, even though he and Norm both liked each other. It's pretty noticeable that all the clips of Norm killing are on Conan, Letterman and not Leno.

    SNL isn't new for another two weeks, but classy memorial card for Norm aired exactly where it should have, after Weekend Update.
