Norm MacDonald

Watch this clip, it's utter comedic genius.

Norm MacDonald said that the perfect joke would be where the setup and punchline are identical. The closest he ever got was, "Lyle Lovett and Julia Roberts are getting a divorce. Julia Roberts said that the turning point in their marriage was when she realized that she was Julia Roberts and that she was married to Lyle Lovett."

Norm on Comedians in Cars is one of the best. I watch that one often.

Yes.. I think by far the best episode…. Spent another hour watching his interviews on late night programs.

Halyna Hutchins

This story is horrifying. It’s something that just shouldn’t ever happen. Feel bad for the family of Hutchins and for the director who is in critical condition, and for Baldwin who will no doubt have a heavy emotional burden to deal with.

The last time this happened with Michael Massee shooting Brandon Lee he had a very hard time getting over it. Over 10 years later and he still had nightmares about it.

What a tragic and completely avoidable situation.

Dean Stockwell is dead, and I am very sad.
