Season 1 Review: I’ve watched four episodes, and every one of them is hugely entertaining and frequently surprising. Read full review

Season 1 Review: “Love” seems like a strong word, but there’s a lot to enjoy here. Norm Macdonald Has a Show is a very meticulous mess, built with the opposite of frills. Read full review

Season 1 Review: For fans of Macdonald’s comedy, this will feel right in his wheelhouse. But it’s hard to get away from the sense that Macdonald doesn’t particularly care, and that he is its only intended audience. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Fonda’s guest appearance is head-and-shoulders the best of the four I’ve seen. In fact, Episode 1, with David Spade featured, is so excruciatingly bad that you’re better off skipping it entirely. ... If you’re a Norm Macdonald fanatic, and there likely aren’t very many of those, it’s best to watch this show while you still can. Read full review

Season 1 Review: It’s incredibly frustrating to watch a comic once defined by his sharp commentary wander so aimlessly through this show just because he can. Even if the question of how Macdonald got this show is easily answered, the question of why anyone outside he and his diehards fans should bother with it never is. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Norm Macdonald Has a Show, his new Netflix series, is pretty terrible. It's labor-intensive to get through. In the moments when it's disastrously bad, you wonder if that's the joke; given that Macdonald is notoriously adherent to anti-jokes and anti-stories as a conceit, it's at least a possibility. But no. ... Norm Macdonald Has a Show is a painful thing to watch. Read full review

Norm is contrasted so differently from every guest he has on, even people he knows well. I'm convinced that he books guests with stern, icy or serious reputations mostly because he wants the challenge of making them smile. And once they do, you can see who they really are. I'm not sure howNorm is contrasted so differently from every guest he has on, even people he knows well. I'm convinced that he books guests with stern, icy or serious reputations mostly because he wants the challenge of making them smile. And once they do, you can see who they really are. I'm not sure how anyone dislikes this man but if you do, you have to admit, Norm revels in delight not the usual cynicism. Norm MacDonald has a show is a little bit tighter and more produced than his original video podcast that spawned this version. He tends to keep things moving instead of meandering or experimenting with sketches (which I adored about the original). But its still pure Norm. Totally unpretentious.… Expand
