Jun 5, 2022This special is an excellent Bookend to Norm's life with a group of comedians talking about his legacy and his very distinct comedic style. Norm was a legend in his time.

Beyond being a technically magnificent set, Nothing Special is a deeply profound and humane hour of comedy.

On one side, there’s the heaviness of Macdonald’s death and his memory. On the other side is the special itself, which is not quite ephemeral, but it’s close. It’s thin. Some portions are striking and fun, some feel like incomplete approaches to an idea that’s not fully there yet, some are simply overworn premises without enough oomph to distinguish them. ... The indistinctness of Nothing Special does create an opportunity to remember him. Like the comedians gathered at the end, it’s an invitation.

Macdonald managed to be somehow timeless, outdated, and very much of his time, all at the same time.
