Synopsis

Norm Henderson was once a fairly well-known -- but not particularly good -- professional hockey player. Norm's penchant for gambling and not paying taxes resulted in his permanent expulsion from the game. Instead of jail, he was sentenced to community service as a social worker, where his fresh perspective in the field and lack of patience for office red tape don't always jibe well with his co-workers.

Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Leoni Haney Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

Catherine_Grace_Zeh "THE NORM SHOW," in my opinion, is an absolute ABC classic! I haven't seen every episode, but I still enjoyed it. It's hard to say which episode was my favorite. However, I think it was always funny when a mishap occurred. I always laughed at that. In addition, I really loved the theme song. Despite the fact that it was a short-lived series, it was nice that all of the main characters had stayed with the show throughout its entire run. It seems that no one stays with a show throughout its entire run. Everyone always gave a good performance, the production design was spectacular, the costumes were well-designed, and the writing was always very strong. In conclusion, I hope someone brings it back on the air for fans of the show to see.
lloyd219 I first saw Norm several months ago and was instantly hooked. This guy is genuinely FUNNY!!! His dry wit breaks me up and I love the hard edge to his character. It's also good to see that Willy Tanner is no longer playing second banana to a stuffed alien aka Alf and has 'risen' through the ranks in social security to now be boss. (talk about type casting) Like all quality sitcoms Norm has a strong ensemble of performers. It's so good I'm afraid it may well be axed before it gets to fully spread it's wings. Hope I'm wrong. Mind you I'm sure it wouldn't have even got past pilot stage in Australia. Look what they've done to Frasier here, dumped it in summer because it doesn't rate. Go figure. Norm's now showing here in prime time. The inventor of the VCR deserves a medal.My Vote 10 out of 10
4-Kane I've been watching "Norm" since its debut in 1999, and haven't stopped watching it. I think it's one of the most underrated shows, and one of the funniest shows (if not THE funniest show) on the air.One of my favorite episodes is the one where Danny's father dies, and Danny discovers that his dad was gay. Another hilarious one is where Danny gets a toupee. These episodes prove that "Norm" IS funny.The cast is clever, consisting of supporting actors/actresses who were in other series: Max Wright ("ALF"), Faith Ford ("Murphy Brown"), Laurie Metcalf ("Roseanne"), and Ian Gomez ("Drew Carey Show" and "Felicity") to name a few.Leaving "Saturday Night Live" to do "Norm" was a smart move for Norm MacDonald. And there is little that I would like better than to see this series obtain longevity. It deserves a good, long run. And I would honestly like to see "Norm" stay on the air for at least five or six years.
BigErn The Norm Show is the best show on television. I had stopped watching TV a year ago and when i heard Norm was coming to the little screen, I had to go back. It's more hilarious than I ever imagined and I'm glad others do too -- I thought it would get canceled, just by virtue of it being Norm and all. Anyway, I'm glad he's doing well and all I have to say is Viva La Norm!!Cheers,Jon
