Norm MacDonald is getting his own show, yay!

Norm MacDonald is getting his own show on Comedy Central, and if you're like me, then you're a below average speller. But that's neither here nor there. What's really important is that Norm's going to be back where he belongs, hosting a "fake news" show. Comedy Central is my favorite source for "fake news", with shows like The Daily Show and The Colbert Report (the addition of the Onion's SportsDome is nice as well), so I can't wait for Norm to join up too.

His new show is going to be called Sports Show with Norm MacDonald (I like the creativity on the title). It may sound like it might be too close to SportsDome, but I think that it'll separate itself from SportsDome given that Sports Show will be talking about actual games, where SportsDome is from the Onion and therefore completely made up. To get you primed for Norm's new show, please check out how hilarious this man is when talking about sports (this is the ESPY Awards monologue).



To be fair to the clip, this is really a lot funnier if you know a lot about the sports scene in 1998.
