Same but then I realised I've seen him in tons of stuff. Little Chubby in My Name is Earl and the brother of the scrubs Janitor in The Middle. Quote

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted September 14, 2018 Paid Members Posted September 14, 2018 Norm is genuinely the best thing on anything he appears in. Yet when he got his own sitcom and willingly phoned it in. It was alright, but it wasnt anything you'd recommend to someone who has little time on their hands. Its like he doesnt want nice things to happen to him. Quote
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted September 14, 2018 Paid Members Posted September 14, 2018 He's the funniest person ever, but Ian summed it up. His proper telly and film work has always been hijacked by the higher ups. Whether that be getting sacked from SNL for making too many OJ jokes, Dirty Work going from an R-rated comedy to your middling comedy because the studio cut most of the jokes, or the Norm Show getting butchered by the network (Norm saying "Ok, just get me my syndicate money"). He's a little like Rickles, in that his best representation of his humour is just him being himself. Norm isn't for everybody, but if you get him then you are destined for so many laughs. Quote

I tried watching his standup that's on Netflix, I thought it was awful and gave up after about 10 minutes. But he was good in The Middle. So the jury's out on him to be honest.

Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted October 5, 2018 Paid Members Posted October 5, 2018 Bryan Singer is also pretending it never happened, the Queen film he got fired from for being a rapist isn't even out yet but that's not stopping him from trying to secure 10 million to direct Rex Sonja. The cockiness is horrific. http://www.darkhorizons.com/bryan-singer-gets-major-red-sonja-payday/ Quote
Mr_Danger Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 Even without the pedoness that film doesn't interest me. Just like the Conan remakes. I wonder what sort of impact the #metoo/celeb scandals will have on getting more women involved in major blockbusters. Surely now would be a great time to employ a woman given that 99% of people accused/guilty of these allegations are men. Quote
Keith Houchen Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 Gazza has a Lovely Pillows moment. Football legend Paul Gascoigne has been charged with sexually assaulting a woman on a train from York to Durham. The former England midfielder was arrested at Durham station on 20 August. British Transport Police said the 51-year-old has now been charged with one count of sexual assault by touching and will appear at Newton Aycliffe Magistrates' Court on 11 December. Gazza shot to international fame during the 1990 World Cup. After leaving his hometown club Newcastle United in 1988, he enjoyed success at Tottenham Hotspur, Lazio and Rangers. A spokeswoman for British Transport Police said: "Paul Gascoigne... was charged via postal requisition with one count of sexual assault by touching, contrary to Section 3 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003. "The charge relates to an incident on board a train on 20 August this year." Quote
