Weeks after the first airing of The Comedy Central Roast of Bob Saget, many are still talking about Norm Macdonald's performance. People are fiercely debating whether his set was hilarious or very hilarious. It's pretty much started a second US civil war. Ken Burns is doing a 14-hour mini-series about it for PBS. With that in mind, we've got an exclusive interview Norm did with Chris Hardwick immediately after the Roast. It's great.

Brad,
Fuck you for trying to sound smart.
It didn't work.
I'm a little surprised so many people didn't get this performance. This is not a Marcel Duchamp conceptual art piece. Doing a terrible performance on purpose is pretty radical and very confrontational, but it's not rocket science. To not get it is to not get why things are funny.
brad,
you're a moron
I gotta admit I was a bit perplexed while watching it. I got it to an extent and his parodical jokes definitely made me laugh, but I really feel there's a group of pretentious people that are making too big of a deal of it, trying to say that we don't "get" it, though what we supposedly don't get is partially fabricated to make them look better while they tell us how bad we don't get it. Or, to quote a once awesome Billie Joe, "maybe I'm just stoned."
Norm is great. I heard they had cigar rollers at this event.
Norm Macdonald craps bigger than Chris Hardwick.
