Norm MacDonald is one of the funniest people on the planet. Despite having famous friends (Adam Sandler) and posessing one of the quickest and sharpest wits in Hollywood, he has never risen to become the successful actor he should have been. Why is that? Well, it could be because he's just too...awkward. He has a unique look, which in Hollywood means "not pretty enough to be the lead" and his humor is very hit or miss to the mainstream audience. If you don't believe me, check out any clips you can find of his run as Weekend Update anchor on SNL. Sometimes, people laughed and other times he had them scratching their heads, almost like Dennis Miller but actually funny.
There was a time, however brief, where Norm did almost break into the mainstream. It was a film that he helped write and he starred in and was the perfect showcase for his comedic gifts. This edition of Watch This!, I bring you one of the most underrated comedies to ever exist, the 1998 film Dirty Work. Now unfortunately, I couldn't find a trailer online, so here's just a random clip! ROLL THE RANDOM CLIP I SAYS!
