Norm was the funniest Weekend Update anchor ever. One of my favorite bits was one time he reported about Michael Jackson being in the hospital for exhaustion or something, and how he had two gigantic posters of a young Shirley Temple put in his hospital room.

Norm said "But don't get the wrong idea! Michael is still a homosexual pedophile."

Another time, he was reporting the 'best jobs' according to some industry survey -- stuff like systems analyst & college administrator, or what have you, then he revealed the worst job on the list: "Crack whore." The next year he did the same bit again, saying that a new job had displaced crack whore from the 'worst job' designation: "Assistant crack whore."

"O.J. Simpson did not spend Mothers Day with his children. When asked about it he replied,

'Duh! Because I killed their mother!' "

Norm was the funniest Weekend Update anchor ever.

Sloth,
the examples you cited makes me feel bad about not watching SNL (for the Weekend
Update) more during Norm's tenure.

Got to admit my prejudice for best Weekend Update has been a tie between
Dennis Miller and the current duo.
LOL! Now I'm really confused about picking the best!
