We've got something to look forward to.

Norm: The Tale of Norm Macdonald​

While there is a Norm Macdonald biography that is prepared to go in-depth about the stand-up comedian and actor, Judd Apatow’s documentary on the former Saturday Night Live star is scheduled to hit Netflix this fall. According to Variety, Apatow’s film, Norm: The Tale of Norm Macdonald, will be streaming on October 16. The documentary will be looking at Macdonald’s life intimately, as it is composed of archival footage, personal photos and rare home videos. Apatow had even solicited “unique photos and videos of Norm” from fans on Instagram last year. The documentary is produced by Apatow, Amanda Rohlke and Ross M. Dinerstein. EPs are Josh Church, Marc Gurvitz, Jon Liebman, Zoe Rogovin, Mark McCune and Ross Girard.

According to the logline, the doc will chronicle “his rise as the deadpan anchor of Weekend Update to his enduring legacy as a comedian’s comedian — a master of the absurd, the dry, and the unexpected.”

Norm was at his best when he channeled Andy Kaufman and tried to see how much he could get away with, like in this classic clip from The Tonight Show. Norm’s story about his cat having a heart attack starts around the 3:45 mark.

He's just tellin' the truth!

And of course Norm’s epic firebombing of Conan’s interview with Courtney Thorne-Smith:
