It was a dream come true getting to write for Norm Macdonald. He is, was, and will always be my favorite Weekend Update anchor. RIP you old chunk of coal!
I was selected out of over 200 writing submissions to work on Sports Show with Norm Macdonald. I got to work with comedy writing legends like Steve O'Donnell, Jeff Martin, and Frank Sebastiano. I wrote the first joke he ever said on the show:
"Cameron Diaz is developing a movie that would take place in the world of Major League Baseball and she wants her boyfriend Alex Rodriguez to star in it. You can read my review for the film in Norm Macdonald’s Suicide Note."
Norm's favorite joke of mine was from a TBS Pilot we did:
"The series finale of Jersey Shore is airing this week on MTV, I hope it's like the end of "Lost" where you find out they're all dead."
I can send more jokes upon request!
Ben Hoffman (aka Wheeler Walker Jr.) is a misunderstood genius! The Ben Show was a blast. I pitched an idea called "The Grammer Nazi" where I dressed up like a Nazi and quizzed people on Kelsey Grammer trivia. The show was abruptly cancelled after the first season for being "too weird."
