About 2 nights ago, Jim Norton did this show called "New Joke City" some comedy show that airs on a Cablevision channel on Long Island.

Norton did a great job, but why the fuck would he do a gig hosted by Robert Klein? Robert Klein is not funny and should die.

Doesn't Norton look like an under-nourished Uncle Fester with AIDS?

He probably can't light a bulb by simply putting it in his mouth...
But he could infest Rick's bed with his boxer shorts

It was very weird to not here Norton talking about touching children, puddles of AIDS, or telling people to die a horrible death. But he did pretty well considering he do his off-color stuff.

I'm not surprised. Norton has made a reputation of being dirty but he has shown on the show that he is very witty and quick on his feet.
Though I'll be honest, I found it weird that he and Mario Cantone shared the same taste in cinema.

Norton was funny but it sucks to hear him censor
himself for television and that Klein fart bag who reads
his jokes off a teleprompter.

Robert Klein or not, it's a good career move.

TV is TV.

I'm sure Norton's manager would want him to do a Show on the Lifetime Channel hosted by a decomposing Peggy Cass if she could book him...

New Joke City is also on Metrochannel

I definetly think doing ANY television at all is a good career move. I just figured Norton could do better than New Joke City, which, as you said, is on MetroChannel at about 1 a.m. on Long Island.

Enough said. Norton is quick and witty with his comebacks. That guy kills me. When he told Marion that he wishes her hair was red from hear bleeding out of it. NICE:)
