Norm as Burt Reynolds is incredible
The absolute best
I think Burt Reynolds is the ONLY character Norm can do that isn't just Norm
Harrison McKinney. He friggen nailed it!!!
His Quentin Tarantino is on point.
Norm wrote this skit literally to do the impression.
It’s crazy to see the first episode and how it progressed into easier and easier clues and Sean being more and more raunchy about Trebek’s mom.
I just recently saw the later ones and compared to those, this one seems very tame and dare I say normal.
"Well Trebek, what is the difference between you and a Mallard with a cold? One is a sick Duck. I can't remember how the rest of it goes but your mother is a WH!"
Exactly what I was thinking
Yeah, he wasn’t even the least bit raunchy here. I had never seen the very first one before.
My favorite is still
"I don't remember how it ends but your mother's a whore."
That has me wheezing every time. 🤣
So sad to read Norm McDonald passed away. Always loved him in these skits. RIP Norm.
Here for same
And sean Connery
And alex trebek
He did a great burt.
Cancel culture couldn't touch him but fuck you cancer taking people's laughter
Norm was the one who originally came up with the idea to parody Celebrity Jeopardy, without him we wouldn't have one of the funniest reoccurring sketches on SNL. RIP, Turd Ferguson!
It's my favorite skit. I didn't know he wrote the original ones. Sean connery wordplay is timeless.
Actually Eugene levy came up with the original parody years earlier and Norm asked for his permission before doing it on SNL I remember reading it somewhere
@@hardikjani6127 He mentioned it in an interview as well. The original was called "Half Wits" and some skits are on youtube.
Notice how Sean Connery is just stupid in the first ones... whoever came up with the antagonistic relationship between Sean Connery and Alex Trebek is a genius!!!
From what I recall, he just wanted any sketch to show off his Burt Reynolds impression.
That's the end of the Celebrity Jeopardy heaven episode. RIP Turd Ferguson.
It still might be possible with Alex and Sean.
@@bobkolterjahn4266 Not without Burt. Those three are the only recurring celebrities, unless you count the Cosby joke in the 40th anniversary episode.
I love how when the cannonball run question came up, jerry Lewis and Sean Connery both looked at Burt Reynolds.
and burt is totally oblivious to that
Wouldnt surprise me if the script had a line for norm but he decided to say nothing for comic effect
No shit, we saw.
@@miloesalazar I didn’t my screen is broken I had to listen
Martin Short just disappears into the Jerry Lewis character. Brilliant.
NORM: "What is Jaws?"
That's the moment the audience realized that the joke was going to be how stupid celebrities are.
That was also the moment Alex realized he was in for a rough time.
All except Connery. Who is smart but instead just fucks with Trebek.
And then Jerry saying "CANNONBALLGVCCFGYTFREDSDCVBHGTREDVHGTRESFDMHVGBNMNJBHGCFDFGHBJNBHG"
"Oh boy, it's THAT kind of comedy, isn't it!"
-No doubt one of the audience members.
Wow, Sean Connery actually misread something without making it filthy.
masternachos And Swords and Sabre are technically “S” Words
majooismajor the semen sword
But, he quickly got dirty in the next Jeopardy Skits.
BUCK FUTTER!!
remember this was connerys first appereance on celebrity jeopardy so he was quite unfamiliar with the game show format
This is the first episode of Celebrity Jeopardy ever. So awesome!
Oh shit it's you
You can tell because the questions are harder
@@ronpaulssecretary b
You can also tell because Sean Connery is actually civil to Trebek.
@@CBiggs-vz9be Also Potent Potables isn't first.
"Swords for 48 thousand".such genius writing
Back when she show HAD genius writing.
SNL hasn't been funny in 20 years :(
@@faridmk3707 occasionally it is but yes it has been going downhill
RIP Alex Trebec, Sean Connery, Burt Reynolds, and Jerry Lewis. This sketch is not only that old, but also that legendary.
Add Norm MacDonald to the list.
Jesus christ they’re ALL dead?
The sketch ISN'T even that old...
@@davelowets This sketch is over 20 plus years old. It was only uploaded to CZcams in 2009. So yes, it is old.
Wait...Alex Trebek died?
No one, not even Burt Reynolds, did a better Burt Reynolds than Norm MacDonald. Pure comic genius. RIP and thank you for sharing your talent.
I liked Norm enough, but good grief.....
I agree with everything you wrote. And if I wanted to see a video with Burt, I would choose watching Norm imitate Burt. Much more interesting and funny.
Norm pretty much reprised his Burt Reynolds character as Little Chubby on My Name is Earl, where his character’s father - Big Chubby - was actually played by Burt Reynolds himself
@@WilliamsDad1989 It’s been a month since you added your unsolicited opinion. For the life of me, I still can’t figure out how your remark added any positive value to the conversation.
@@karadicecco8316 Well, I'm sorry that my comment consumed 30 days of your life. Merely said that I liked Norm enough, but as for his BR impersonation being great, I said and say, good grief. It's Norm being Norm with a big hat and fake moustache. And, my comment can't really be unsolicited if the top of the page says "Add a public comment" . I'm kind of being asked to comment. Otherwise, your comment is just as unsolicited. Obviously, you just love Norm, I only liked him.
unbelievable how perfect Burt is played by Norm. Wow!
Anytime it's Norm and Hammond playing Connery, whoever does the third impression doesn't stand a chance.
Norm is spot on
I actually wondered for a moment if it might not be Burt in a black wig!!!
Burt Reynolds was a huge fan of it and wanted to do this sketch where he knocked out norm and then his answers would be even dumber than norms
Haiku Automation , he even looks like him.
"unfortunately, because of your scores, money will be taken away from charity"
“The hell I’m going to pay you a bloody $800!”- Sir Sean Connery
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💀
" I'll play Swords for $48.000 " best line in the skit.
RIP Turd Ferguson
Paul B. 1:44 R.I.P. headphone users
What does this mean btw?
@@Paulbuslon In one episode of SNL's Celebrity Jeopardy, Burt insists on being called by the name "Turd Ferguson" because he found the name funny "because it has 'turd' in it."
Interesting, thanks
It's probably pre turd ferguson
I heard Norm on Stern today and he said one thing he finds funny about his Burt character is how all the other characters are the modern day version, Burt is 70's Burt. Lorne Michaels wanted to do the Burt Reynolds from Boogie Nights but Norm insisted on 70's Burt. RIP Bandit
Maybe
But Sean Connery is eternal
good choice on lornes part
70s Burt was the best Burt.
I knew Reynolds from FSU when I was a PE major. He wasn't considered a handsome guy on campus; no heads were turned as he walked by (the moustache was the Hollywood make-over),. and that wise-guy chopped patter was a media thing he developed. He wasn't a bright guy; I know I was in two of his classes!
@@tommacdonald7990money and fame is what makes females swoon 😂
“Ah hell, let’s go “Swords” for $48,000...” may be the most underrated line in SNL history. 😂
That's S Words!
^^ When I make a bet at +1000 or higher!
@@BPDMF2024 "It began with a bloody 'S'!"
Norm just never fails to steal the show in these sketches. A funny guy.
Martin brought his A game.

WE'RE NOT DOING SWORDS!!
@@briandonegan8480 Is it... saber?
Years later, "gimme Andre the giant for 10000"
RIP Norm Macdonald. A very underrated comedy legend. Heaven just got a lot funnier.
Arguably a top 5 comedian of all time
@@Burnout1997 absolutely agree.
Or so the Germans would have us believe.
Lol, my favorite line from Weekend Update was when a police dog did something and he said “or do the German shepherds will have us believe” with their picture up.
Every person in this skit (that they are impersonating) is passed now, plus norm! Sad…
@@cortneyrens Who is to blame for all of this sadness? You guessed it: Frank Stallone.
Darrell Hammond hadn't quite perfected his Connery-venom yet. Soon he would obliterate Ferrell-Trebek in every installment
He also grows more hair as we progress through the skits...
Yeah, he didn't make any cracks about Alex's mother in this one.
His future anger is from the unfairness of paying the charity.
The answers weren’t quite as obvious as later ones.
@@ownpetard8379 you just made my day "Trebek you tricky bastard, your mother and I will be having a talk with you later about this unjust charges"
Such an innocent beginning
+Marco Schaub I was just thinking that. After watching the later ones, this is so much less insane.
TURD FERGUSON!!
Yeah the category including words that start with s was really reassuring.
Celebrity jeopardy
Subtle humor is the best. The blank spaces an audience fills in their mind will always be funnier than a scripted joke, it's more personal.
That was funny having Burt not remember he was in Cannonball Run.
Would have been even funnier if Burt gave the answer, Smokey and the Bandit
Hell I don't know Shakespeare lol
Best skit ever....... .
Now he does not remember anything
Mike 201 or if he could’ve said boogie nights
"Let's go nuts... swords for 48,000" literally had me crying
Will is funnier playing serious characters then when he is a funny guy.
He wasn't funny then and he isn't funny now. He's a brillo headed doofus.
no
@@davejung1031 you really are kind of stupid aren't you?
He's not a funny guy, on his own. Playing a small list of characters in short skits, like Harry Cary, he was....humorous, but never really very funny. Kevin Hart has the same issue, but he can't even imitate ANYBODY!
@@dme1016 You have no idea what you're talking about. Will Ferrell is as funny as any comedic actor ever. You're right about Kevin Hart, though.
Potent potables is in every skit 😂
mac1bc What the hell are potent potables
@@BrianSmith-yq7ys it's an actual Jeopardy category related to food
mac1bc--Ikr. I think the writers just like hearing Ferrell pronounce those words.
Brian Bunce--Alcoholic beverages pretty much.
Mike Walsh--Actually it's alcoholic beverages.
Burt Reynolds is the best thing about these sketches. He's so smug
You’re right, funny as hell...
RIP to all visibly featured in this scene. Jerry Lewis (1926 - 2017), Burt Reynolds (1936 - 2018), Sean Connery (1930 - 2020), and Alex Trebek (1940 - 2020)
EDIT: And now, on September 14th, 2021, Norm Macdonald has also passed away. May he bring laughs forever, and he rest in peace.
Dude, Johnny Gilbert is still alive.
@@212Elevators Fair enough. All visibly featured in this scene.
Amen 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Sad
Wow, you’re right! And this is the first time Celebrity Jeopardy appeared on SNL
In their next season, Jeopardy had “S” Words as a category in the first round and Swords as a category in the same position in the second round.
Connery: "Pick swords."
Reynolds: "Yeah sure give me swords."
Trebek: "WE'RE NOT DOING SWORDS!"
Lon Tanner Swords it technically an “S” Word
@@pottytheparrot310 The hell you say!
What the hell let's go all out swords for $48000!
Sean Connery: and I took that personally.
This is how their feud started.
I think we all watched the same video
Because of your scores, money will be taken away from charity 😂
Let's be real. It's taken out anyways.
Norm and Darrell are the most underrated SNL members ever
RIP Norm MacDonald. The Celebrity Jeopardy skits were his idea, primarily so he could do his Burt Reynolds impression. (The idea was eventually to have the REAL Burt show up, kick Norm off, then take his place, but being even more irritating to Alex than Norm-as-Burt.) But then Norm got fired from SNL, and "Sean Connery" became the showcase. (All in all, it worked out fine, though there was something about good old Turd Ferguson that was missed in later installments.)
Well at least they got the Real Trebec to come on before he passed.
You and Mrs. Phillips seem to be fond of Knowledge. Was Jerry Lewis (Martin Short) fired or was he Hosting this Episode, of SNLADY!?
@@ihavefallenandicantreachmy2113 Martin Short was the host of the episode. (The episode in question was from 1996; Martin Short had been a cast member for the 1984-1985 season, but left at the end of the season, with the entire cast being replaced for the 1985-1986 season.)
From what I understand, if Norm hadn't been fired, Burt Reynolds might have popped in for one of the sketches.
Shame, cuz that would have been awesomely funny! I loved Burt and Norm! 😎
The hatred between Trebek and Connery began on this episode, I guess...
Hammond said he tried to do an ACCURATE impression in this one, and then just tried to be funny in subsequent episodes.... but the hate definitely started here.
The beginning of a truly legendary and wonderful feud.....
yes but Trebek was kinda rude since the very beginning. Connery just counterattacked and got out of hand ultimately. lol.
Later he found out that Trebek's mother was quite the gal.
Ha
Aw, I like how Sean Connery's future crotchetyness can be linked to a sort of early disagreement with paying out a fine
I think it was also because Connery said "Saber" and he's right - it IS an s word.
Scotsmen are notoriously chintzy.
aha...nah its kind of implied that connery just has a filthy mind
Norm Macdonald as Bert Reynolds, he absolutely tears it up during the filming of this skit.
It’s really sad and strange to think about how all the people portrayed here are all dead.
*I WILL NOT PAY THIS FINE I’VE INCURRED IT’S UNJUST!!!!*
*unjusht
I'm going to use this in court next week
Sabre it begun with a bloody s!
"I will not pay this fine i've incurred, its UNJUST!!"
😂😂😂😂
Jerry, Burt, Sean, Alex and Norm. We love and miss you!
Norm as burt is amazing.
Fun fact : watching this on my friends couch in 1997 for first time the moment Burt says "lets go nuts. Swords for 48 thousand", i literally pissed myself laughing
Lucky it wasn't your own couch.
@@davidmatthews3131 XD
Amazing how Will Ferrell can stay in character and keep his composure.
RIP everyone on screen
Jerry Lewis 1926-2017
Burt Reynolds 1936-2018
Sean Connery 1930-2020
Alex Trebek 1940-2020
SNL should get Will Ferrell, Norm Macdonald, Martin Short and Darrell Hammond to all come back and do one last "Celebrity Jeopardy: Heaven edition" skit.
Only at the end it turns out Trebek isn't in heaven.
Honestly that's genius
Or HE is, but his MOM is not haha
I think SNL banned Norm. Stupid move.
@@debraprince4511 wtf why?
Now that Norm's gone, it isn't happening. This sucks.
Sean Connery was nice to trebek at the beginning and then he got angry and maybe that's why he hates him now
It all started with the unjust fine
Of course it did, it was a total BS fine.
Dennis Halterman All because of Swords and Sabres
@Potty The Parrot. Trebek was being completely unreasonable on that. I question his sanity.
I noticed that too. We finally have the origin story lol. Although it seems like they originally were going to have Burt Reynolds be the antagonist and changed their mind in lieu of Sean Connery in future skits
"The hell if I'm going to pay you a bloody 800 dollarsh" LMFAO. RIP Turd Ferguson
Makes me sad norm is gone.such a legend, will be missed
The moment when all celebrities in the sketch are RIP.
SNL should make a skit of them all playing jeopardy in heaven.
Apart from Johnny Gilbert.
He plays a good Burt Reynolds.
+Impala 6789 Pulls off the hotness pretty well too! XD
KaneyoshiSouji Yeah, that pedostache is making him look hot.
He and Burt Reynolds acted as father and son in My Name Is Earl, and he acts exactly like this... Really funny
Wait a second, you're me!
Beyond
I like how this skit got more over the top over time. It's one of the best running skits in SNL history
Black jeopardy sucks
The great NORM MACDONALD as Burt Reynolds !!!!! Norm is just perfect in every way.
Martin Short, one of the most underated comedians of all time! One hilarious guy.
wrong
Absolutely. Clifford is still one of my favorite comedies.
Was only a little funny in 3 amigos.
I agree..insanely funny🤣
@@savagedick1462 You need to check him out playing Jiminy Glick interviewing celebrities.
Turd Ferguson should have won.
I hate it when I do that snl
He should've worn his oversized novelty hat, its bigger than a real one, its funny.
Turd Ferguson always wins
200th like!
Turd Ferguson did win. He won the the year I named my fantasy football team "Turd Ferguson." Lol
4:10 CANNONBALLENMAVENAYVEYYYYYYAYYYAH
You are legend!
Snl played this episode tonight and gave a nice farewell to Alex Trebek and Connery. So sad to see that all the people in the skit are gone unfortunately. RIP...
I'm rewatching this cause Norm, but I forgot how amazing Will Ferrell is in these
His level of torment is an underrated aspect in these skits. He's always so done with them lol.
I love how optimistic Alex Trebek seems here compared to later sketches.
4:36 Oh hell, let's go nuts, Swords for 48 thousands 😂 😂 😂
last night I decided to watch this because of Norm's perfect impression of Burt Reynolds. When I heard today that he had passed on from this life, it broke my heart. What an underrated and talented man. I rarely cry over celebrities but I feel Norm was so genuine. I will miss you, Sir.
I didn't think I could physically cry from the passing of a celebrity I never met. However, Norm proved me wrong. The world lost a bright spot.
RIP Norm McDonald . Best Burt Reynolds impression
I love that Alex is still spry and hopeful here and slowly loses his mind across the skits
What a classic. You'll be missed Norm RIP.
He was beautiful even after they tried to cancel him. RIP
"I'll take Swords for $48,000"
Norm McDonald was so hilarious as Burt Reynolds numerous time on this skit!
"Let's go nuts, swords for 48 000" hahaa awesome!
Andreas Elofsson “We’re not doing swords!”
I love these celebrity jeopardy skits. THey crack me up, something chronic.
Okay.
Josey Bojangles Iwas

Josey Bojangles its the first skit of many iconic moments between trobek and sean
Chronic btw
RIP Norm, your Burt Reynolds made me LMFAO! Tyvm!
Rewatching to laugh at Turd Ferguson Burt Reynolds Norm rest in peace you hilarious bastard
I feel like I've been sleeping on Martin Short's impression of Jerry Lewis. rip. so good.
Agreed! Surprised no one's talking about it.
I thought it sucked, but that is just my opinion.
I thought so too! Cringey but that’s Jerry sometimes 😂😂
I lost it when he screamed Ladies!
I can't believe nobody laughed at how Sean said "Jaws" I fucken cracked up!
Yeah ikr lol
Why can't you believe it? Jaws released in 1975, not 1977.
Is FUKEN a WORD?! Maybe it's German.
R.I.P Mr.Norman McDonald you'll be truly missed
I love that each celebrity jeopardy got crazier each sketch, this first one was pretty tame for Sean Connery 😂
And the 2 decade Rivalry of trebek vs connery begins with the crossing of "s"words! LOL
Alex had so much exuberance and optimism at the beginning of this never-ending train wreck.
I guess this sparked the downward spiral of Trebek's sanity and the antagonism of Sean Connery 😂😂
For a second I thought that was Burt playing Norm playing Burt!
Burt Reynolds will live on a little while longer through Norm MacDonald's impressions.
Absolutely classic. Hammond as Connery, Norm as Burt and Short as Jerry here are as hilarious as it gets.
Norm was so funny! These are classics that never get old. May he RIP.
Man Norm nailed that impression of Burt.
Norm is great as Burt!
He stole the show.
K2 Hbu in one episode actual burt reynolds is chubbys dad, norm is chubby jr.
Joe Smith i stole the show and i gave it to turd Ferguson
Norm as Burt is always hilarious and so is Darrell as Sean
Makes you think, does Norm play a good Burt or does Burt do a good Norm?
True comedy, lost a legend today. One of the few true comedians that spoke truth and wasn't afraid to speak his mind.
Weird how all of these Celebrities Sean Connery, Burt Reynolds, Jerry Lewis, AND NOW Alex Trebek are all gone now. :(
I mean, this was 24 years ago all featuring celebrities most famous in the 60s and 70s
@@christiansenator So, that's how that shit works..
weird how the real alex and sean died so close together
Wow. Every character being played has passed away on this show. And now, Mr Norm has left us as well. You may rest now buddy.
Was just thinking that! There’s another celebrity jeopardy skit where only French Stewart is alive, may god be with him….
Yeah. Yeah.
"Burt can you please pick a category?"
"Pick swords."
"Yeah, sure, give me swords."
"It's S Words!! It's S Words!!"
LOL
Best Bert Reynolds ever!
RIP Norm. Thanks for the laughs!
R.I.P Norm Mcdonald a true comedic genius.
All four are now reunited in heaven. Rip Sean, Alex, Jerry and Burt
Except that Heaven is a made-up concept.
@@JanetStarChild The afterlife certainly does exist. Whether or not it's like in the bible, who knows.
@@Yabuturtle
Well, we can certainly rule out the Bible as a credible source, since it makes several claims that contradict science, history and logic.
As for whether a so-called "afterlife" is an actual thing, no one could possibly know for certain.
I remember once seeing an episode of the actual Jeopardy where all of the categories were replaced with the joke categories from these SNL skits. I wish I could find a clip of it.
czcams.com/video/QqCJZg3jjpM/video.html
1:43 the way Jerry Lewis' eyes bulge out... Excellent
martin short worked on the lewis impersination a long time
I was mortified to hear Norm passed away today. I can't even count the number of hours he kept me laughing. R.I.P. sir!!
my thoughts exactly
SABRE... IT STARTED WUTH A BLOODY S HAHAHAHA
Tami Swanson And Swords is an “S” word so he ain’t wrong
It's not that surprising that Turd Ferguson wouldn't be able to guess his own movie, since Kareem Abdul Jabbar missed his own line from Airplane.
1:40 If I remember correctly Alex that would be dancing for LADIES AHHH
This was just so hilarious makes me laugh so bad.
RIP every character in this sketch
