 | | Throughout the infamous Simpson trial, MacDonald constantly pilloried the former football star and repeatedly suggested that Simpson was guilty of the brutal slaying of his wife Nicole. |
 | | MacDonald's time with SNL ended controversially in 1997 when he was sacked from the show upon the insistence of NBC West Coast Executive Don Ohlmeyer, who pressured the producers to remove him, stating that MacDonald was "not funny". |
 | | After MacDonald left the show, his successor Colin Quinn gave a short monologue before his first starring role in a Weekend Update segment implying that Norm had shown him "the ropes" to being a Weekend Update anchor. |
