Sports Show with Norm Macdonald is a sports comedy television program that aired on Tuesdays at 10:30 p.m. ET on Comedy Central from April 12, 2011, to June 7, 2011. The show lampooned the world of sports using web videos and field segments.[2] Comedian and former Saturday Night Live "Weekend Update" anchor Norm Macdonald hosted the show.[2] As host of Sports Show, Macdonald is described as a "gleeful, equal-opportunity offender who is back in his element making snarky asides at the absurd excesses of the sports biz," according to TVGuide's Matt Roush.[3]
