4. The Norm Show -- also known as Norm (1999-2001)
The closest thing Norm ever had to a hit show — it ran for three seasons — was also his most conventional. He played a former hockey player who is forced to work as a social worker after a court order. Laurie Metcalf played the do-gooder counselor he naturally developed a crush on, and gradually, he became a better person as his attempts to impress her became more sincere. This show likely got a boost from airing after The Drew Carey Show in its first full season. When it moved to Fridays the following year, it struggled, and quickly got the axe. But hey, at least Norm MacDonald had one show that lasted for more than one season.
