Yes, he phoned me and told me he wanted to come on the show, because I did celebrity Jeopardy as Burt Reynolds. His idea was to come on the show, punch me in the face, replace me and then be even stupider. He talked to me on the phone, and he was even funnier in real life, he would just laugh all the time.

Couldn't find it on youtube, but for anybody who is interested in Norm as Burt.

No offense to Mr. Macdonald, but I think Phil Hartman had the best impersonation. It's hard to find a decent clip but if you skip to about 37:53 in this video you can see it in action.
