Comedy Central has just given an eight-episode order to Sports Show with Norm Macdonald. The show will feature Norm cracking wise about popular and obscure sports in front of a live studio audience. That sounds good.
The show begins production this month with a planned premiere in April.

On Sports Show with Norm MacDonald, the 47-year-old comic will turn his sharp, satirical wit on the world of sports, riffing in front of a live studio audience.
He stresses, however, that the show will not just be targeting sports fanatics. Rather, through humour, MacDonald hopes to make sports talk accessible to a broad audience, much as Stewart's Daily Show reaches out to those who aren't necessarily political junkies.
"(Sports talk) can exclude people because it gets so arcane," says MacDonald.
