I believe Norm lost the SNL gig due to his merciless skewering of OJ Simpson. The West Coast NBC guy was good friends with Simpson. Buy-bye, Norm! (I really enjoyed Norm and was angry he was let go!)

That’s what happened. The plan was for the real Burt Reynolds to come on SNL’s Celebrity Jeopardy sketch as a dumber version of the character but Norm was fired before that came off.
