    I learned a lot from Norm. I wish him well. His shows will live on through reruns I'm sure.

    Sad to see this end with no fanfare. Norm inspired many, including me, to learn a skill and build something. Wish him the best.

    Wouldn't that be a little over the top?


    You did notice the source for this had a little more credibility than I heard my BIL and a friend talking?

    I also learned a lot from Norm, but luckily his teachings will live on on my DVR!

    Aw man that sucks. They definitely need to do sometype final season or a review Norm's favorite episodes. I am pretty sure that NYW was the longest running show on PBS and the Woodwrights Shop is a close second. Hopefully WWS will be on for a little while longer.
