Oh well, all good things come to end. When I saw Norm starting to use old/repeat episodes to create season 21, I thought it might be coming to an end.
The guy is probably busy enough with "This Old House" anyway.
Maybe it's time for someone new to start a new type of woodworking show, without trying to copy what Norm has already done.
Also, I wouldnt say he quit, probably more like partial retirement since he is going to stay on TOH.

I'd take the job if they would offer it to me but there is one hitch. They would have to film here in the desert southwest. I've been in Boston in the winter time and it ain't happenin' agin. Well, maybe. If I could keep all the tools.

Nothing against Dusty:) ,but I seam to remember a fellow named Nick doing some fairly nice work on camera. Perfect time to roll out the new headstock?

Sounds like everyone thanks Norm wanted it to end. I don't see that in the write up though.

I for one have certainly enjoyed Norms run and learned a lot from him over the years. 21 years is a pretty good run...
He will be missed by a lot of viewers.
I wonder how many of the tools he has used in the last year didn't even exit when he started?
I also enjoy Roy Underhill, Scott Philips and the Rosenthals. I like a diverse range of woodworking. Norm did a good job of casting a wide net.

No one can replace Norm but if you guys want try and replace the void I like Marc J. Spagnuolo. He runs and puts up videos on Woodwhisperer.com
Here is a quick link to the shows http://thewoodwhisperer.com/category/video/all-videos/
