What makes it different from others?

There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Mad TV is without a doubt the best show of it's kind ever.How and why it got cancelled is a mystery when you consider that SNL is still running. SNL has not been funny for years now, It was once,not so anymore. As outrageous as Mad TV can be, how offensive it also can be ,IS what makes it so God Damm Hysterical. The chances it takes with it's subjects are no where else on American TV. Mad TV would never make it in todays P.C. culture.It would be worth watching some of the skits on YOU TUBE. From Stewart,to Miss Swain, to the Vancombe Lady, there has never been a show to take such chances with it's Politically Incorrect Writings.

The first time I saw time, mid morning at my friend's place, I was splitting my sides. My friend comes out, and says "You're not watching that s..t". But it's very funny s..t. My favorite is Bobby Lee, and Michael Macdonald, the lead, very good too. I didn't find out, till years later, this show was related to Mad Magazine, which I used to cringe at, every time I that ugly face on it's cover. Some of the skits that stay in my head, especially that Victoria Slims skit, showing us to lose weight, where she's living in a roach infested house and snacking on a barrel of KFC chicken, just stay imprinted in my head. Fat Obese Albert, I like too, plus The Sopranos, where the edit the bad language and sex scenes, where there's any film left. This is a classic show. I wish I could have every episode all on DVD, if if it meant they appeared out of nowhere and all came crashing down on me. A truly uproariously funny sketch show that will live on for many years yet.

OK, so maybe "Mad TV" is the same sort of thing as "Saturday Night Live", but you still gotta love it! No matter what the situation is, they always find something great to do (including a recent skit where Kim Jong Il has the hots for Jennifer Love Hewitt during the Macy's Day Parade). Part of what it shows is that as long as our society - and the world in general - functions as it does, satire will always have a place.As for the cast, they're all quite hilarious. Bobby Lee and Frank Caliendo have got to be some of the funniest guys out there; if you haven't seen Caliendo's George W. Bush imitation, then you're really missing something! If I have to choose between this one and "SNL", I would probably go with the latter just because of it's early days. But you can't deny that this one provides its solid share of laughs. It's a modern TV classic.

Is this garbage still on TV? Its... almost as unfunny as Carlos Mencia... I honestly can't ever remember laughing at anything on MADTV... and what turns my stomach about that show is the retarded characters like Stuart.... well pretty much any character from Michael McDonald.MADTV just needs to wait a few years until Carlos Mencia, Dane Cook, and Sarah Silverman are washed-up and they can just finish the show off..Maybe they can pick up Lissa Lampinelli right now...And for the argument about whats better... SNL or MADTV... you'd have to be either: A middle school kid, or half brain-dead.. to think MADTV is funnier than SNL...All the good comics have came out of SNL... and what good comics have came outta MADTV... gimmie a sec to count here... oh yeah... wait...None.
