Mad TV is terrible
When it first came on the air I used to like it, but I have seen a few recent episodes on Comedy Central and WOW, that show is so shitty. It is not funny AT ALL. I don't get how they think those skits are funny. TERRIBLE.

I think the shows decent right now. It's way better then SNL IMO. I love when they do parodies of shows or actors. That's when they really shine. You ever see the Jackass parody? Classic.

But yeah, it was better a couple of years ago. I remember this skit called "Ridilin Room" was one of the funniest skits I have ever seen.

Will Sasso's impersonation of Kenny Rogers/George Lucas is hilarious. The only thing that makes the show decent without him is Mark McDonald.

I like some of their original stuff, but almost all of their recurring characters make me want to gouge my eyes out.

Stuart is the most annoying thing on television. Ever.

The only recurring bits I even remotely like are "Fightin' Ron" (which is funny for the first couple of minutes, then the sketches run too long and I hate them. God, I'm fickle) and Miss Swan.

They had a really good cast like 5 years ago, now its pretty weak.

I was watching it a few weeks ago and trying to figure out if Josh Meyers was related to Seth Meyers (on SNL) cause they look pretty alike.

Man, I thought SNL was bad with all the stupid recurring characters and skits driving them into the ground, ****, Mad TV is AWFUL. The Stuart thing and the Ms Swan garbage, and oh so many more, ugh, disgusting. Hasn't anybody ever heard of doing things in moderation? Most of the people on that show have like one crappy character that they do, and nothing else. Not that SNL doesn't often fall into the same category, but there are sometimes some funny skits.

When it first came on, like most of you said, it was good. Now that they have the older episodes it just is crap. I was watching the other day and I noticed that they dont even try anymore to dress up like the celebrities. The one part I watched had just the people in regular clothes who couldnt act the part right and I couldnt tell who they were making fun of untill they had there name called.

It sucks that Comedy Central plays it all afternoon too. I think the show is straight out bad. I've tried sitting through it and I never laugh. They should bring back SNL.
