Summary of MADtv
Like a demented offspring of Saturday Night Live and In Living Color, sketch comedy series Mad TV mines the world of popular culture for subjects ripe for parody. Based on the comic stylings of Mad magazine, the series satirizes celebrities, music videos, television shows, and more through outrageous sketches, a unique assembly of recurring characters, and the uninhibited zaniness of cast members David Herman, Debra Wilson, Orlando Jones, Phil LaMarr, Nicole Sullivan, Bryan Callen, and Artie Lange. Revisit Mad TV classics such as "Homegirl Surgeons," "That's My White Mama," "Happy Happy Storytime Lady," "Lowered Expectations," "Post Office Massacre," and the "Spy vs. Spy" cartoons with this 3-volume box set that includes every episode from the series' debut season.
