Why 'MADTV' Ended? - Here's Why

[jovanbrown]

Debra Wilson was the heart and soul of that show her Whitney Houston impression is the greatest impression I’ve ever seen

[Hains]

Mad TV was truly a game changer for our generation. Inspired by “House of Buggin, ” it was, at one point, the funniest show on TV. It's a shame that Debra Wilson didn't receive the compensation she deserved. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Mad TV really put up and coming comedians and voice actors like Phil LaMarr and Nicole Sullivan on the map. Great show and it’s way better than SNL👍🏾

I remember rushing to get home when I was a kid to watch Mad Tv Bobbie lee was and still is one of my favorite comics.

So basically: *Greedy executives kill a good thing as usual.*

[romegrey]

MAD TV wasnt In Living Color but for a time it seemed ptetty close and the stars they created were impressive as hell which is why I never understood why they didnt go all in to keep it going

[YoungSwaggness]

"Stewart" and "he Looka likea a Man" was my two favorite joints on Mad TV 😂😂😂

There was a time when Mad TV was on top, especially those first 5 seasons.

We also gotta pay more Homage
to Phil Lamar And Orlando Jones.
when talking about MAD TV.Those
2 brothas were also very early
greats of the show but underated
legends in todays conversations.
Overall every cast member of
MAD are legends..

I used to laugh hard at the Klops sketches, Aries Spears with another actress spin on The Wizard Of Oz, where he played a slave, and Debra Wilson potrayal of Oprah#BringThe90sBack!

This show was so superior to SNL. It never fails to amaze me that network executives would pay themselves before reinvestment in the product. Artist are always expected to do more with less.

I never missed an episode when I was old enough to watch it, and the ones I did miss I recorded and cried laughing every time. SNL was nowhere near close to touching this. I wished a better network had them.

I loved madtv! SNL wasn't better than In Living Color or Madtv.

[mjbankhead]

Stuart, Miss Swan, and the Vancome Lady were my favorite characters on MadTV. One of my favorite skits is when Hillary Clinton did a music video (take on Rihanna’s “Umbrella”) and she pretty much confessed she wanted to sleep with Obama. As soon as they started changing the cast I stopped watching.

[bxdale]

I say all the time that Will Sasso should've been a big star. He was to Mad TV what Will Ferrell was to SNL but Will Sasso was more talented.

[myvalentine]

Mad TV was way funnier than SNL. Aries Spears was hilarious

[jbmp]

The amount of talent from even the first season of MadTV is almost unbelievable. Will Sasso, Michael McDonald, Alex Borstein, Mo Collins, Phil Lamar, Debra Wilson, Pat Kilbane, Key and Peele, so many legends. And they didn't get the appreciation they deserved and often still don't. Thank you for the YEARS of comedy you provided me and millions of others throughout our childhoods and beyond.

MadTv was a great show and i stayed up every saturday night to watch it. But I quit in like 2004 after all the changes

[francisko]

MADtv was light years funnier than SNL's funniest skits

[jbeezy]

Growing up in a very strict Christian household, I use to have to sneak and watch MadTV!! I loved this show so much, I think this is why I have my love for Comedy to this day!!!!
