Not a huge loss, I haven't watched it in YEARS. As mediocre as SNL is, MadTV is even worse.

It's about time. I can't believe it lasted this long. I cant recall ever seeing a funny Mad TV skit.

Stuart and his mother were the only characters I liked.

That's too bad. I've watched it since its inception around...95? Used to be kind of like the wild side of SNL and it sure as hell launched a few careers. I stopped watching while in college but got back into it last year when my good buddy from high school was brought on as a cast member. Here's something they did "recently":

Show sucked after a few years. The first few years were great, David Herman, Orlando Jones, Phil LaMarr, etc. Skits like the Stink Sucker, the pig named Tony, or Raging Rudolf. Then shit like Ms Swan and Stuart came along, fucking terrible.

Mad TV is so much better than SNL

Bobby Lee's "average asian" skits were my fave

The Kenny Rogers and Paul Timberman's workshop skits were GREAT.

I never liked this crap show, ever.

Upright Citizens Brigade is, and will continue to be the best sketch comedy show ever IMO.

I think Keegan-Michael Kay can be hilarious.

Bobby Lee is a riot, I also loved the skits with the woman doing Whitney Houston impressions.

Abercrombie & Fitch skits were the best.

If you guys want to be upset about a show being canceled, King of the Hill is being Canceled as well. Now that's a funny show.

I never really liked it. Although the earlier ones were mildly funny they were generally crude and crass in a way that wasn't that humorous.

The only episode I saw was the one with the Steven Segal skit where he visited a diner. It was a riot.
