Okay, in regards to Comedy Central starting to show MAD TV lately instead of SNL (atleast in the US), I was wondering which you prefered. I personally like both. SNL is has classier and more mature comedy but MAD TV's has slapstick, off-the-wall humor. Anyway, which do you prefer?

It took me forever to figure out what SNL stood for... lol... Well, personally I don't watch either of them... I have probably only watch a total of 5 minutes of each in my entire life... So, I can't chose from them... :wave:

I like SNL. I never watch Mad TV since for some reason it just doesn't appeal to me.

MadTV owns Saturday Night Live, 'nuff said.

MAD is a great mgazine, but a crappy TV shows. Sketches are dragged out way too long and recurring characters are only mildly funny themselves and have absolutely crap writing.

The cast of MAD is less funny than the current cast of SNL, and SNL has better writers. So while SNL is currently stuck with a sub-par cast, I'll laugh every once in a while. I've never really laughed at anything on MAD TV. Just been annoyed mostly.

Celebrity Jeopardy alone > MAD TV

Always loved SNL more than MADTV. I even do episode reviews of SNL on a fan site

Will Forte + Fred Armisen > entire cast of MAD

SNL has been in a rut for a few years now but they need to get rid of some of the older guys, like Darrell and Horatio (Chris is still good for another year or two. He's just terribly misused). I personally hate it when Jimmy and Horatio break up during a sketch. Totally unprofessional. Nevertheless, it's still funnier than what I have seen on MAD

Though I have always been a fan of SNL, as of now I would have to say MAD TV is better. SNL has lost its spark. The cast isn't as good as it once was, and Will Ferrill, etc leaving made it worse. The only ones holding it together now are Mya Rudolph and sometimes Jimmy Fallon.
