Considering that MA Dtv sucked pretty much from the word start and then proceded to consist of another fourteen Christ-fucking years of unfunny shit, I'm not going to even give this the benefit of the doubt.
I liked the first 10 years of Mad Tv actually. It stopped being funny around the time Bobby Lee came around. Don't get me wrong, he's funny when he's doing stand-up, but he was a spotlight stealing Token Minority on the show.
The first episode of this one wasn't bad. Haven't seen the second one yet. (Going to catch a re-run on Thursday.) I'll be sure to look away during the pimple gag. I nearly puked when Invader Zim did a zit gag, I doubt I could stand what Mad would attempt.
We're going to spread this shit like Nutella.Saw a re-run of the second episode last night. I still like it. The Transboremers sketch was funny at first, but then it just dragged on. Not to mention the needless Pixar refferences. The Larry the Cable Guy refference with Mater was so far off. "Tater Salad" is Ron White's bit, not Larry's, damn it!
I didn't think the Star Wars bit was too bad either. Except for the names anyway. I lol'd at the Six Flags refference.
We're going to spread this shit like Nutella.Well, considering the balance between good and bad, I say that the first half (i.e. the "first" episode) is good as I got plenty of laughs out of it and the second half is... OK. Not as strong as the first episode, but OK.
I agree on the whole pimple thing. Man, that's true Nausea Fuel right there. Dis-GUS-ting! It was bad when they were showing off in the previews, but seeing the extending version of it... Ugh!
... I think it is a OK show. I'm not sure on the long run, but I can get a few laughs out of it.
"What happened to Mad Magazine? I haven't seen it in ages. T'was a fine publication, that."
It's still out there, you can buy it.
Mad TV sucks ass, yes, but really it's not too related to the magazine since they dropped the animations they had way back 10 years ago.

Yep, I'm still here.I liked it.
"I'm the best at what I do, and what I do is clean stuff" something like that.
I'm just glad cn got a sense of humor about itself
I seriously hate those new live action preteen shows and I'm very glad whenever they get bashed.
also hooray for courage reruns
cn's picking up the slack lately. I guess it's cause school started again?
I just gotta say without derailment BRING SAMURAI JACK TO BLU RAY AND GIVE US A SERIES FINALE MOVIE!
I say kill off aku but then have jack decide to stay in the future timeline. leave it open to a new series
also in case you missed it, the main creator of MAD is also a creative director on robot chicken. So yea...
I don't think kids are going to get MAD but if they put it on as the last show before adult swim there ratings should be pretty good.

I really hated MAD, Its just a softer Robot Chicken. That Spy vs Spy bit was an actual Spy vs Spy animation.
