SNL Rules
Screw Mad TV Screw Mad Tv Screw mad TV srew mad TV screw mad TV.
I personally think the 15th reunion was better, but.....
O.k., except for the old farts who don't like profanity, the wheezer who only thought 20 minutes of it was entertaining and the chick who thought the intro was lame (Bill Murry's send-up of the reservation theme was genius), this is a very funny DVD. There are definitely some lame moments (David Spade's trying too hard to be `cooler than everyone else in the room' shtick), some painful moments (Adam Sandler's piece was embarrassingly horrible) and yet one more intensely boring musical piece from the lately ubiquitous Prince, whose own shtick of sexual ambivalence, wimpy voice and imminently forgettable tunes only rival his/her movie exploits for tedium.
Anyhow, although I think the MadTV folks do occasionally find a finer honed edge than the SNL crowd (and the first two seasons were consistently funnier), they are also taped and would have a hard time doing it live on a consistent basis. Like the ebb and flow of sun-spot activity, SNL has had good and bad casts, strong and weak seasons, but always has something going on that makes it worth while watching, and almost always pulls off one immensely funny skit during the evening. This is a collection of those efforts. Don't miss it. I just wish they would release the 15th anniversary taping. It was hilarious.
