i searched for the iota of humor but i think the direction they went was terrible and the actress was not up to par. They could of pulled it off with a bit more eloquence and intelligent humor.

3. I thought she was brilliant |
|
this was supposed to be a MadTV piece, not a moral story, and she is actually quite talented.
Mad TV does bizarro world stuff - remember the magazine? What If Condoleeza Rice Was Crazy From Having To Be A Robot? What if she had a breakdown in public?
That's where they were going -
ANYTHING is better than another Bobby Lee in bed skit.

Right ON!
I am SO sick of Bobby Lee in ANY skit.
Mad TV was at its height when Stephnie Weir was part of the cast. After she left, it's been downhill for me.

10. It still was'nt funny |
|
no one asked for master piece theatre, just for comedy. Stereotypes have a role in successful humor at times, BUT for a WHOLE skit to be performed in a way that is clearly baiting really doesn't provide for anything besides looking at it for what it was; an attempt.

15. they loosen up after about a thousand more posts |
|
but they can be trying when they're DU-young. Where did this spate of new kids come from? I didn't even SEE the bus pull up this time.
Hey you got any extra geritol laying around? I think I'm out.
