BURBANK, Calif. (December 9, 2015) – Marking 20 years since the debut of the Emmy Award-winning sketch comedy series “MADtv,” The CW Network will broadcast the MADtv 20th Anniversary Reunion on Tuesday, January 12 (8:00-9:00 pm ET/PT). This one-hour retrospective of classic “MADtv” clips showcases the series signature pop-culture parodies and politically incorrect humor from the show’s 14 seasons, interwoven with new comedy material featuring 19 series alumni.

In the special, the cast reunites to attend a glamorous award ceremony to honor the series, but in classic “MADtv” fashion, nothing goes as planned.
The MADTV 20TH ANNIVERSARY REUNION will also feature appearances from some of the show’s signature characters, many of which have amassed tens of millions of views on YouTube, including Anjelah Johnson’s Bon Qui Qui. Also included are star-studded highlights from throughout the show’s 14-season run, with guests such as Jessica Alba, Tyra Banks, Drew Barrymore, Halle Berry, Adam Carolla, David Carradine, John Cena, Bryan Cranston, Anna Faris, Neil Patrick Harris, Dr. Ken Jeong, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, the Kardashian family, Jamie Kennedy, Jimmy Kimmel, Christopher Meloni, Ryan Reynolds, Snoop Dogg and Xzibit, among others.
In addition to the primetime special, 75 of the maddest and funniest episodes will be available to stream exclusively on CW Seed, The CW’s digital network, beginning January 5, 2016.”

Seriously.. move on. No one cares unless they were personally involved in this show. This is hollywood worshipping at it’s own alter. A “Clip Show” 20 years later???/ Really??? Try and “spin” it all you want CW but it’s pretty pathetic. I liked MadTV (It was no Fridays though). It’s on DVD at least part of it if anyone wants to watch. I’d wager a fair amount that the “best” clips CW pick are by far NOT really the “best” clips.
