Mad TV season 15

The fifteenth and final season of the American sketch comedy series Mad TV premiered in the United States on The CW on July 26, 2016, and ended on September 27, 2016. It was a reboot of the original series which aired from 1995 to 2009.

Summary

Seven years after the show ended on FOX (and in celebration of the show's 20th anniversary), MADtv was briefly revived for eight episodes on The CW (with episodes rerunning on streaming service Hulu). Critics did not take kindly to the revival, feeling that the show's quality had dramatically fallen due to an inexperienced new cast, production values that were worse than what was shown during the show's last seasons on FOX, writers who were too restrained by the censorship rules of primetime American TV to be edgy and funny, and former cast members being brought back to help the cast.

On the casting front, Nicole Sullivan, Will Sasso, Ike Barinholtz, Bobby Lee, Debra Wilson, Aries Spears, Alex Borstein, Mo Collins, and Anjelah Johnson returned as guests. New cast members include Carlie Craig, Chelsea Davison, Jeremy D. Howard, Amir K (the show's first—and only—Middle Eastern cast member, as well as the second cast member after season one's Bryan Callen to be born outside of North America, and the only MADtv writer to be upgraded to cast member), Lyric Lewis, Piotr Michael, Michelle Ortiz, and Adam Ray.
