So Mad Tv stole it off Mr Show who stole it off Harry Enfield. Actually, Mr Show might not have necessarily stole it, comedy writers can come up with the same idea. Though from what you're all saying Mad probably stile it from this.
The only way this skit could have been funnier is if when Bob Odenkirk asks Paul F Tomkins, "Why?" at the end, Tomkins said, "Because 24 is the highest number".
I wanted to say that it was just a borrowed premise. However, after watching Mad TV's 'Sopranos: edited 4 tv" again, it was quite surely a "rip-off" of this.
All MadTv did was a bunch of clipping. And it got old quick.
I don't know if anyone else noticed, but those Mad TV dipshits completely ripped off the premise of this sketch. Their version was The Sopranos on network TV, but the premise of the joke was exactly the same. This is yet another reason why Mad TV is the Dane Cook of sketch comedy.
@sdp026 Dude! I was just thinking that! I always found it odd that i only ever liked that one sketch in all the Mad TV episodes i saw... and now i know it's cause they ripped it off from the greatest sketch comedy show ever.
@sdp026 Oh no they did this way funnier. They cut out the swear words in the MadTV version. It's funny because they swear a lot in Sopranos and it would make the show short.
Mr. Show wrote this sketch with a joke, a premise, humor, and an ending. Who needs that when we can have another Stuart sketch?
@sdp026 mad tv ( can anyone believe that david cross used to be a writer for that show?lol) and dane cook (needs david cross as a writer for his comedy) can suck my ass! odenkirk and cross were comedic gods! mr. show is american comedy at it's finest! long live mr. show... well, on youtube anyway ; )
One of the reasons Mr. Show was so good is they knew when to end a sketch most of the time. Most of the time was SNL or Mad TV has a sketch that's halfway decent they run it about 2 minutes too long. So it just gets tedious and "I fucking get it, now please move on."
try to see run ronnie run and then zohan in this order in the end you will want to destroy your tv. try the opposite order is like the sun after the storm it make you say.
oh man I just saw Bad Santa on TV and it's dubbed over during swears just like this. It reminded me of thie Sketch so much I had to look it up and watch it again. Genious!
Why did people give thumbs down to this comment? He wasn't saying the sketch sucked, just that there was a version out there without the annoying URL in the corner!
its like when they play the big lebowski on network tv and john goodmans like "this is what happens donnie, this is what happens when u meet a stranger in the alps!! *smash this is what happens.. this is what happens when u meet a stranger in the alps." hahahaha
Mad TV was good for the 1st and second seasons then they got rid of the good cast and it went to shit. The only one that actually came out of it fine is Alex Borenstien (I think thats how its spelled) She does the voice for Lois Griffin on Family Guy.
first season of madtv was good almost solely because of david herman, being imo the funniest and most intelligent cast member. his skits were very clever and witty. after he left that show took a nosedive and has just gotten worse every year. and it sucks its on CC all day.
I always wondered why the show used to be funny at the beginning and became less funny as the years went on. It may be due to David Herman leaving, or other actors leaving. Writers leave too. Meh. The same thing happened to SNL.
Why on Earth brilliant masterpieces such as Mr. Show go unappreciated while lowbrow sitcom crap gets figurative blowjobs from the public.....it's beyond my scope of thought. Family Guy is another example, although it's easier to convince a network like fox to renew something than HBO. Still.... RIP Awesomeness.
A clumsy waiter at a restaurant spilled some guy's soup on his new suit. I can't remember specifically why they're burying it, I haven't watched the show in a while.
