MAD TV is much funnier than SNL. MAD tv is more rude and crude, so you don't have to think about the humor much. You just laugh when it happens. Also unlike SNL it doesn't have some lame band every other commercial break.
And also does SNL have its own magazine? No.

It's a poll, not a place for you to force your opinion on everyone else.

How the hell am I doing that? If I wanted to force my opinion I would just make a regular post on why SNL sucks and MAD TV rules. I'm just running a poll to see what other people think

Yes, but when you are running a poll, you are not supposed to bias the opinions of others by stating your own. You sort of defeated the purpose of making a poll by following up with your very strong opinion.

So what? It's not like my opinion is gonna change their minds, especially considering that the majority of this forum always disagrees with me anyway.

most likely, yes- you are right.

on another note, let's quit arguing- I agreed with you that Mad T.V. was better even before I read your article.

Bleh. SNL goes on streaks. There for about five years, before Will Ferrell, Chris Kattan, and Tracy Morgan got the boot, SNL was hi-larious. Now, it's in a slum. Horatio Sanz is pretty funny, but the's only one man. MadTV, on the other, really doesn't do anything but make fun of people and use crude humor, which is always funny.

SNL, when on a good streak, is unbeatable, sadly, it's on more cold than hot.
MadTV, always funny, but never hilarious.

So, considering the circumstances, it's an even match.

Yeah, SNL has lost alot of its humor. Madtv is still pretty funny, and its on earlier, which could be a good or bad thing.

Mad TV is horse-blam!-, it was funny when they focussed on clever skits and warped ideas. But for years its just been parodies and reusing the same characters over and over again.

Mad tv seems to be more reliant on insults and stupidity rather than humor. While these things have thier place in the comical world, They cannot be the premise for an entire show. Also i find they reuse alot of there sketches, and just change the location. Somtime these are good, however theres never an episode wich splits your sides the whole way through. Stewart is funny though, but a little old. Snl usually has som great and well though out humor. They actually have jokes and dont rely on a fat guy impersonating how stupid lance bass is. Who could ever froget when the rock played superman, in the all to obvious secret identity. "yeah i heard he was -blam!-" "Now wait a minute! Superman is not -blam!-. Sure he may have experimented a little in smallville , but that does not make him -blam!-.". Snl may not always be on its "hot" streak, but it always rebounds. Snl all the way!
