Encyclopedia
The twelfth season of MADtv
MADtv
MADtv is an American sketch comedy television series. It licensed the name and logo of Mad, but otherwise had no connection with the humor magazine outside the animated Spy vs. Spy and Don Martin cartoon shorts and images of Alfred E. Neuman that the show featured during the late 1990s. Its first...

 aired from September 16, 2006, to May 19, 2007, with 22 episodes.

Cast

Stephnie Weir and Frank Caliendo left the show while Daniele Gaither was fired by FOX executives. In their places were Frank Caeti, Nicole Randall Johnson (who were now repertory players after a season of being feature players), and Lisa Donovan (who didn't appear until the 14th episode of this season).

Show

The cold opening sketch was replaced by an announcer giving a preview of the sketches and guest stars that will appear in the episode. The sketches themselves became shorter and aired in multiple parts so as to preserve the humor.

Due to Frank Caliendo's departure, political sketches centered around George W. Bush and his administration were nearly non-existent, barring the showing of a claymation short where George W. Bush threatens to blackmail Santa Claus if Santa doesn't help Bush defeat his enemies. There were, however, sketches that contained slight political innuendo (such as "Steve Jobs' The iRack", where Steve Jobs' mismanagement of his latest invention is compared to America's invasion of Iraq in 2003) and some sketches centered on the then-upcoming 2008 Presidential Election with Nicole Parker

. More TV and movie parodies, celebrity-based sketches, music video parodies, one-shot situational comedy sketches, and recurring character sketches began airing to fill the void that the political sketches left behind.

Clay-animated sketches made a comeback after being absent since season three, with the appearance of the recurring sketch, "Celebrity Pets", and a glut of non-sequitur pieces. The only non-claymation animated sketches to appear this season were "Weekly News with Toby" (featuring Frank Caeti giving a first grader's point of view of current events) and a three-part sketch about rejected superhero shows from Cartoon Network

Opening montage

The twelfth season features a new title sequence with shots of the performers as they prepare for the show. The screen divides into three different live-action shots. When the theme music starts, the announcer introduces each cast member alphabetically. After the last cast member is introduced, the whole cast is shown in a live-action shot. The music stops and the title sequence ends with the phrase "You are now watching MADtv." The sequence also features a new announcer.
