Speaking of MadTV, I found out recently, Patton Oswalt wrote for MadTV. Also, Dino Stamatopoulos (Conan, Mr. Show, Starburns on Community) and David Wain! So why did that show suck shit?
From a story I heard Patton telling, the same reason everything good must die on network TV: the network.
He was talking about a skit he wrote for MadTV where a guy giving a eulogy was getting increasingly upset about $15 the dead guy owed him and the network guys were like "Shouldn't it be more money? Who would get that angry over $15?"
But you know what is funny?
Best,
Tim.
