Awesome!!! I'm a huge fan of MADtv!

Hopefully we'll see Ms. Swan, Stuart, and Lorraine!

Can't wait!

I finally got around to watching The CW special off my DVR and I was a little disappointed w/ this. I guess I was expecting to see the cast do new sketches and not a "best of" show.

Also, what was up w/ Bon Qui Qui being voted Best Character?

I was just going to post a 'where are they now' from seasons 1-5 or so. The early years were the absolute best!! I liked Mo Collins, Debra Wilson, Nicole Sullivan, Phil LaMar, Michael McDonald, the men of the show were the best.. Early years. One guy was in that movie Office Space and he was my fave.

I missed this 20th reunion special. I guess some cast members are doing better things or not so better things.

My thoughts exactly. I really wanted to see a new Ms Swan sketch.
