eason summary

After Nicole Sullivan left at the end of season six, Debra Wilson was the last remaining member of the original cast. Season six featured players Andrew Daly and Stephnie Weir were promoted to repertory players. Also joining the cast were Frank Caliendo, Kathryn Fiore, Jill Michelle Meleán and Bobby Lee (the first Asian-American player on "MADtv").

Bobby Lee frequently performed an impersonation of Connie Chung in drag. Andrew Daly appeared as "Politically Incorrect" host Bill Maher, interviewing cast members performing celebrity impersonations. Kathryn Fiore played neurotic teen Kate Williams and sorority sister Taylor Rosenblatt, and impersonated Barbara Pierce Bush. Jill Michelle Meleán performed a dead-on impersonation of Drew Barrymore. Frank Caliendo performed impersonations of Richard Dreyfuss, Al Michaels, Al Pacino, Rod Roddy, Robin Williams, and FOX football commentator John Madden. Will Sasso appeared as *NSYNC member Lance Bass and impersonated Louie Anderson, Robert De Niro, Debra Marshall, Kenny Rogers, Steven Seagal, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Stone Cold Steve Austin.

"Real Mother****ing Talk", a parody of political talk-shows such as "Hardball with Chris Matthews" and "Politically Incorrect", debuted. The skit was hosted by Dollar Bill Montgomery (Aries Spears), who interviewed guests such as rappers (Method Man, Redman) and comedians (Earthquake, Corey Holcumb).

Guest Michelle Trachtenberg appeared in a parody of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" with Alex Borstein's Ms. Swan. Trachtenberg, who actually appears in "Buffy", was nominated for a Young Artist Award for Best Performance in a TV Comedy Series for her "MADtv" stint. Other guests included Todd Bridges, Vivica A. Fox, Frankie Muniz, Amanda Bynes, *NSYNC members Lance Bass and Joey Fatone, wrestlers Triple H and Stone Cold Steve Austin, "The Man Show" hosts Adam Carolla and Jimmy Kimmel, and several hip-hop artists (including DMX, Ja Rule, Insane Clown Posse, Master P., Method Man, Redman, and the RZA).

Will Sasso, Andrew Daly, and Alex Borstein left at the end of season seven.

Opening montage

The "MADtv" logo appears on the screen and the theme song, which is performed by the hip-hop group Heavy D & the Boyz, begins. A voice announces "It's "MADtv!" Starring...," and then alphabetically introduces each repertory cast member, followed by the featured cast. The screen splits into several different live-action clips of cast members performing recurring characters. When the last cast member is introduced, the music stops and the title sequence ends with the phrase "You are now watching "MADtv"."
