Summary of "Season 1, Part 1 - This is just MAD!": I thought this show was hilarious, and much better than I remember the magazine being. There were some laugh-out-loud moments for me in nearly every episode, and I'm usually a "snicker to myself" kind of guy. Some of the parodies were spot-on, though there were many movies that were picked on repeatedly (Twilight, Transformers, though they both deserved to be). I enjoyed the "Spy vs Spy" segments, and if they had found a way to include foldable scenes, it would have been a perfect show.
If you've ever read the magazine, you should definitely take a look at this DVD. (read entire review)
