[edit] Antonia

Nicole Sullivan as Antonia.
Nicole Sullivan as Antonia.

Antonia Timmens was a character played by Nicole Sullivan. Antonia spoke with a noticeable lisp; it was implied that she may have been mildly retarded. She found everyday activities and normal conversations challenging.

Skits featuring Antonia usually involved her attempting to perform a variety of jobs clearly beyond her limited abilities, such as answering a suicide hotline or piloting an aircraft. She also teamed up with James Brown, Jr. (played by Aries Spears) and became a bank robber. The source of the comedy came from the other characters becoming increasingly frustrated by her, particularly when she would respond with an inane comment, "I have a cat named Cici." Or with her catchphrase "It is possible!".

[edit] CLOPS

Title Sequence for CLOPS
Title Sequence for CLOPS

CLOPS was a MADtv parody of the Fox show COPS done entirely in claymation. It typically featured police officers pursuing and arresting popular cartoon characters or toys for "bad" things. They have arrested characters such as Gumby for robbing a convenience store, GI Joe and Barbie for a domestic dispute and disturbing the peace, Santa Claus for driving drunk and smuggling cocaine, the Rock-Em, Sock-Em Robots for brawling, Wallace from "Wallace and Gromit" for animal abuse (of Gromit), Mr. Potato Head for drunkenness in public, and Paddington Bear for indecent exposure. A crazed Pillsbury Doughboy was shot at repeatedly but to no effect on his doughy body, so he was pushed into an oven and cooked. Mr. Peanut was holding other nuts hostage with a nut cracker and when the police confronted him, he cracked some hostages and then turned it on himself. Other Characters include the Energizer Bunny, Furbies, a California Raisin, Teletubbies, The M&M Candies, the Budweiser Lizard, and the Budweiser Frogs.

[edit] Tank

Tank is a small Asian character played by actor Bobby Lee. Tank drives a Daewoo and has his cousin sit in the back of his car making it bounce, play music and turn on underglow lights when he shouts commands. Bouncers don't admit him into nightclubs, so he tries to pick up girls outside the clubs and impress them with his car.

[edit] Dot

Dot Goddard is an attention-starved and hyperactive seven-year-old girl played by Stephnie Weir. Dot obsesses about wearing gloves, constantly chews gum, wears her hair in pigtails, and frequently wears pink fairy wings on her back even in formal settings. A recurring theme of these sketches is Dot driving her parents crazy with her scenographically exaggerated childish antics, who obviously favor Dot's gifted twin sister, Karen, played by Alex Borstein, who loves Dot like a best friend. Dot's parents, on the other hand, are increasingly abusive to her, sometimes going so far as to outright pretend she doesn't exist or even threaten her with physical violence if she doesnt calm down.

[edit] Stuart Larkin

Michael McDonald as Stuart, with Mo Collins as his mother.

Stuart Larkin, the most recognized character from MADtv, is a hyperactive and possibly autistic little boy played by Michael McDonald. He is almost always accompanied by his supposedly borderline alcoholic mother, Doreen (Mo Collins), who scolds him for his various acts of childhood mischief. For example, he is often seen eating different junk foods, and when his mother inquires about them, he simply replies that he found them on the floor. His face is pale, and he often stares vacantly at nothing, possibly because of constantly-hinted-at childhood traumas, such as his dad leaving them. He hates going to his dad's house. Once, he said to his mother, "Mommy, Daddy called," and his mother, quavering, replies, "What did he say?" and Stuart replies, "He said he's glad to be out of this hellhole." It was said that Stuart's father left them on a Tuesday for an Asian woman whom he had met on the Internet (no matter when the sketch takes place, Stuart's dad has always left that previous Tuesday). It was also reported that he didn't pay child support because she wanted a home in Studio City. Stuart is known for his catchphrases, specifically "Look what I can do" (and his subsequent break into an awkward, spasm-like flourish), and "Let me do it!" when an adult attempts to assist him with something. (He often follows this up with "Dooooon't" when said adult tries again.) He occasionally refers to his genital area as his "danger zone", or referring to the genitals directly as his "googal." When pushed too far, his boyish falsetto is replaced by a deep demonic voice. Many times in the skits, it is often said that he should not have sugar, or otherwise he will become "crazy." His original name was "Scott." His middle name is Douglass.

Now Stuart only occasionally appears due to the departure of Mo Collins.

[edit] Rusty

Rusty Miller, played by Michael McDonald, is a college student at Cal State-Fullerton with a public access show. Originally, the skits involving the character focused on his college life and his attempts to fit with his fellow peers at college, in spite of his often nerdy behavior (most notably his love for Zima over other forms of alcoholic beverages) and annoying tendencies. But this was dropped and instead the character was revamped as a host of a public access television show, with Rusty interviewing numerous celebrities such as Drew Barrymore and Mandy Moore. The show is called "This and That with Rusty". His show is broadcast on the Cal State-Fullerton campus and parts of Yorba Linda. A couple of sketches mention the fact he has extremely large genitals. The lyrics to "This And That With Rusty" theme are: Look at this! Look at that! Now it's time to sit and chat! About this! About that! It's this and that with Rusty!

[edit] Lorraine Swanson

Lorraine Swanson is a deranged, middle-aged woman in her late 40s to early 50s from Fridley, Minnesota who fails to comply with many people's instructions and is played by Mo Collins on MADtv. Lorraine wears high, elastic-waist jeans that she tucks her shirt into. Lorraine also has an unbuttoned knit sweater (usually red) and huge, thick glasses. In one scene she displays she has a huge family with many children including her overweight husband, Carl (played by Paul Vogt in later seasons), and her equally overweight son, Carl Jr., who both videotape her crazy exploits into the real world. She, as well as other MADtv recurring characters, has certain catchphrases such as; "Heh?!" (usually before someone is done talking), "Gaaaaawd, thats/you're cute," "Uh-huh-huh-huh!" (a sound that imitates a 'clearing your throat sound') when excited or amused, as well as a very nasal-sounding "Caaarl!" and "Caarl Jr." when referring to her husband and son. Every sketch has a certain word she cannot pronounce; she repeatedly interrupts the other character's correct pronounciation several times before going "Uh-huh-huh-huh!" She was last seen taking a camping trip with her family who all seem to have the same traits that she has like her cough and glasses. She said "I'm going to get retired in Florida to get pickled on pina coladas!" Like many other characters on MadTV, Lorraine became increasingly antagonistic toward others as her character developed, at one point requiring three days to answer the $100 question on Who Wants to be a Millionaire? despite having the answer given to her by the host. Her kids are Carl Jr., A.J., Dick, Li'l Dick, Bobbi, and Muhammad. Her grandson's name (Muhammad's child) is Li'l Moe.

[edit] Ms. Swan

Alex Borstein as Miss Bunny Swan.
Alex Borstein as Miss Bunny Swan.

Bunny Swan, more commonly known as "Miss Swan," is portrayed by actress Alex Borstein and appeared on the show until Borstein's departure. She was born on November 25, 1966 (as revealed on her driver's license when she goes to the DMV) making her 40 years old. It was also revealed that she has brown eyes, is 5'2", and weighs 145 pounds. She is arguably the most well-known and popular character from the program. She began as little more than a character based on stereotype. She is portrayed as an older Asian woman who works as a manicurist at the Gorgeous Pretty Beauty Nail Salon (which she mispronounces as "Goja Pitty Booty Nay Salon" every time she says it). An episode also states that she is Icelandic. In another sketch, she tells a man in a bar that she is half Spanish and half alien, though she exclaims the silliness of the bewildered man when she thought he believed her. In one sketch it is revealed that Miss Swan is from the fictional country of Kuvaria, near the North Pole, and home of Santa Claus. In the same sketch, she says her date of birth is 3-15-98, which would have made her two years old in the year 2000, which is highly unlikely, despite her claims that, 'I turn three on the fifteen (sic)'. In another sketch, she says that she is over 100 years old; whether this is comedic coincidence or a well-developed character background is unknown. The comic situations she would get into usually arose from her inability/unwillingness to communicate with others effectively due to a supposed language barrier. (One sketch with an automated teller machine shows her being fluent in the Spanish language.) Eventually the other character in the scene would become fed up with her and storm off in a rage. Early on, her catch phrase "Okee, I tell you eh-we-ting: he look-a like a man!" would catch on, stemming from a sketch in which she was unable to identify a thief because of her inability to describe him. In all but a few episodes, Miss Swan would purse her lips precociously which has, henceforth, been known as another symbol for the famous character. Her ATM pin number is 7926. As the sketches progressed, Miss Swan would be put into more absurd situations and locations (such as a drag queen club) and it became increasingly established that she was intentionally agitating those with whom she interacted. It was revealed that she spoke perfect English and simply found it entertaining to pretend to be a cultural illiterate, which was a new source of comedy for the bits.

Miss Swan would also make a cameo appearance on an episode of Family Guy, on which Alex Borstein is also a cast member.

Situations featuring Miss Swan include:

  • Several appearances on Lowered Expectations, a video dating service
  • Trouble with U.S. Customs when arriving from Kuvaria
  • Trying to rent a movie
  • Visiting the Department of Motor Vehicles to renew her driver's license
  • Several problems while trying to acquire or purchase items, such as Starbucks coffee, snacks at a movie concession stand, money from an ATM, hamburgers at a drive-through, and special meal service on an aircraft
  • Trouble, while portraying her on The X-Files, after being investigated for a possible alien abduction
  • A man calling her in response to a phone sex advertisement
  • Trying to find a person to watch her nail salon
  • Auditioning for The Spice Girls
  • Blondie 'plagiarizes' her song.
  • Meeting with an estranged father (portrayed by guest star Mark Hamill), who attempts (and presumably succeeds) to kill her.
  • Bunny the Vampire Slayer, where Ms Swan slays vampires in Sunnydale; this episode was hosted by Michelle Trachtenberg, who plays the role of Dawn from the show.
  • Pitching a movie of her life to a Hollywood executive, presenting him with a script scrawled on paper bags, disposable soft drink cups, and other trash. The flim is eventually picked up, with MADtv guest star, Susan Sarandon portraying Swan in a faux trailer for the film.
  • On an airplane
  • Singing the MADtv theme song.
  • Standing on the SNL stage with the cast of Family Guy from Don't Make Me Over.
  • Being questioned as a witness of the Lewinsky scandal, but she could only describe the president with her catch phrase.

[edit] El Asso Wipo

El Asso Wipo is a Mexican wrestler who was looking for wrestling work in the United States. He appeared in the show's early seasons, and was played by David Herman, Chris Hogan, and in one special guest appearance, by David Arquette. The humor of the skit lies in the fact that the talent agent is trying to tell El Asso Wipo that his name was not suitable for American viewers. Soon after, other wrestlers with bad names were introduced such as El Diablo Negro (The Black Devil), and Señor Bag of Crap (Mr. Bag of Crap). An often quoted line from El Asso Wipo is "I will break your back, like so, with my knee!" accompanied by a breaking-a-back-over-the-knee motion.

[edit] Bunifa Latifah Halifah Sharifa Jackson

Debra Wilson as Ms. Bunifa Latifah Halifa Sharifa Jackson.

Bunifa Latifah Halifah Sharifa Jackson is a character played by Debra Wilson. The character makes extensive use of Black English Vernacular (ebonics) when speaking, and quickly accuses other characters' most basic assertions as motivated by racism. Her character often rapidly shifts her mood for comedic effect: aggressively arguing with other characters one moment, then talking amicably and acting buddy-buddy with them seconds afterwards. An early form of this character appeared in season one, but she was more articulate and a doctor. She is not to be confused with the Hispanic female named Melina, another of Debra Wilson's characters.

[edit] Cabana Chat

"Cabana Chat" was a recurring feature of the second and third seasons of the show. The hostess was madly enthusiastic Dixie Wetsworth (Mary Scheer), apparently hopped up on diet pills, with a deep tan and wrinkled skin, and a Southern US accent. She was prone to broad double-entendres, and flirtatiousness with males, especially her musical director, Dexter St. Croix (played by Orlando Jones), and Pool Boy (played by Bryan Callen). Of Pool Boy, she has said, "He's like a New York hotel: nothing much upstairs, but the lobby's fantastic." The similarity of her persona to comedienne Phyllis Diller was underscored in one episode when Diller herself appeared in the skit with Wetsworth. Upon entering the cast in the third season, Aries Spears would join the segment as "James Brown, Jr."

Sequences aired in:

[edit] Darlene McBride

Darlene McBride is a country singer played by Nicole Sullivan. Darlene has a big hairdo and is always singing about her radical right wing views. She is always taking her views to the extreme by saying and singing her radical beliefs. These include:

  • "The lord loves the NRA he told me so the other day he spelled it out in bullets in the sky. He's sittin' up in heaven with his AK47 he's a rough and ready macho kinda guy yee-haw!"
  • "'Scuse me there mister negro, but I'd like to ask you a question. What's so bad about the back of the bus? You still got a seat like rest of us. I don't understand all the fuss 'bout you sittin' in the back of the bus."
  • (talking about America)"And now look at it, a big ugly meltin' pot just boilin' over on what used to be a nice WHITE stove."
  • "Love comes in many colors but it looks best in white (winks at the audience)."

She has given her young relatives high-powered assault rifles, and when a map was shown for the path on her "Take Back America" tour, the markings created a swastika.

Darlene McBride seems to be modeled after Martina McBride, a country singer with songs generally having strong messages, but not radical ones.

[edit] The Eracists

The Eracists are a group of motivational speakers who would tour community centers and schools to preach against bigotry, while unknowingly exhibiting aspects of that very behavior. The Eracists are made up of Alex Borstein (whose character was in a wheelchair), Nicole Sullivan, Phil LaMarr and Will Sasso (whose character was unaware of his heavy weight and rather thought his telling feature was his red hair). The way they spoke was by music, dancing and singing. Phil LaMarr was later replaced by Aries Spears, a visibly gay character, but one who asserted that his feature was that he was "the black one."

[edit] Kappa Kappa Kappa Sorority

Stephnie Weir, Kathryn Fiore, Debra Wilson and Mo Collins as the sisters of Kappa Kappa Kappa.
Stephnie Weir, Kathryn Fiore, Debra Wilson and Mo Collins as the sisters of Kappa Kappa Kappa.

The Kappa Kappa Kappa sorority is a sorority house at USC filled with popular and slutty but overall mean-spirited girls. Most sketches involve the girls going to ugly and uncool girl's dorms and giving them a makeover. But rather than giving them makeovers, they torture them by breaking their musical instruments, glasses, and injuring them in numerous ways. The implied joke is that the sorority initials dubiously spell out KKK. They have often unintentionally frightened black people while wearing white hooded sweatshirts with KKK written on them. In one episode, they had an Olympics type games such as passing a torch around the park and they gave $100 to a married couple with a baby but the couple ran away from them. Their competitors are the Zeta Iota Tau or ZIT for short.

[edit] Inside Looking Out

Pat-Beth Lamontruse (Nicole Parker) and Dontell Lamontruse (Jordan Peele) are an interracial couple who sing and preach against bigotry, despite the fact that Pat-Beth is racist. They seem to love each other very deeply despite Pat-Beth's racist comments. In later sketches, Dontell realizes what Pat-Beth is really saying and tries to correct her or, failing that, shut her up.

[edit] Lida Rosario and Melina Hacinto

Lida Rosario (Nicole Sullivan) and Melina Hacinto (Debra Wilson) are two loose and bitchy Hispanic girls from Los Angeles. Their ethnicity is never stated but judging by their accents they could be Puerto Rican or Dominican. One sketch had them running a beauty salon, "Melina and Lida's Parlor Of Beauty and Stuff". But future sketches had them clerking at a convenience store, partaking as guests on the Jerry Springer Show and competing in a beauty pageant and on MTV's Spring Break. Most sketches either revolve around or mention Rosa (previously unseen, but played in a later sketch by Mo Collins), whom they blame for being a "skanky slut" and stealing their boyfriends. Their adventures usually involve trying to pick-up boys, usually stating "I'd do you" to any guy they like.

[edit] The Vancome Lady

Nicole Sullivan as the Vancome Lady.

Arguably MADtv's first huge hit of a character, the Vancome Lady, or Kathy Wajonowski (real name), is a self-absorbed, cynical, bigoted woman with heavy eyeshadow played by actress and comedienne Nicole Sullivan (though her original appearance did not include the eyeshadow or gaudy hair or clothes). The Vancome Lady is also the very first MADtv recurring character, appearing in the second sketch of the very first episode, as well as the fourth sketch of the same episode.

The name "Vancome Lady" is a reference to the first few episodes where she worked at the Vancome (a comedic interpretation of Lancome) Makeup Center at a fashionable department store.

She crushingly insults every character she comes into contact with, her insults often resembling the jokes of insult comics in the tradition of Don Rickles or Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. She has a different job in each skit because she always alienates those around her in her previous job, and when being fired, she thanks her male employer for "letting her sleep with him" (usually with a funny metaphor, "Well, thanks for giving me the job, aaand thanks for letting me sit on your lap" Santa Claus Episode) and exit leaving her ashamed boss behind. Her catchphrase, delivered when she disagrees with someone, is "Tcha... you know what? Uh-uh!", and another trademark is plugging her ears and saying "La La La..." repeatedly when person begins screaming at her as she pretends not to hear them. She often completes this sequence with a hand gesture and the phrase "...aaaand scene! Thank you very much. Goodbye now! Buh-bye! Shoo! Shoo!"

Positions she's been fired from:

  • Vancome Makeup Counter at a Department store (The only occupational position she had twice, the 1st being her debut.)
  • Emergency Room Receptionist
  • Department Store Elf
  • Betty Ford Clinic Receptionist
  • Casino Dealer
  • Virgin Mary in a Christmas Play
  • Bank Employee and Hostage Negotiator
  • Contestant on The Bachelorette
  • School Counselor
  • God (in a Planet of the Apes parody, subsequently replaced by Jaq, the UBS Guy)
  • Snack Vendor at the Super Bowl
  • Resident of a small town in a Halloween Episode

[edit] Coach Hines

Coach Sandoval "Sandy" Hines, played by Keegan-Michael Key, is a short-tempered Catholic school gym teacher and basketball coach who threatens to kill the students, such as saying he's going stab them with a pencil for real or imagined misbehavior. His character is hypocritical in that he easily becomes ill-tempered by disruptive behavior from students during various types of school events and threatens them with various violent punishments, however, he is far more disruptive than the students he threatens. For example, in one sketch he repeatedly interrupted his team's basketball game with violent tirades and the sketch ended with his getting beaten by a nun (as most do). Some have said that this character was inspired by the character of Coach Cretin on Nickelodeon's All That.

[edit] Noodles & Nippy

Noodles (Jordan Peele) & Nippy (Crista Flanagan) are two clowns (The Hype Jingleberries) who try to teach people the art of krumping. The two often preface their demonstrations by describing, somewhat menacingly, how krumping helps them control their urges towards criminal and violent behavior. Ironically, then, most of their demonstrations involve Nippy taking some sort of physical abuse from Noodles, such as getting shoved over or hit in the face, then allaying the audience's concerns for her safety by stating repeatedly, "that's just the krump," but still appearing to hold back tears.

[edit] Jorge

Jorge (Keegan-Michael Key) is a short-tempered Mexican man who works at a Mexican fast food restaurant, presumably modeled after Taco Bell. Disgusted by the meal choices and cooking procedures at the restaurant, Jorge often recites long, overly dramatic soliloquies about his Mexican heritage. Whenever the customers order an unauthentic meal choice from the menu, Jorge assaults them, either verbally or physically. For example, when a customer orders "cinnatwists" from the menu, Jorge brandishes a knife from his boot and angrily stabs the customer's hand while it rests on the counter. His supervisor is an overly-tired black woman who yells "Jorge!" whenever Jorge does something inhumane or wrong, which is often.

[edit] Emcee Esher

Emcee Esher, played by Aries Spears, is a fictional hardcore rapper who uses constant (censored) profanity and has extremely profane, though very short, music videos, which are censored heavily on TRL. He has released 14 albums since his death in 1998, made numerous appearances on MTV TRL, and seems to be very popular. His name is a reference to M.C. Escher.

[edit] Dr. Kylie

Dr. Kylie Johnson, played by Stephnie Weir, is a doctor specializing in a variety of fields. Any who meet her for the first time outright refuse to believe she is a doctor, because she acts like a ditzy, alcoholic sorority girl. She constantly plays innocent practical jokes on her patients, wears belly-shirts, decorates her pencils and stethoscopes in pink fuzz, and generally never seems to take her job seriously. But despite all her joking, she is a genius in the medical profession, and her colleagues regard her as one of the best in her field. Some of her antics include having a squirt gun fight in the ER, pretending that one of her pregnant patients gave birth to a teddy bear, and recording a dating service video on a proctological camera.

[edit] Bae Sung

Bae Sung is played by Bobby Lee and is a Korean, Japanese, Chinese man who has had a number of jobs mostly as a translator. His major problem is that no one can understand him since he speaks the language of "Dumbass". His recurring phrase that is used in every one one of his skits is "Uh-oh, Hotdog". In later sketches (most of them involving Ike Barinholtz) Bae Sung would go through a series of questions which he answered in gibberish until the final instance where he was able to follow it with his catch phrase. The character was killed off in season 11 in a sketch involving the Taiwanese Triads and the cast of The Sopranos. He was then ground up into hamburger meat by Paulie Walnuts (Barinholtz) and Silvio Dante (Frank Caeti) and was consumed by Bobby Lee who promptly got sick and defecated Bae Sung into a toilet. The final scene shows Bae Sung swirling around and going down the drain.

[edit] Superstitious Knights

Carl Hall (Keegan-Michael Key) and Ty Gray (Jordan Peele) are two individuals who are heavily superstitious. When an accident occurs that is believed to cause bad luck, they "man up" and attempt break the curse by doing long, very well choreographed, dance routines.

[edit] Reality Check

Reality Check was a talk show on BET hosted by Belma Buttons (Aries Spears) and Tovah McQueen (Debra Wilson), two obese black women. The sketches feature a white guest, who gets routinely insulted by Belma and Tovah until the guest makes a witty comeback, such as Tom Ridge telling "the two of them to get four chairs and sit down". Belma and Tovah would retaliate by taking turns lashing out at the guest, then ending the show by telling the guest to "think about what we said." The only person they took a liking to was Bill Clinton, played by Will Sasso, after he insulted himself in the same way Belma and Tovah insults people. On one occasion, one episode was done entirely on a Southwest Airlines plane, evidenced when Belma said "Damn, this flight makes more stops than R. Kelly's limo in a preschool parking lot" to Tovah's response of "God bless Southwest Airlines, ghetto bus of the skies".

The sketches would generally start with the phrase "You are watching the BET network, providing quality intelligent television for the African American community" which would be followed by an ad for a product based on black stereotypes (i.e., Red Kool-Aid ('cause black people LOVE the color red!) and assault rifles (when they shoot you, shoot back!).

[edit] Yvoone Criddle

Played by Daniele Gaither. Known for acknowledging her evil doing but defending herself at the same time.

[edit] Eugene Struthers

Eugene Struthers is played by Keegan-Michael Key. This repeating skit involves Eugene as a water delivery man who discovers and accosts unsuspecting guests backstage. His "common man" dialect brings honesty and hilarity to the character. His catchphrase "taking it to a 'hole, 'notha, level" has become part of the American lexicon. [1]
