[edit] Season Twelve summary:

The season premiere aired on September 16, 2006.

Season 12 went by with only a few minor cast changes to the show. All of the remaining cast members of season eleven (with the exception of Michael McDonald and Bobby Lee), were under contract to appear in Season Twelve. However, both decided to renew their contracts, so the only cast members who left the show between seasons eleven and twelve were Stephnie Weir (who left midway through Season Eleven), Frank Caliendo (who chose not to renew his contract), and Daniele Gaither (who was let go by FOX executives). Because of Frank Caliendo's departure, there is a significant lack of political sketches (as Caliendo was the only castmember who could impersonate George W. Bush) and an uptick in TV and movie parodies, celebrity-based sketches, and recurring character sketches to make up for the loss.

There was also a major format change in Season 12. At the beginning of the show, instead of airing a sketch before the opening credits, sketches from the upcoming episode are previewed. Also, so more sketches can fit into individual episodes, sketches are shorter, much like they were in early years. Often, sketches that have too much material to be all in one sketch are split into 3 parts, to prevent the sketch from dragging too much (such as a three-part filler piece about what shows celebrities have saved to their TiVo).

The featured performers from Season Eleven, Frank Caeti and Nicole Randall Johnson, were promoted to repertory status.

New sketches in Season 12 included a Korean Soap Opera spoof called Attidues and Feelings Both Desirable and Sometimes Secretive, starring Bobby Lee. Attidues and Feelings, spoken in fluent yet random Korean words and subtitled in comical Broken English (the dialogue and subtitles are not related), is a rather bizarre cliched soap opera about the twisted life of Dr. Poon Jum, his love's antics, and his enemy, Mr. President, a Korean crimelord. Each sketch left the viewer in a hilarious yet shocking cliffhanger. The sketches were usually shown about 5 episodes apart. Lee also played Johhny Gan, a Korean millionaire who hosts a rather odd talk show where him and his assistant, Pongo (who seems to be in love with him) interview celebrities. Also, Michael McDonald brought over a character from season 11, Larry Felmer, a celebrity-obsessed man who gets extremely angry when celebrities are mocked. Familiar faces also returned in Season 12, including Crista Flanagan's Wendy Walker (Three Minute Meals) and Luanne Lockheart, Nicole Parker's Disney Girl, Nicole Randall Johnson's Ka-Son, Keegan-Michael Key's Coach Hines, and Michael McDonald's Stuart.

For the first time in 7 years, animated sketches appeared on MADtv. Season 12 saw the return of claymation to the show with the recurring sketch "Celebrity Pets", in which pets of celebrities talk about their daily lives with their celebrity owners. There were also some non-sequitor claymation sketches such as "Red Snow" (a Happy Feet-meets-Saving Private Ryan movie trailer), "Cupid", Real Police Video: Immigration, and a Christmas short where George W. Bush blackmails Santa into killing his enemies. MADtv also developed a popular recurring animation sketch called "Weekly News with Toby", in which first grader Toby (voiced by Frank Caeti) talks about his view on current events.

Because of the major format change, shorter sketches, and return of claymation and animation, many have agreed that Season 12 has brought back the feel of the early seasons of MADtv, and some have also dubbed it a new era for the show, similar to how Saturday Night Live's twelfth season (1986-1987) was considered to be the show's new era after Lorne Michaels got rid of most of season 11's critically-panned cast.

[edit] Opening Montage

The twelfth season features a brand-new title sequence showing action shots of the performers as they prepare for the show. The screen divides into several different live action shots. When the music starts, the announcer says "It's MADtv! Starring...". When the last cast member is announced, the screen turns to the whole cast in a live action shot as the music stops and the phrase "You are now watching MADtv!" is said. The sequence also features a new announcer.
