@antisadism: Hi. I'm the guy who asked about "math" about half way through. We were all audience members picked during the break, and we were given NO coaching and not even supplied with questions to ask. We all just made them up on the spot. So what you're seeing was completely improvised, which makes Frank Caliendo's "Wait! - this is math" bit that much funnier. Enjoy! Rob.
It's very clear that it was not coached at all. The "this is math" and "Do I recognize you from Vietnam" and all the responses, are true reactions to the moment. This quality of political comedy would, sadly, be impossible to see in network TV today
Easy, because they didn't give a shit about it. 2004 was a time when they were banking off of reality TV shows and American Idol OC and the Simple Life and Mad TV wasn't in their radar. Once Warner Bros took over the show FOX refused to give any promotion and advertisement and the show began to decline further more into obscurity.
I've been saying this for a while now, but USA should introduce an age limit at running for the presidency. Just like one doesn't allow a 10 year old kid run the country, one shouldn't allow old farts with one foot in the grave and questionable mental capacity take charge.
I assume it's purposefully made so you have to be old enough to have been groomed an blackmailed an be heading towards dementia. That way they can slowly poison you an no one thinks it's odd when you become senile. BTW I ran for president abut I already assumed I would find people trying to poison an follow me ; I was on fact documenting how it worked before I seen it
Ha ha, i was 12 during bush v kerry, and i still remember kerry never shutting up about his purple heart just from when i would catch bits and pieces from the news when my parents were watching it. i would also watch mad tv at age 12 too.
Yeah. Jim Carrey portrayed Biden on SNL last year, but they wouldn't dare let him make a hilarious fool out of Biden like he should've. It is what it is. 🤷🏿♂️
lol for real! that's what i was saying. mad tv always has good impersonations, even though frank caliendo was a real impressionist on the show, a lot of other mad tv cast members, past and present can do some really good impersonations.
Bush - "If we could find our own Shaq to send over to Iraqastan" John - "I wish we would of had him in Viatnam, he would of been fun to get high with" LOL
Don't even compare with SNL. After the SNL's golden beginner batch with Beluchi and Co, SNL occasionally achieves lol, these guys make us laugh hands down
This is so funny. Makes me so glad that Kerry did not get in presidency, especially after this disastrous Iran deal he put together. Guy doing Bush voice sounds like him a lot, but does not look like him at all.
The Democrats really picked dumb that year. Bush should have been an easily beatable candidate given the circumstances, but John Kerry was just an idiot who embarrassed the party into a second defeat. Then he became SOS later which was bad. Yes the Iran deal and other deals he made as SOS were terrible.
well whats a more recent sketch thats on youtube? pretty much all that ive seen r hilarious, some havent been funny but not sure if those r more recent

Awesome job to everyone.
You think this would be the most liked comment on the video...
Cool!
Awesome man! Thanks for sharing 👍

Madtv > SNL
Someone explain to me why SNL is still on the air, but this show is not.
I sadly cannot it's one of the greatest mysteries of the modern era.
Easy, because they didn't give a shit about it. 2004 was a time when they were banking off of reality TV shows and American Idol OC and the Simple Life and Mad TV wasn't in their radar.

Because MadTv made fun of liberals and Conservatives. Making fun of liberals is not embraced in Hollywood. This sketch is perfect!!!!!
+Rosie O'Donnell It got cancelled because in the end they became worse than current SNL unfortunately.
Which is complete bullshit.
"As the king of America, land of the free, home of the whopper" HAHA 😂
"she isn't black but she is loud and uppity.."
LOL
Caliendo's impression isn't an impression, it's a perfect Bush clone.
you wish Bush was this smart...
Best two lines: "I can't believe I'm behind in the polls to this" and "Slow down, this is math"
Me-shell Ombogaundello is actually close to Michelle Obama, coincidence!? probably.
"First of all, do I recognize you from Vietnam?" hahaha
That part got me. 😂😂
i miss this show.
me too, me too. it's hard to even find them online to watch. =(
0ofreako0 Copyright strikes removed some of my favorite skits.
John Kerry is the Democrat version of Mitt Romney.
"...I thought we weren't gonna talk about Vietnam!" That's fucking awesome.
"What's your view on healthcare?"
"I like it."
XD
mad tv actors do some of the best impersonations ive ever scene in sketch comedy! loves it! :D
OMG! Thanks so much for uploading this. It was so hilarious!
"Slow down this is math....." lmao
Haha "49 is perfect square". haha

Exactly! Like the walking and talking freak show that's in the high office of America right now.
@@donovanlee4745 Yes, unlike the perfect man Donald Trump, who is the highest example of all the best human traits.
Like Biden? Lol
There should be minimum intelligence and character levels first.

that was a good bit. i like how (seemingly) the audience questioned weren't planned ahead of time.
"slow down this is math"........lmfao
I can't believe im behind in the polls to this!!!hehehe..so funny..
Ha ha, i was 12 during bush v kerry, and i still remember kerry never shutting up about his purple heart just from when i would catch bits and pieces from the news when my parents were watching it. i would also watch mad tv at age 12 too.
Woah what a rebel age 12 watching a comedy show
His impersonation of George W is so dead on ! Amazing
Good god how far have comedy fallen. This is gold.
Yeah. Jim Carrey portrayed Biden on SNL last year, but they wouldn't dare let him make a hilarious fool out of Biden like he should've. It is what it is. 🤷🏿♂️
LMAO....this is priceless!!~ Frank Caliendo makes a great Bush hahahahah
this video almost killed me with laughter. those guys were so funny. everyone I showed it to cracked up. I love this video!
I can barely stop laughing....this had to have been the funniest Mad Tv skit i ever saw!
5:40 A wonderful piece of foretelling...
I wish we had this today instead of SNL
Caliendo's impression is nearly flawless am i right?
Hey look a new episode of That 70's Show will be on Wednesday.
"what are you implying? that he's a beautifull man w/ the hair of a ponny?" lmfao!
John Forbes Kerry reporting for duty! - Shit had me on the floor
Excellent video

"I like it, i don't if u gonna get it, but i like it" - LMAO
One of the best madtv sketch!
7:18 He said the quiet part out loud.
Awesome! Great job then, because laughter makes for the best memories. You helped in making one. :)
I died at the game boy and “America is the new texas”
This is awesome.
WOAH! to the girl at 3:43 HELLO
She can name my pet.
She's gorgeous i agree
lol for real! that's what i was saying. mad tv always has good impersonations, even though frank caliendo was a real impressionist on the show, a lot of other mad tv cast members, past and present can do some really good impersonations.
Bush - "If we could find our own Shaq to send over to Iraqastan"
John - "I wish we would of had him in Viatnam, he would of been fun to get high with" LOL
Wait, that's the actual audience? Oh shit
"49 is a perfect square."

XD
This is priceless!
This is great
I love Kerry and his Vietnam stuffs!
THATS AWESOME!!!
"America is the new Texas" LOL LOL

Don't even compare with SNL. After the SNL's golden beginner batch with Beluchi and Co, SNL occasionally achieves lol, these guys make us laugh hands down
Just seeing that’s 70s show all new episode makes me feel really old
Fucking hilarious! Especially the math part!
I miss this show
This is so funny. Makes me so glad that Kerry did not get in presidency, especially after this disastrous Iran deal he put together. Guy doing Bush voice sounds like him a lot, but does not look like him at all.
Thank God for Bush huh
Caliendo nailed the voice.
We probably could avoided a lot suffering if he did get the presidency.
Today this continues to be true.
The Democrats really picked dumb that year. Bush should have been an easily beatable candidate given the circumstances, but John Kerry was just an idiot who embarrassed the party into a second defeat. Then he became SOS later which was bad. Yes the Iran deal and other deals he made as SOS were terrible.
I hear ya, take care.
"I'd like to start off by saying as the King of America - land of the free, home of the Whooper." LOL.
I wish someone had thr skit where Bush and Kerry did a wife swap episode
so hilarious! i couldnt stop laughing! 5 stars!
i cant believe im behind in the polls to this.
lol
"... sometimes i get halfway through a sentence and I......" lol XD that kills me every time!
Love it.
hahaha "... strike that, forget i said that."
I loved how they parodied both candidates. Unlike SNL, who basically just allow themselves to be puppets for the democrats
SOOOO much better than snl
"My wife Theresa is from Africa. She's not black, but she is loud and uppity."
Will ferrell is a close second, bush impersonator
thats the first thought in my mind when i saw her too XD
"First of all, do i recognize you from Vietnam?" HAHAHAA poor azn girl ^_^
well whats a more recent sketch thats on youtube? pretty much all that ive seen r hilarious, some havent been funny but not sure if those r more recent
Are they using improvisation?
Imagine this nowadays?
This is improvised? Or they knew what questions the audience gonna ask?
It was completely improvised. See my response below for more details.
WOW the lady asking the first question is very beautiful!
"As the king of America." Hahahahahahahahahahaahha That's hilarious. XD
great!! extremely funny
Hahaha this is awesome
I cant believe Im behind in the bals to this ? XDDD
the face is priceless
what characteristic they are addressing on Bush? i dont get it im not american
that was too funny
hell ya he does
lol that nose on the guy playin Kerry makes him look like a bird
Again, I beg to differ. I am the drumline captian of my High School, as a JUNIOR. I beat out two senoirs who also wanted that position.
Yes i did I didn't even need a telepromter either.
I thought we weren't gonna talk about Vietnam! LOL
i love when he says "what are you impling?" LMFAO!!! "hold on this is math" "vietnam"
All new That 70's show ad? This -is- old...
when it said "all new 'That 70's Show'" a little part of me died again. WHY FOX? WHY DID IT HAVE TO END?!!?!? CURSE YOU!!!!!
he doesn't look that much like Bush, but his voice is IDENTICAL, seriously.
Wow...that was funny! Classic.
I'd like to start off as the King of America! LMAO!
3:11 is that actually Vietnamese?
water level near the koopa troopa lol seen this on madtv like 3 times now
