By doing a mash-up parody somehow involving potatoes.
Seeing MAD poke fun at that stupid show will warm my heart.

How is Toddlers and Tiaras a parody? A parody of what, exactly? I thought it was a reality show about a bunch of little kindergartners and younger entering a beauty pageant... which I think is stupid, by the way.

I've never seen an episode of the show myself but I've heard nothing about it being a tongue-in-cheek parody of contests alla "Best in Show" but rather the parents of these girls take the competition very seriously and while that's ridiculous I don't believe it's meant to be a parody more so it's considered even a little too disturbing to be considered laughably bad.

A really solid episode this week actually. The timley joke about Daylight Savings Time was a good way to kick things off, as was the Dances with Wolverine. Which I'm glad actually was a footloose parody as well as an excuse to have that punny title and point out Wolverine's movie actor is also a broadway star (best bits of the segment were all the things the father banned due to his hatred of step up 2, the dances with the star judge being in Wolverine's head "Sometimes you have to fight and sometimes you have to dance. And now it's our time... dance time... everyone dance"). The other big segment was weaker. I don't know anything about Toddlers and Tiaras and though I do like slamming reality show, I think they already had a much better parody of Toy Story with the Buzz Idenity. So besides the mother wanting the kid to best for herself and barbie mentioning she looks for people who can bend their arms since she can't do that, pretty eh. The shorts were good this time around though: from how panicked Spongebob was about the spongewow and how inaccurate the host were being, Beiber and Pattision's superpowers (actually the best joke in the episode was him asking if anyone saw Water for Elephants, the movie Pattison's wished took off so he wouldn't just keep being typecasted) the black spy getting the white spy's dog to attack it's owner and the kids cars actually taking a live of their own and one guy constantly compaling about his insurance rates). Defintley a lot better then yesterday's Robot Chicken, even if some of the sketches are edging a bit on darker humor, it at least seems a ibt more natural and less crude.
Instead of just using this new signature to celebrate a thousand more post, let me list of all the great things you can expect of me on this board for 2012:

Really liked the episode, but the sketch I enjoyed the most was Sponge-Wow!, especially the part when "Spongebob" said, "Please kill me!"

This was a nice episode. Dances with Wolverine was an excellent sketch, Tater Tots and Tiaras however, was pretty meh. Sponge-wow and the celebrity super powers bits were the stars of the episode though. It's a good day when you can watch Justin Beiber get eaten by a bear.

Yup, SpongeWow was really funny!
I liked it lots, prolly one of the best segments ever to air on this show. Maybe someday MAD will do a TV "Super Special" one day with all the "best of" segments. I would add this in with Grey's In Anime, Toys 4 Brats, Zombi, and a few others that are the "cream of the crop" Good job MAD gang!
