Funny Thing About Michael Jackson Parodies They're Usually more Informative than the various MJ TV Shows and Movies like the 2 part The Jacksons The American Dream from 1992 or Michael Jackson Searching For Neverland the 2017 Lifetime TV movie and thank god I didn't bother with that crappy ass Flex Alexander VH1 movie that look like Horse Shit not to mention the Animated Halloween special on CBS let's hope that 2025 Movie Is a hit not a miss
+brunettexunicorn Because Aries Spears started doing more MJ sketches after the second scandal. Everybody made jokes then, Jackson became a complete punchline.
harrylongbaugh1 Not if you think of it this way. Michael always preached how children are the future and how he considered himself one of them. It was inevitable that someone would make fun of him for that. By wanting all kids under twelve to survive, he means that he wants only his people around him, the kids. But if you a sicko you think of it as a pedo joke.
I'm a proud MJ fan and I can say this is the only parody of him I've seen that I've genuinely laughed out loud too, used imagination more than false media reports!
"Winfrey, you fool! You're already dead. You just don't know it yet!" "SHUT UP! You're always with your 'blah-blah-blah'!" Just as funny as it was in the 90s when this originally aired. #Classic!
What's interesting is that, in real life, Michael Jackson was a great fan of Michael Flatley's work and the two of them actually connected with each other at one point.
Lucifer's Angel No, _you're_ 10,simp. There's nothing remotely eerie about a Phil Lamarr in makeup doing a parody of Michael Jackson say " I always come back." Grow up, you fucking baby
INSANE?! YOU MEAN LIKE CRAZY?! LIKE WAKKO JAKKO?!!! WELL I'M HOLDING THE BUTTON SO WHO'S CRAZY NOW??!!! (hhahhahahhahah) LMAO!!!! CHOKING FOR LAUGHING!!!!
I think this video is not offensive for nothing, it's very funny and Clear... I'm a fan of Michael... but it's funny and the guy who play Michael rule is simply fantastic.
I'm like a super MJ fan and I find this extremely funny. This along with the jackson family fights back. Every other mad tv sketch is shit. I don't know why I find this so funny I just do. Lol
Look at the likes vs Dislikes....this is a joke,get over it. Also,for people saying this was rude to make after his death,please learn to do some research instead of getting butthurt. Season 2...1997. Death...2009
WhiskeyDoe some parodies made before his death were very offensive - this was mild and classier compared to those so as an MJ fan I’m not so offended. but that being said, disrespect before or after his death is still disrespect. some people act so fake after he died...acting like it was okay to hurt Michael when he was alive. (not you because I know you were just clarifying for the people who didn’t know! but some others who think that making something before his death means something). Anyways, I’m fine with this :) it’s a joke, as long as everyone RESPECTS him I am good.
1:47 - 1:57😂😂 MJ: *"Only the children will survive."* OW: *"Well, then you're already dead, too?!"* MJ: *"No, I'm not, I'm 12"* OW: *"Oh, please, child youre almost 40..."* MJ: *"No, I am 12! I will always be 12!!"* 😂😂😂 (I loved this part so much!😍)
Jesus people complaining about this being insensitive, this sketch is from fucking 1996 for crying out loud....MadTV wasn't worried about being insensitive!! Phil LaMarr is awesome. That was definitely the best show on Saturday nights back then by a mile....SNL was never the same once Phil Hartman and Dana Carvey left. Show was not good anymore when it was just Sandler, Farley, Spade, Myers. There is a reason NBC fired all of those guys. Most people didn't realize it back then but MadTV was the better show for years and years, SNL was just so lucky that Will Ferrell fell into their arms. Had that not happened, there might not be an SNL.
Spade, Sandler, Farley, and Myers became movie stars financed by Lorne Michaels they weren't fired. Personally, when I saw Will Ferrell who is almost never funny to me doing those cheerleader skits I knew SNL was done.
Adam Sandler and Chris Farley were 100% fired by NBC in the Spring of 1995. It had nothing to do with Lorne Michaels, it was by demand of the network executives. NBC had new blood in the mid-90's and the situation at SNL became toxic very quick. Janeane Garofalo was hired as a writer and cast member and quit within a month because she hated it so much. Al Franken quit after 20 years on the show. SNL had to clean ship entirely. David Spade was not fired with those core of guys but was never very happy at the show after 1995, and after Norm MacDonald was fired Spade quickly exited. But trust me, Sandler and Farley were 100% fired by NBC, not by Lorne, but by NBC, and Lorne went along with it to save his job. Sandler recently talked about it on one of the late night talk shows, but trust me, I am not wrong about what happened at SNL in 1995. That was why MadTV was created in the first place. NBC executives cleaned house at SNL in 1995. 1995 was the closest SNL has ever come to being fully cancelled by NBC and most people either don't even know it or have totally forgotten about it, but it is true.
I hadn't meant to write that Mike Myers was fired, he flat out quit in the middle of the 1994-95 season after one night, and then it was Sandler, Farley, and Jay Mohr who were fired. They were all written a final sketch where one by one they all jump in a polar bear cage and are torn apart to shreds, with Norm MacDonald (who was not fired until 2 years later) as the only one who survives. Tim Meadows jumps in with them too. That was the sendoff for Sandler and Farley. They knew they were not being asked back to the show, those guys were forced out, they would have stayed the next season if it was their choice. Jay Mohr was fired and NBC executives tried to spin the story to say that he quit. In the end, no matter how you feel about Will Ferrell, he flat out saved the sinking ship, nearly single handedly pulled it up from the abyss and put it to the top of pop culture again in seemingly the blink of an eye, and at the same time the women of SNL (such as Molly Shannon) were truly becoming breakout stars for the first time since Gilda Radner. By 1998 SNL was one of the hottest shows on television again with at least 10 brand new characters from multiple cast members that became sensations. It made the NBC executives look like geniuses, but it was really a huge stroke of luck.
Darrell Hammond deserves a lot of credit for the on screen resurrection of SNL as well, his impressions, particularly his political ones, had a major impact on the show.
