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
The first ten years of SNL was great, and some of the best TV comedy ever. The first ten years created some of the biggest stars ever. Once Eddie left it took years to get good again. Was good for a few more years in the early 90s, and ain't been good since. The stuff Eddie was doing on SNL was comedy gold. Most people do not realize that the year after Eddie left, was the lowest rated season ever of SNL, and still is, and it took them years to recover. It was so bad that they literally started the 1986 season apologizing for how bad the last season was. That is true, the first sketch in 19866 was an apology for being so bad the last season.
+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.
"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!
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!
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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!😍)
Sherpaful Oh, I guess you are also thinking that making fun of disabled and retarded people are well deserved too. No, making fun of people that act as you do would be more deserving. Shall I start?
"Winfrey you fool!"
Considering how Oprah is shown in other MadTV sketches, it's amazing that MJ managed to take over her show without apparent repurcussions from her.
Michael's too strong for Oprah.
I caught that too...
And the fact that she went alllll in to hug him.
People of earth 👀 killed me lol
As mj fan i have to admit this is seriously funny
Who cares that you're a Michael Jackson fan
MadTV was SAVAGE!
which is what was great about it lol!
In Living Color And Mad TV Had The Best Michael Jackson King Of Pop Impersonation Comedy Paradise.
In Living Color made some disgusting sketch about MJ,
Mad TV made SNL , well SNL its just stupid. This Show was intelligent and funny. Find that today. Good luck

bee boo Saturday night live

"It was very clear what Michael Jackson had to do." "Be the best father you can be?" "No, destroy the earth as we know it." XD
Phil Lamarr can do both Prince and MJ. That's talent.
How is that talent. Its playing the same character...a homo black man pretending to be white...

Wow, a funny well written Michael Jackson parody without pedofilia jokes. MadTV was classy as hell.
+brunettexunicorn Because Aries Spears started doing more MJ sketches after the second scandal. Everybody made jokes then, Jackson became a complete punchline.
It got disrespectful because that was in vogue. It's like a 7 year difference and context means a lot.
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.
Let's face it any joke with Michael Jackson and children in the same sentence is 99.9% of the time a pedophile joke
I'm a big MJ fan but seriously this parody is well done and is hilarious XD
if you was a fan you would be replying to the hate comments so your a fake fan
"INSANE?"
His expression kills me EVERY TIME!!!! XD
"You're already dead, you just don't know it yet." lol xD
+SilentFlood That should be switched around.
+Skillet91 don't make me cry

JessyKloves MJsomuch Yes I agree,its actually quite funny

JessyKloves MJsomuch I dunno, I don't think there were too many parodies of MJ that were disrespectful. Most point out his crimes against children.
Rangavalli Kari Why? O.o

"No I'm not. I'm 12". LOL.
So Michael, how've ya been?
That's a tough question Oprah you always ask the tough questions. 😂😂😂
RIP MJ I love ya ❤️❤️
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.
I always thought Phil Lamar did the best Michael Jackson impression.
Michael Flatley, I forgot he existed!
"Oh, please, child, you're almost 40!!"
LMAO!!
J Miller w I don’t think people heard that 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"I will always be 12" 😂😂
Mj: I'll be back.. I'm always come back..
Please come back..
+kick the dust! lol
Sorry he's not with us anymore
+kick the dust! that was sad :(
R.I.P MJ, but that "no I'm not I'm twelve" is something I could imagine him saying and all of us saying deep down inside.
Best Michael and best Oprah!
when he said "people of earth" i lost it lmao
Wow he sounds like Michael Jackson and she sounds like Oprah
He played the best Michael ever!!! LOL
+J. William Cosby Oh, really? If Michael Jackson really acted this damn stupid, Mike wouldn't have all those fans he had.
+Michael Idiot. Get a sense of humor, fanboy.
Doyledeth
LOL I do have one, I'm talking to you, aren't I? LMAO
Michael That was lame. So lame.
Doyledeth
...lmao and this skit you do not see as very lame? Let me guess. You suffer from brain farts?

Yes, that's Phill LaMarr!!!
+LadyL31786 ohhh i always wondered who it was!! thanks!!
No problem, it's amazing what makeup and special effects can do that would make you look unrecognizable, huh lol
Much like the real Jackson.
.."and kill every human being over the age of 12, only the children will survive".. lol... "I will always be 12".. this video is hilarious!
INSANE?! YOU MEAN LIKE CRAZY?! LIKE WAKKO JAKKO?!!! WELL I'M HOLDING THE BUTTON SO WHO'S CRAZY NOW??!!! (hhahhahahhahah)
LMAO!!!! CHOKING FOR LAUGHING!!!!
Guess who plays Jackson? Phil LaMarr. You could never tell because of the makeup.
I always knew. He played Prince as well.
The best looking Michael Jackson impersonator I've ever seen.
This never gets old 💀💀💀 idk how many times I’ve watched this
The "Blah-blah-blah" part gets me every time.
"You always with your blah, blah, blah" LOL - I know that's right!!
This is funny even though I am the biggest fan of MJ and that's no joke
LOL!!! that guy is spot on.
Charlie Kurlzz STFU... you don't wish death upon people bc it can happen to u.....😂🖕
as an mj fan i thought i would hate this but its just a joke and is really funny i think michael would like this for the joke
This entire skit is hilarious. The way he walks on the stage, lol.
One of my favorite celebrity parodies.. All you guys need to lighten up and enjoy this! this is funny XDD
“People Of Earth “ cuz everyone was watching Oprah back then
Shut up always with your blah blah blah 😂😂😂
Brian Cruz lol
Ironically, Phil LaMarr's enemy was Cod Commando.
When he said "people of Earth" that shit had me dying. I don't think I have laughed like that in awhile
"I will always be 12" LOL
I am an mj fan and I thought this was a little funny. Plus this was the least offensive video of Michael they have ever done compared to other ones
+NikiLoveMJ FOREVER I'm a huge MJ fan and I find the offensive ones funny as well. I'm not going to be an obsessed fanboy with no sense of humor.

Brings back a lot of old memories... use to watch mad tv all the time.. 😁
the line "I Always Come Back" is eerie
No it's not... or maybe it is if you're 10.
then you're 10
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
awhhh shit!! you called me baby! I went from 10 years old to a baby in a few days. DAMN, you got me - you're good!! :P
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
i know why because you a fake ass fan
LaMarr is the best Jackson hands down!
"No I'm not, I'm twelve," " I will always be twelve!"
- So Michael... How you been?
- That is a tough question Oprah, you ask all the tough questions.
Look at the likes vs Dislikes....this is a joke,get over it.

Michael Jackson was a mentally ill pervert. Making fun of him is not only funny, but well deserved.
