- When We Went MAD! Documentary · 2025
The story of MAD Magazine is as wild, anarchic, and irreverent as the publication itself. From its humble beginnings in 1952 to becoming America’s longest-running humor magazine, MAD satirized everything in its path—politics, entertainment, consumer culture, and even itself. This documentary brings together an eclectic cast of voices, including MAD artists and writers, alongside cultural icons like Quentin Tarantino, Judd Apatow, Bryan Cranston and Howie Mandel, to explore the legacy of a publication that forever changed American humor.
