Mad TV
The idea of a sketch TV show based on a humor magazine might sound ridiculous [stares directly at camera before clicking over to YouTube], but MADtv did it.

It even launched the careers of stars like Nicole Sullivan, Bobby Lee, and a couple of niche indie comics known as Key and Peele. Not to mention some MADtv moments outdid SNL by a mile.
