Plus you get to do the Fold-In.) That year Mad’s TV and movie parodies included Raiders of the Lost Ark, Archie Bunker’s Place, Family Feud, For Your Eyes Only, The Greatest American Hero, The Fall Guy, M*A*S*H, The Facts of Life, and Rocky III! (Want to see Alfred E. Neuman as Mr. T? Done!) Mad also covered video games (their Man of the Year may have been a Pac-Man) and did some silly stuff with lobsters too, just for Kornflake. And speaking of Kornflake, her pick for 1982 is a Corn Flakes commercial! Also: It’s Freezepop Day. So listen to some synthpop and chomp on a weird frozen thing.
