What is the first thing that comes to mind when you think of anything that is satirical in nature?

Sir Thomas Wyatt's Epistolary Satires... but he is my mega-obsession.

MAD Magazine

CRACKED, when it was a magazine.

Saturday Night Live

Robot Chicken

How they can be funny and entertaining if done right, but terrible and cringey when they are not. Especially when you can tell they know little if anything about what it is they're making fun of. Like for example, Robot Chicken they had Ash put Pikachu in his Pokeball after wining a battle. Ash's Pikachu REFUSED to go in the Pokeball from the very start. And then when he releases Pikachu it discovers it has to fight a Charizard, and then it calls Ash a "douche" in Pokespeak, when actually Pikachu *can* take on a Charizard.

And then there was that MAD cartoon "My Little Pwny", which shows the pony characters attacking little kids. IN MLP FiM, ponies and humans don't live together on Equestria.
