HEY GUYS! HERE’S A CRAZY GOOD FACT TO MAKE YOU CRAZY!!
Cartoon Network's MAD (which ran from 2010 to 2013) fell into this, since many of its parodies were of then-recent pop culture artifacts, not just popular media of the time like My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, The Twilight Saga, Glee, Or Jersey Shore, but media that was forgotten more quickly by the masses like I Love You, Man, Whitney, Escape from Planet Earth or Hop. Its depictions of celebrities are also pretty dated, making fun of Justin Bieber when he was still a teenage heartthrob, Lady Gaga when she was known for her weird outfits, and Kristen Stewart's stoic attitude back when she was only known as Bella Swan. Its recurrent gushing over Megan Fox didn't age too well either, as her status and career would fade by the mid-2010s. The most striking example would be the final episode, which contained an extended parody of the sitcom We Are Men. That episode aired on December 2, 2013... almost two months after the sitcom it was based on ended, having crashed and burned after only two episodes
