Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mad TV recurring characters
my default attitude would be Delete just because I don't see a single citation at the bottom of the article, and leave it there.  But at the risk of plunging into an |Other Stuff Exists debate, I should mention there's an extensive collection of articles regarding recurring characters and sketches related to Saturday Night Live (List_of_recurring_Saturday_Night_Live_characters_and_sketches|big example here). It strikes me as this is very much an apples-to-apples comparison.  I assume the editors who spun off the SNL pages (and there are many of them) created sub-pages for brevity on the main page, combined with a notability justification based on the show itself.  I mention this because...MadTV has an article that is clearly about a notable subject, and this sub looks like a spinoff that probably happened for the same reason.  This needs inline citations, this needs links to article about the recurring characters, this needs footnotes about the show...no question of any of that.  But I don't think this is a deletion without some conversation about whether sketch comedy shows as a whole should have subpages about content details
