SNL has books, articles all the time on SNL behind the scenes. There was so little focus on Mad TV ever in the media. It was a far inferior show, in my opinion, but I was still a little fascinated on how all these actors who likely audiitoned for SNL and got rejected were making due on this b-level show. Besides, it's still sketch comedy.
Also, who ran the show. The credits don't really indicate much (Quincy Jones was a producer?). Who waws like the Lorne Michaels equivalent.

Artie Lange talks a bit about his time there, in Too Fat to Fish. Mostly about him being a druggy and how it affected his relationships with people there.

That's a good question because I loved MAD TV and even thought it was funnier than SNL, and I'm also a fan of behind-the-scenes stories. I'm not sure if any MAD TV cast member has even written a book about their time on the show, but I could be wrong.
