Michael McDonald
Michael McDonald holds the title for the longest run of the current cast, now entering his tenth season. Over the years, MAD fans have grown to love Michael's wide-ranging menagerie of odd-ball characters including the beleaguered Arab tow-truck driver Mofaz, the overbearing Hollywood fat-so Marvin Tikvah, and of course the endlessly irritating and amusing man-child Stuart.
An in-demand comic actor whenever he isn't shooting MADtv, Michael has appeared on numerous television shows including "Desperate Housewives," Kirstie Alley's "Fat Actress," "Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List," "Lovespring International," "Seinfeld," "Ellen," "NewsRadio" and "The Chelsea Handler Show." He had recurring roles on long-running series "Scrubs" and "Seventh Heaven."
Michael's film credits include appearances in all three "Austin Powers" films, as well as a starring role in the upcoming independent feature "Moonpie." In addition to acting on MADtv, Michael also writes and directs for the show. His other directing credits include episodes of "Seventh Heaven" and "Scrubs."
Last Christmas Michael, along with Kathy Griffin, performed for the troops in Iraq.
