"Mad's Video Reviews" delivers Dave Berg’s signature satirical wit in a sharp, self-aware skewering of modern life’s absurdities—from office politics to marriage, fashion to travel, and everything in between. Written, drawn, and inked by Berg himself, this 1991 issue offers a sardonic, perfectly paced take on the cultural quirks of the era, all framed through the lens of a mock video review format. The cover by Richard Williams captures the tone with a deadpan, ironic flair.
