The fourteenth season of ''Mad TV'', an American sketch comedy series, originally aired in the United States on the Fox Network between September 13, 2008, and May 16, 2009. In November 2008, it was announced that after 14 years on FOX, ''Mad TV'' would be cancelled at the end of the 2008-2009 season. Despite this, producer David Salzman promised that ''Mad TV'' would be revived and put on cable television.
