From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Spishak is a fictitious corporation, which advertises their products in commercial parodies on MADtv. Their product line is unpractical and unrealistic, and most of the time, dangerous. They have not been mentioned in the recent seasons of the show however. They are also not the sole supplier in the MADtv world, for example, there also exists Toolco and Skaiser Permanente from the Paul Timberman's Workshop sketches. Several of the sketches share a near identical kitchen set, and others include the Spishak jingle. Spishak is similar in many regards to Peenman Enterprises, a fictitious company created by Phil Hendrie.

There have been three Spishak spokesmen, Phil LaMarr, Pat Kilbane and Josh Meyers.

Past, and possibly current products, include:

• Namprin and Extra Strength Namprin Plus - OTC painkiller medicine that is ineffective and over-effective, respectively

• Supersops - Cheap paper towels that fall apart

• Ultra Super w/ XP-21 - Dirt/grease/brain-stain remover; Spishak's first completely successful product
