I mostly ignore the roasts. I always try to catch Gilbert Gottfried if he's on one. Greg Giraldo was usually great. And the one Norm MacDonald performance was classic.
I only scanned through the Sheen roast for one reason, and boy did Patrice Oneal come through. He was as funny as (funnier than) anybody I've seen in a roast. His humor has a precision and accuracy that is more genuinely cutting than the typical sarcasm-tinged insult from the standard roast comedian.
Anyone who has never heard his former radio show should immediately search for the Black Phillip Show on youtube or download a Black Phillip Show torrent. 9/21/2011 11:35:26 PM |

Didn't care about anyone but Patrice O'Neal.
A lot worse comedian spread than normal I'd say. And the whole Mike Tyson thing... god I can't even stand to listen to him, I cringe just at how awkward he is, annoying as shit to listen to. Courtney Love made more sense and was more entertaining in former roasts than Tyson. 9/22/2011 3:32:53 AM |

that blonde chick was fuckin NUTS
i thought she was awesome, amy something
Also the jokes on Patrice throughout the night were brutal
the actual roast of charlie outside of the german guy was pretty lame. Mike Tyson was the funniest thing, just because of his reactions to the potshots, the guy just loves life man. Tyson is my idol, even though i cant understand him

I thought it was worth watching but I definitely wouldn't try to see it again. As far as roasts go I would say it was pretty weak overall but there were a few brutal lines here and there. My favorite had to be Tyson making fun of Seth MacFarlane taking from Homer. 9/22/2011 9:32:41 AM |

pretty sure sheen himself owned the shit out of everyone else who attempted to roast him by saying the same damn thing over and over again
the thing about wringing clean piss out of shatners diaper was hilarious 9/22/2011 10:19:15 AM |

jeselnik and amy schumer owned this one.
i thought partrice was pretty boring, honestly. not clever at all.
tyson is borderline retarded; he didn't get half the jokes that were about him.

I will say the only part I didnt care for was Steve-O.
Jokes were lame, and the black eye stunt was just stupid as hell. Felt out of place. 9/22/2011 11:56:27 AM |

I thought this was one of the worst roasts ever. Maybe a few chuckles but pretty horrible overall. 9/22/2011 1:57:40 PM |

It was funny and entertaining enough. That being said, it definitely was the lamest dais of all the roasts I've seen. All the jokes directed at patrice o'neal were really fucked up, even for a roast, and at some points it looked like he was genuinely pissed off. Amy schumer would be really hot if not for her little muskrat face. Oh, and the chick from private practice is bangin.
William Shatner was great. Mike Tyson was not, and also he's clinically insane

I just saw the highlights, mcfarlene seemed like he was on fire, I was getting kind of sick of lampenelli but that chubby blonde nobody didn't really have her presence although she did have a few hilarious ones like the shit about sheen's kids and that hitler youth joke really cracked me up for some reason 9/22/2011 11:18:23 PM |

it's disapointing to see a whole long list of writers in the credits, I wonder what kind of input the celebrity guests have at all 9/23/2011 2:38:22 PM |

apparently no one knew or cared to know this when they blasted the situation for "his" bad jokes
Selective attribution at its best

I had never seen Jeselnik before but thought he had the most scathing and funny jokes. I think he just came up with that "no one has ever said too few black people" right off the top of his head which had me rolling more than anything scripted. 9/23/2011 3:32:29 PM |

damn. i had no idea the celebs weren't writing their own jokes. well, i figured tyson was getting some help, but the comedians, too? weak 9/23/2011 3:36:23 PM |

Just watched this and agree with most of the thoughts on here. Jeselnik was definitely my favorite. Steve-O was terrible and Mike Tyson is so awkward to watch. 9/23/2011 11:30:11 PM |

i think everyone busted situation on his delivery and arrogrance as much as for the joke quality. everyone knew he wasnt writing jokes.9/24/2011 2:28:46 PM |
