    Actually, Pete Davidson (snl kid) was on Artie Lange's podcast recently and they talked about the ludacris/paul walker joke. Pete mentioned the 9/11 joke and said he was perfectly fine with it. Because hes a comic and understands the territory that comes with a roast. Paul Walker was famous and Pete's dad is not so thats probably why they took it out.

    Speaking of Ludacris, did he not know what was going to happen? He hardly laughed at any of the jokes about himself and looked like he forced some fake laughs whenever he did laugh.

    i didnt catch the very end...but it was pretty meh roast imo.

    why shaq/luda/martha? makes no sense. just stick with comedians...people will still watch.

    schumer has been on in the past, jeselnik. both would have killed it. granted maybe both said nah...but go get comedians.

    There hasn't been a real "roast" since Greg Giraldo died. Everything now is just a giant circlejerk.

    No love for "Justin's *ss is like a movie ticket because it was ripped apart by an Usher"? Thought that was one of the best lines.

    I thought Leggero was the only one who killed. Martha was pretty good as a wildcard. Ross was strong. Burress, the SNL kid were pretty good.

    Snoop was average.

    Shaq, Luda, D'elia or whatever his name was were all bad.

    Score card:

    Leggero A- (Nearly flawless)
    Ross B (Strong, but not his best)
    Martha B- (She did pretty well for a wild card)
    SNL kid B- (Opened up pretty well)
    Burress C+ (Only because he actually went after Biebs)
    Snoop C (It was ok)
    Burgandy C (Could have been better)
    D'Elia D+ (meh)
    Shaq D+ (Jokes were bad, delivery not good)
    Ludacris D (Jokes were bad, personality bland, only reason he doesn't get a lower grade is because The Situation set the bar so low.)

    Actually thought Kevin Hart calling out Snoop for lumping him in with "us people" was pretty hilarious.

    Leggero and Ross were really good. I thought Kevin Hart was funny. Shaq sucked during his routine, but he was a pretty nice prop for some killer jokes from the other comedians. D'Elia tried to hard and flopped. Ludacris told jokes that weren't funny in 6th grade. And snoop, well he did about as well as you'd expect him too.

    And I hated the Ron Burgundy thing. Not funny at all.

    There are a few of us on this board (I'm specifically looking at you Deckard and B-Bob) who remember the Dean Martin celebrity roasts. Much better than anything nowadays and celebrities had no qualms about being roasted. For a list, click here:

    Some of you people are so old. "Back in my day we knew how to roast, we walked 15 miles uphill both ways and then flogged the roastee. Women and minorities weren't allowed to show up, yada yada yada"...

    It was funny for the most part. I think what I was impressed by is that the Biebs seemed to be loving the entire thing. I hate his music, and I'm not fond of him personally, but I have to say this thing did a lot to make me see him in a different light. Also, we get it, Kevin Hart is short, come up with some new jokes.

    well, he was getting attention so I'm sure he was loving it. I don't really think he cares what type of attention he gets so long as he gets it.

    I feel like it was 50% sincere, 50% PR. His speech at the end sounded really sincere to me, maybe it was all smoke.

    I didn't watch it...I don't know, but I did hear David Arquette's story on Howard about how he flicked a bottle cap at the back of his head for no reason at an after party. Granted the story is from a kooky person.
