I do love a good roast, thus- in my lazy Memorial Day, I decided to watch this. I am now three episodes in and I can't help but feel embarrassed for this. The material just falls flat, sure I may have laughed a time or two, but those few and far between moments are overthrown by the cringe worthy humor, and not in a good way. Sure comedy has many tastes, but this is just not something I would recommend to anyone. The formula of a roast just doesn't work when the honorable guest is a comedian in costume. The roast formula works when the guest must sit there and be bombarded by embarrassing jokes and continue on. This is just rough to watch, and if you enjoy a good roast, look elsewhere.
