Favorite roast comedians/acts

[youngsteinel]

I put Jeff Ross and Greg Giraldo as 1a and 1b in the roasting aspect. In terms of random acts, Martha Stewart had a really funny roast in the last couple years. Who are your guy's favorites?

When Norm Macdonald roasts someone

 

[Joe]

Anything from the comedy central roast of Chevy chase. What a brutal night. Holy shit.

Greg Giraldo roasting Flava Flav was awesome. Norm on Bob Sagat was also great.

 

[Mark Cutting]

Giraldo and Ross. Even Whitney Cummings is funny. Pizza Lampanelli, too.

 

[GearSolidMetal]

Greg Geraldo is the #1 GOAT roaster, with Jeff Ross a damn close 2nd.

Rather than post clips of them, let me post a clip from an uncommon roast from an uncommon roaster.



And this clip is even funnier now after it was revealed they had a fling...

 

[Curmudgeon]

Always loved Ross. Geraldo had his moments(had!), but came off like one of those "maybe if I scream my jokes they'll be funny",type comedians/roasters. I think a lot of people like him out of sympathy because he's dead.

Greg Giraldo

 

[Rum]

Giraldo was the king.

Love Norm too.

 

[Kraysla]

Greg Giraldo was the best and it wasn't even close. Anthony Jeselnik is good, too.

They have that roast battle now, where comedians battle each other face to face

That show is fucking cringeworthy. It’s like they saw that shitty show with the lip sync battles with fuckin LL cool j and thought hey let’s do that with insult jokes.

Why can’t they just fuckin bring back tough crowd and let real comedians do what they do without any fuckin gimmicks.

I've watched it, it's pretty horrible and unfunny.

I could never really get into the roasts that much, used to really enjoy listening to Patrice O’neal casually roast numerous people on Opie and Anthony.

Here’s a really good clip of him laying into a woman at one of his comedy shows

 

[Daveb]

Patrice at the Charlie sheen roast is incredible

 

[BudKing8806]

Anthony Jeselnik was my favorite just due to his dark humor.

 

[mb23100]

Jon Lovitz roasting Charlie Sheen was great

 

[Ignicious]

I've watched it, it's pretty horrible and unfunny.

What makes it worse is those stupid, corny The Wave. Man I'd love to give them a couple of bullets

 

[Higus]

Rob Lowe's Roast was funny because it was really more about Anne Coulter.

 

[MoparOrNoCar]

Giraldo's joke about Ralphie May and the pizza at about 1:16 is my all time favorite roast bit.
