Tonight at 10p on Comedy Central Roseanne is finally going to get what has been coming to her for a very long time and let’s just say she gives it as good as she takes it.
During the Comedy Central Roast of Roseanne Jane Lynch, Carrie Fisher, Katey Sagal, Ellen Barkin, Seth Green, Wayne Brady, Gilbert Gottfried, Jeffrey Ross, Amy Schumer and Anthony Jeselnik come together to honor the Sitcom Goddess. And as she says Comedy Central needs to look up the word honor because what they say about her isn’t exactly honorable, but it is very funny. There are so many jabs that the Roasters use on each other that you will be using them on your friends after you watch it. In fact this tamer Roast is the best one of them all because it is funny and mean, but not that mean. That is something that has kind of dampened the feel of the last few Roasts.
The surprise of the night comes when her ex-husband Tom Arnold was a last minute addition. At first he has us in stitches, but then he says something so sweet that you will be a fan of his forever. Personally I think that even though both of them are with other people, that they are going to hook up again. It is that sentimental.
Then just as you like awwww how sweet, Gilbert Gottfried will change the mood into one of a laugh out riot. They saved the best for last with him, but Ellen Barkin really gives him a run for her money with routine. Who knew she was so hilarious?
Actually all the roasters did a great job on tonight’s Comedy Central Roast of Roseanne at 10p, so don’t miss a single second of it or Roseanne will come to your house and sing the national anthem!
