      Robert H After watching so many of these in a row, this is probably the point where the sameness of the jokes becomes a bit tiresome. And yet, I still found plenty of opportunities to laugh. I watched FULL HOUSE and AMERICA'S FUNNIEST HOME VIDEOS growing up, so I'm pretty familiar with Bob Saget's work. His raunchy standup, not so much. A lot of the humor hinged on scatology and profanity, as Comedy Central is wont to do, but I laughed at least once for each dais member. The only one that really stood out in a negative way was Norm Macdonald who, if not bombing unintentionally, still did some rather awkward Kaufman-esque performance art that I didn't appreciate very much. Overall, I felt the writing wasn't on par with previously viewed Comedy Central roasts (especially Bob Saget's closing segment), but there were enough comedic nuggets that I didn't feel like my time was wasted. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/11/16 Full Review Daniel M It was good, but the guests didn't really entertain as much as the other roasts I've seen. It still gets a three because there were many funny moments. 3/5 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/26/15 Full Review i C Some nasty jokes in there, one of the better roasts Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/15/14 Full Review Phi N I thought this was the worst of the 3 Roasts I've seen. I think the version I watched on netflix might have been cut/shortened though. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/23/12 Full Review Shawn M Just okay...some good rips, but it's so scripted it's hard to get to the laugh-out-loud phase... Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/13/12 Full Review Chad D As funny and raunchy as these things get. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/01/12 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
