Overall, not that great.
It had it's moments, though.
Why the **** did they let Norm McDonald out of his cage?

I've gotta give the girl credit...she's 82 but looks 65. I'd hit it. She is also ******* hilarious. "I can't believe I shaved for this." "I was trained in the live theater. I improvised, no script or director; just me and the donkey."

John Stamos just made out with her. Lucky, lucky man.

Kinda ironic that he was reading the funnies to humor himself while the other roasters were doing their thing on stage and his act was completely lame. You could even spot Jim Norton muttering "what the ****?"

The funniest one I've seen is the roast of Flavor Flav...Greg Giraldo was hysterical and I never realized that Katt Williams was so funny. Not only did they tear apart Flav, they also ripped apart the very pumped-up Carrot Top and the very strange Brigitte Nillson.

Cloris Leachman absolutely killed. I can't figure out if Norm MacDonald was bombing on purpose or if he's just that bad...

Norm was trying to make a point. The jury is still out on what that exactly that "point" was supposed to be. Hatred towards roasts in general? Annoyance with insult comedy? Why even do a roast to begin with if that's the case?
Cloris and Giraldo were obviously the highlights...

I enjoyed the Pam Anderson much better but it wasn't that bad.
I got to give props to Gottfried too.

Something from ComedyCentral.com.

10. Jeffrey Ross: Is it true you used to give Mary-Kate acting lessons? He'd tell her, "Act like this never happened." She'd be like, "You got it, dude."

9. John Stamos: What a tough gig [America's Funniest Home Videos] must've been, huh? His entire job consisted of saying, "Take a look at this," which is what he used to say to Mary-Kate Olsen in her dressing room.

8. Brian Posehn: Jodie Sweetin's in the crowd. Remember her? Yeah. I can't point her out, but she's the "Full House" girl that isn't a crazy Christian or a ****** on a stick.

7. Jeffrey Ross: Actually, Mary-Kate and Ashley were supposed to be here tonight, but they heard there was gonna be food.

6. Susie Essman: Bob spends more times on his knees after a big audition than Mary-Kate does after a big meal.

5. Sarah Silverman: I heard that Bob Saget calls his balls "The Olsen twins." And that's actually-- I know for a fact that's not true, because he calls them Michelle.

4. Jeffrey Ross: "Full House" should've been called "Blackjack," 'cause he hit on the Olsens when they were eight. He didn't stop till they were 21.

3. Gilbert Gottfried: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen walk into a bar. They say to the bartender, "Give us two @%!-hurts." The bartender says, "How do you make an @%! hurt?" The Olsen twins say, "Well, Bob Saget hands you a chocolate milk that he just made, and you wake up three hours later lying on your stomach.

2. Jeff Garlin: The other day-- after all these years, I've never met the Olsen twins. He introduced me to them. I hadn't seen them since they were kids. I never met them. I said to him, "How do I tell them apart?" He says, "Ashley swallows."

1. Greg Giraldo: The Olsens are like Tom Green's testicles-- they look the same, but one is fake and empty inside, and the other one's been licked by Heath Ledger. It's-- he'd be cool with it, %%!$*$!.

Was it a Saget roast or just an excuse to make tired Olsen twin jokes for a few hours? Lame.

And we get it, Saget worked blue and yet was America's goofy dad. His comedy always sucked. I swear to god America's funniest home videos was consistently more entertaining and funny than Bob Saget's stand up routine.
