Roast of Larry the Cable Guy

I've been looking forward to this since I first heard it was going to be on.  The Roast of Larry the Cable Guy aired tonight at 10pm on Comedy Central.  The panel was Zac Brown, Gary Busey, Reno Collier, Nick DiPaolo, Jeff Foxworthy, Toby Keith, Maureen McCormick, Jeffrey Ross, Warren Sapp and Lisa Lampanelli as the Roastmaster.

I kinda felt sorry for Maureen McCormick because of the jokes towards her but she took it like a man.  She was very raunchy and I thought she did the best job in this roast.

Gary Busey was.... well, himself.  Although he was funny.  He was pretending like he wasn't himself and so he was telling Gary Busey jokes lol.  Hey, if you can't laugh at yourself then you have no sense of humor.

Bill Engvall phoned in his performance.  It was a video, he couldn't even take the time out of his life to show up to the roast of one of his friends.  That's ok.

I love these Roasts, I remember watching them as a kid with Lucille Ball as a roaster and Dean Martin and Don Rickles.  Those were the days.  But, back then you couldn't say a lot of words you can say today.  Although, they say a lot of words you still can't say on TV but they just bleep it out.  I watch every roast when they have them if I know about it.  I don't watch Comedy Central as much as I used to because I'm always on Sci-Fi channel so when I do see a Roast commercial I make time to watch it.
