We had some laughs but for both my husband and me, Tom Brady ruined his reputation with his speech at the end with all his GOATing and cursing, we've lost a bit of respect for him. He has this nice, good ole boy reputation and to hear him using the f-word so much and being so arrogant was disappointing. Although, he did shake his head and wince when there were a few Giselle jokes. The f-bomb was dropped way too much by all except Peyton Manning (who was funny). I'm no religious priss, I can swear like a sailor but there were way too many f-bombs, and especially by Kevin Hart. Ben Affleck just looked like a rambling idiot. And as everyone else has complained, it was 3.5 hours, way too long!

Overall there were some high points to this roast especially Nikki who smashed it but Kevin Hart is absolutely awful makes it all about him, Are we not bored of this guy laughing more at his own jokes than anyone else? Truly awul comedian and the joke about him being the Rocks fleshlight was the only good thing about him being there. Shame Tom had to go to Jeff Ross in the middle also. Decent but way better roasts out there! Save yourself time and just watch the highlights on YouTube easily shave off a good hour of drivel! Most of the people on the stage didn't even get roasted too many people for a roast in my opinion and it just tends to fall flat most of the time.

My god what a terrible way to spend your time. Could not make it through the first 30 minutes. I guess it was great for the people that were attending the thing... for all the times anyone with a mic said what a great show and what great people were hosting, roasting or just sitting on a privileged chair. But if it only serves the attendees, why even air it. It had no content, just a lot of swearing. It had no jokes, just a bunch of kindergarten blablabla. Roasts are supposed to be edgy, sharp and with some references to Tom's career or personal life. Not just a series of random insults he probably gets on Twitter (or X, whatever) every day. A missed opportunity to have a bit of fun at Tom's expense. This stuff was just trashy. And the fact that Tom stood up 25 minutes in and had to have his 'Will Smith' moment made it even worse. Two thumbs down.

I came into this expecting to hate this, and even when trying to remain as subjective as possible, I find it hard to shake that preconceived notion from my current viewing. Kevin Hart delivered strongly as a host. He punched hard and consistently without ever crossing the line (despite what Tom might say). The roasters were a mixed bag but generally the jokes hit. The NFL roasters could be expected to not be top tier comedians and generally they didn't deliver. On a side note I found Peyton Manning on other roasts to be genuinely hilarious. Seeing real comedians kill Bert was also heart warming. It's good to see you can't slip into comedy and be respected by your peers. Thoroughly enjoyable generally and exceeding expectations.

This brings back memories of previous roasts, especially reminded me of roasters like Greg Giraldo, Anthony Jeselnik, Amy Schumer, Sarah Silverman, etc. The comedians and athletes did a great job of roasting Tom Brady. My top three were Nikki Glaser, Tony Hinchcliffe, and Andrew Schulz, who were incredible and reminiscent of the comedian roasters I listed above. Sure, there were parts I didn't like, I don't know that any show or movie that exists where I liked 100% of them, but that wouldn't make me give less of a star. For example, I wouldn't give movies like Pulp fiction or Goodfellas less of a score because some small parts were a little slow, because as a whole, they were incredible. That's the same reason I'm giving this a 10. Because as a whole, all three hours, were amazing. While some parts were a little slow and i wanted to fast forward but couldn't since it was live, I haven't laughed that hard at anything in a long time. A couple of people who got on stage were dull and one special guest Ben Affleck was particularly angry, but I couldn't believe how funny it was. It was just like back when Greg Giraldo was ripping into everyone without mercy. I actually think now Nikki Glaser could give him a run for his money, and that's saying something.

My dad and I watched and he was saying comedy is back. Little did he know comedy I has been back and is in its hayday now! From start to finish the comedians and football players sets were top notch. Joke written by the players and actors and jokes written for them hit every step of the way. Nikki Glaser and Tony Bunch life were the best but Gronk and Edlemen were funny as hell. It was nice to see Bill Belichick in there being a good sport and Robert Kraft speaking so highly of the man the myth the legend THE GOAT Tom Brady. He was such a good sport listening all night while getting absolutely roasted!

As a fan of the comedy Central roasts I was stoked to see them making a comeback with the roast of Tom Brady Jeff Ross is Jeff Ross - the only work he can't get are roasts but he does a fine job. Nothing special but it wouldn't be a roast without him Nikki Glaser had a great set, and helped carry the show But the true star of this was Tony hinchcliffe, joke after joke after joke like a machine gun and every single one landed. By far the best set of the night and it made the whole special for me Kevin Hart does an okay job hosting but he's just not funny, and he brought the show down for it. There were a couple surprises like Ron Burgundy (will Ferrell) and Kim Kardashian delivering a few solid jokes. Overall it wasn't terrible, but too much of it fell flat. There were a few standout moments that made it worth watching but I'd only ever go back to watch Tony & Nikki. Hope to see more roasts, and hopefully see Tony hosting!
