Friar's Club Roast Of Pamela Anderson

This sucker was about the most hysterical thing I've seen in AGES.
It was bawdy and vicious and I loved every minute of it.

Dissy... Bea Arthur was there, and if you watch it for no other reason, watch it for her! My jaw was dropped the whole time.

My husband and I just finished watching this...we laughed hysterically through the whole thing! I couldn't believe Bea Arthur was even there ~ I just couldn't picture her at something like that! Our favourite was the girl comedian...her name was Lisa Lampanelli ~ both of us laughed through her entire set, especially when she talked about the squirrel in the Crown Royal bag!

And Courtney Love was...amusing...

I'm sure they'll re-run it a MILLION times, so I'll try to catch it.

I loved that joke. But I laughed so hard at pretty much everything (though a couple did fall flat here and there throughout the show).

I can't even remember my favorites though, because the jokes were flying one right after the other.

I hope they run it soon on their Saturday Night Secret Stash. I'd love to see it uncensored.

Oh was it good? I was wondering why they were even roasting her but if anyone has a good sense of humour about herself, it's Pam Anderson. I actually don't mind her at all.

I really hope I catch this at some point...Bea Arthur?!

It's re-running for me right now, I'm about ready to wake up the others in my house from laughing so much.

We watched it at work last night while charting on our patients. It was a riot.

I wasn't going to watch, but happened to surf into it, just as Jeffrey Ross was saying how weird it was that Curt Cobain at present looked *better* than Courtney Love. And I was hooked. I watched the rest of it, then watched the replay, then watched the re-re-play up until Jeffrey Came on again. Just couldn't get enough.

Courtney Love failed her drug test a day after the roast.

Courtney got ripped and ripped on the entire show. She was a good sport about everything except the Curt comment. And during the opening credits, she was listed as "Courtney Love-Cobain". Since when?

Did they record this on July 4th? Sara Silverman said "Happy Birthday America" at the mike...

I really thought she'd get her act together, but I guess not. When she failed the test, the judge said he was going to decide on whether or not to send her up the river for a year. Can't wait to hear his decision.

I don't know when they recorded it, but I have the major hots for Sarah Silverman.

She is genius.

Have you seen the pics.

If not, I will look for them.

Even funnier, since she claimed several times during the show that she'd been clean for a year.

Unless, of course, she fell off the wagon that night!

She's gotten progressively less funny as the years have gone by. I used to like her quite a bit.

In fact, she was the weak spot of last night's show, IMO.
Though she wasn't totally unfunny.
