With the Roast of Tom Brady happening Sunday night, is it the best one yet?

It's been a long time since there was one. I remember all the comedy central ones from the late 2000s and 2010s. Which would you say was the best?

This one is tough. So not to be partial to the most recent, I'll say the Larry the Cable Guy roast was the funniest.

Out of all of the others, that was the one that had the most consistent laughter. Greg Giraldo had his best roast set that night. Even randoms like Gary Busey were funny.

What others?

The one that Kathy Griffin hosted and Greg Giraldo opened. I think it was for Joan Rivers.

He said Kathy looked like the rape-baby of Ronald McDonald and Wendy after it had been thrown down a flight of stairs.

Then he called her Tranny Bonaduce, which still is gold.

Then he said she is always sad to look at and gets stitched up ever year, like the AIDS quilt.

I miss Greg Giraldo. Not only was he a savage at these roasts, his jokes were hilarious, original, on-target, and mean. It was almost like he went looking for a fight.

Idk but Mike the situation was hands down the biggest bomb in roast history. I honestly can't even rewatch his set from the second hand embarrassment.

Charlie Sheen was probably my facorite, though I also liked Hasselhoff, Saget, Flavor Flav, and Shatner.

Have not seen most of the post-Sheen ones for a variety of reasons.

I know I’m a prude but many are so f bomb filled I can’t watch them. I can handle some of it but not an overload of it. The old Dean Martin ones were classic. The Jerry Stiller Friars roast is really good.

The Pam Anderson roast was by far my favorite & the best I ever watched.

He had the best set every time he was on. Guy was legit smart and it showed in his jokes.

I liked the Flavor Flav, Justin Bieber, Charlie Sheen, David Hasselhoff roasts the best.

I agree with yall about Greg Giraldo he was by far and away the best roaster. My favorite joke to me was when he was talking about Katt Williams at the Flavor Flav Roast, "Man pimping ain't easy especially when you gotta stand on phone books to smack a bitch." I miss him.

Forgot about the James Franco one too.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

It had some real zingers!

Also speaking at the event were Syrian president Bashar al-Assad, Japanese prime minister Yasuo Fukuda, and longtime foreign policy adviser and roast favorite Henry Kissinger, who spent the majority of his speech making sexual overtures to French president Nicolas Sarkozy's bride, model Carla Bruni. Although Bruni was seated in the audience, Kissinger politely offered her a seat on his face so he could get a better look at the only place a French leader has successfully invaded since Lombardy.

I loved how Giraldo would just come out with a piece of notebook paper like he forgot the roast was that day and had to come up with his whole set backstage
