You will be entertained, in that sense you could consider the show was successful. However, the performances were very uneven, some comedians delivered fantastic sets while others were very poor.

Justin, the main character of the show, does a good job with his set, especially considering he's not used to this type of work. Of course the material was written by seasoned comics in the backroom, but he does his job at reading the jokes with enough commitment.

Kevin Hart is the anchor, he also does a good-enough job. He was not particularly hilarious, but then again, I rarely expect him to be. He's more of a Hollywood-safe actor playing funny guy than a real comedian in the classic sense.

Some of the best performers were Jeff Ross, Natasha Leggero, and Hannibal Buress, with solid jokes and memorable punchlines. Among the artists Snoop Dogg and Shaquille O'Neal were arguably the best, probably due to their natural comedic characters and also because they have been part of this type of show before.

As I've mentioned before, I've already seen a bunch of these Comedy Central roasts, but this is one I saw tonight for the first time. I laughed until I physically hurt and cried. Unlike the two most recent ones I watched (Donald Trump and Rob Lowe), everyone brought their A-game, even if they weren't all at the same level. Singling out two, Natasha Leggero (who I hadn't heard of before this) and Shaq were the surprises to me. Natasha for how brutal she got, and Shaq for doing something I wasn't aware he could do effectively, i.e., deliver jokes (that were pretty funny as well). Most surprising inclusion was Martha Stewart, who also did well for a non-comedian. All in all, I liked that pretty much every dais member went for the jugular, even if they ended their mic time by saying how much they liked Bieber. I mean, they only roast the ones they love, right? Really the only downside was the last-minute decision (undoubtedly pre-planned) to turn this into a sort-of personality rehab. Whatever happened to insulting people for the heck of it? Nobody's perfect, after all. I don't want to see someone try to exorcize their demons publicly. Anyway, similar to what Hannibal Buress said, I don't like his music. Never have. However, this 90-minute-ish roast with a willing participant who enjoyed himself was time and money well-spent.
