Get rid of "The Wave"
brig1313 July 2019
Those dorks ruin the show. Most comedians won't do the show because of them. Make it stop Jeff.

Laffed my ass off

The best comic smack down I have ever seen!

Everything goes just perfectly! And funny stuff thrown out so fast you can't keep up. When jokes are bad they are bad but the jokes that are funny tip the scale to success.

The entire series is worth watching for - "The Wave"! These three guys have more energy than a meteor. They made the show and kept the pace at a frantic level which created excitement for the audience.

I'm into the 3rd season and still can't get enough! And "The Wave" is brilliant as ever.

You like off color comedy? Then watch this series.

Not for The Sensitive

Warning: Spoilers
Superb comedy show from the U.S., from the Comedy Central network. hosted by Jeff Ross, who takes up as the position of head Judge, comedians known and unknown, face each other and let the the roasting begin. It can be brutal,, which would greatly offend some people but not a heartless cynic like me. I can't get enough of the show after discovering when trying to find more of the Comedy Central Roasts to watch, which I adore. I would say that some of the Roast Battles are more brutal than the Celebrity Roasts.

Anyway, the battles are compared by the lovely Brian Moses and Jeff, as Head Judge, is helped by a different Celebrity guest panel each show. The show is also the home of THE WAVE, a hybrid sketch/prop comedy troupe, who pop up on stage during the roast battle, either if the comedians roast has gone well or sucked. They do some remarkably quick costume changes and are lead by the brilliant and utterly gorgeous Jamar Neighbors.

I hope there is a third season and it doesn't get cut short like Jeff Ross' other show 'The Burn'.

More of Ross' commie agenda

90 percent of the roasters are gay and Ross always makes sure you know. Because that's what's important in comedy, sexual preference. Stand up comedy is dead.

Weak Tea
reachkiramurphy30 September 2018
This show has weak roasters reading weak jokes at each other. Most of the jokes are ones you already heard or can see coming a mile away. Jeff Ross seems like he is just cashing in here or maybe he is just getting old and running out of good jokes. I don't recognize hardly any of these comedians and pretty much none of them are funny, most of them just use swearing and sex as a crutch to try to be "shocking" but fail. Too bad because roasts used to be great.
