Why were Baywatch reruns shown on Comedy Central last week, now that the Hoff Roast has aired they stopped showing them.

If you have CC they'll be playing it about 8 times a day for the rest of the week.
I believe you can see clips on comedycentral.com too

Norm's set on Saget was hilarious. I got the feeling that he was doing it just to make 1 or 2 people laugh and to hell with everyone else.
I can imagine Bob Saget saying to Norm before the show 'I bet you $5 that you wont go up there and badly deliver the worst one liners in history for your entire set'... and Norm left $5 richer.

Does anyone take anything at face value anymore? I don't believe it for a second. I think Norm came to the roast totally unprepared and just winged it. Did you also notice the minimal, almost sympathetic laughter there was during his set? Not only from the audience, but from the other roasters and Bob Saget?
Even IF that was the intended purpose, it was terribly unfunny.

The only two good roasters over the past few years are Greg Giraldo and Jeff Ross, everyone else usually sucks because they aren't comedians and can't deliver a good joke.
And Lisa Lampanelli's schtick has gotten old on these roasts. Ok, we get it, you have a big vagina and you f*** black guys. It was funny in the first roast a few years back, but its the same shit everytime now.
I still love Giraldos joke on George Hamilton, "You're like Tang, you're orange, and nobody has given a shit about you since the 1970's!"

I don't know what is tiring me out the most...the jokes about Lisa Lampanelli that are the same retread jokes over and over again or the fact that she laughs uproariously at each one as if is a new and brilliant joke she heard for the first time. It's about as annoying as Kevin Eubanks when he's laugh at every stupid thing Jay Leno said.

I believe it is a totally contrived laugh when she falls out of her seat after every joke about her. That way she can show she has a sense of humor and nothing bothers her. Now if she really thinks the same joke over and over are that hysterical, then she really is a lame comic.

Finally got a chance to watch this earlier. It was alright, but nothing amazing. I did lose it when Cummins told Pam Anderson to drink Magic Johnson's blood..and then tell Hogan to have his daughter do the same 
Giraldo was good as I expected, KITT's appearance was awesome. Lampaneli needs to just fall off the earth already, her laughs every few seconds were so fucking annoying. Why all the gay jokes on Hogan? Im surprised they didnt go the steroid-path or incest-path.
I wonder who the next z-lister will be to get roasted... maybe Lindsay Lohan?? If shes still alive by that time.

Saw the Whitney Cummings stand up special last night on Comedy central. She looks much, much prettier on that stand up than when she appeared on the Hoff's roast. Plus, her set was actually very funny!

I was pretty disappointed with her one hour show. I expected a lot of extremely daring, off color comedy like she delivers on roasts and she used to deliver on "Chelsea Lately", but most of her act was typical men-and-women-are-different schtick. It certainly wasn't bad, but I was hoping for much more.

I didn't think this was as good as some of the past ones but my god, Gilbert Gottfried's turn was hilarious.

as usual, the people who do this frequently, killed. Lisa, Gilbert, Jeff Ross and Greg Giraldo. Whitney Cummings is slowly creeping up there, too. I'm pissed they cut a ton of her stuff. Pussies at CC.

In the end it doesn't matter, because even if you view his set with that prospective it still sucked.

when i first saw the Norm thing, I thought he was absolutely off his rocker. I didn't find it very funny, but over time his appearance grew on me and I appreciated it more.

I think many of you guys are confusing the Comedy Central Roast with the NY Friar's Club Roast
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_Friars%27_Club
The CC one is just a ripoff of the NY one.
