Comedy central roast where to watch

Comedic genre

A roast is a form of insult comedy, originating in American humor, in which a specific individual, a guest of honor, is subjected to jokes at their expense, as well as genuine praise and tributes.

The assumption is that the roastee can take the jokes in good humor and not as serious criticism or insult. The individual is surrounded by friends, fans, and well-wishers, who can receive some of the same treatment during the evening.

The host of the event is called the roastmaster, since it rhymes with and plays on toastmaster.
