People who deserve the roast more than Sheen.

There are so many people who deserve the honor more than this tabloid has-been junkie. Aren't roasts supposed to be reserved for legends?

Here would be my picks:

Comedians
Louis CK
Chris Rock
Jerry Seinfeld
Dave Chappelle
Bill Maher
Eddie Murphy
Jeff Ross
Jon Stewart
Lewis Black
Ricky Gervais
Betty White
Gilbert Gottfried

Other Legendary Entertainers
Robert Evans
Will Ferrell
Mel Brooks
Samuel L Jackson
Matt Groening
Robert Deniro
Hulk Hogan
Sean Connery
Chuck Norris
Stan Lee
Kevin Smith
Arnold Schwarzeneggar

Obviously not all roasts would be of the same caliber, but at least it would be better than picking out tabloid d-bags.

It's very likely that at least one of these guys were already roasted at the Friars' Club.

Donald Trump was already roasted at the Friars' Club

Yeah, it seems lately that they are choosing people who are in the limelight and easy targets.

Sheen is a legend.....and i agree with the list of other actors/actress that deserve to be roasted.....that people has listed on the post.

[–] big_show2000us 13 years ago

Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle would be the best. So far the Sheen roast is doing to bad, it's probably gonna stumble with Mike Tyson, Shatner, or that new guy with a J last name.

If you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.

Betty White? Are you *beep* serious? She does NOT deserve to be roasted. Just because everyone has got a huge erection for her lately, doesn't warrant a roast.

Who are you?! I'm the Doctor!!

George Lucas, with the original Star Wars cast as roasters! Make it happen, Comedy Central.

[–] the_Riddling-joker 13 years ago

no but that remindes me Harrison Ford

kiefer sutherland would be funny

George Lucas, very nice! (although himself wouldn't be fun a bit)

My suggestion:
JJ Abrams!

Bring more of that Seth MacFarlane: "I loved Star Trek, before it started to look like a bunch of gay-guys working at the Mac-store!"

Jack Nicholson, or
Robert DeNiro

Because both of them got intro ridiculous low roles comparing previous movies

Louis CK, Chris Rock, Chappelle, Murphy, Stewart, Black, and Gervais are all too famous and talented to be seen on a Comedy Central Roast.

The primary reason this roast was made was to go up against the season premiere of 2 & 1/2 Men. Besides, Charlie's body of work in film & TV would be the equivalent of Flava Flav's body of work in music; who also got a roast. Of course, the roast sucked out loud without Lisa Lampanelli.
