Comedy Central Roast of Joan Rivers

Back in my youth when the "Rat Pack" would have a Celebrity Roast it was funny. My parents would even allow me to see them. Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Joey Bishop and other famous stars back in the day had incredible wit as comedians. I used to love Sid Ceaser, Carol Burnett, Red Skelton, Lucille Ball, Abbott and Costello and other greats. Those were the times when a person could sit back, relax and have a hardy laugh.

Last night I watched the Comedy Central Roasting of Joan Rivers. I haven't watched a "roast" in ages and thought this might be some fun. This show was the most disturbing, disgusting and racist show that I have EVER seen on tv. It was created of four letter words, making fun of Robin Quiver's being molested by her father as a young child, The most hideous jokes about parts of the body, and again making fun of Sarah Palin's daughter. "Joan River's has had more lifts than ____Palin's dress on prom night. My gosh... our country talks about Racism and bigotry, yet we allow comedians to talk like this?

Robin Quiver's laughed and laughed as they made fun of her color, sexuality, job, and any other racist remark that the comedians could come up with. I can't believe that this woman who was traumatized over her father molesting her as a child, was crucified about the situation by many of the comedians and giggled about it. How sad. How demented. So ever pervert who likes to hurt little children figure..."Oh yeah, this is fun and funny!" Lives are destroyed by children being sexually abused and many are our homeless, institutionalized, addicts and ruined for life. Oh yeah...this is so funny. What is wrong with these people? What is wrong with Robin Quivers?

Granted this is a roast, yet the amount of total disrespect for people, their looks, sexuality, and body parts was absolutely appalling.

Every filthy word imaginable was used in this show, and there was plenty of gory graphic sexual innuendo's --mostly from the freaky, squinty-eyed Gilbert Gottfried, who I guess is such a has-been that he needed attention and longer time on stage then he usually gets. Somebody please shoot the Afleck duck, in which Gottfried supplies the whiny voice. What a disgusting man he is. He isn't funny. He is just plan sick and perverted.

Carl Reiner-Shame on you! So you were able to say the C-word and the F-word...it was so exciting for you since the Dick Van Dyke show was censored on the word "pregnant" forty years ago. I miss those censorship days and shows as Dick Van Dyke. The writers were creative. Oh can you say the word C R E A T I V E?

The creativity of this Comedy Central show was from the brain of a Nat. Never was I a Kathy Griffen fan. As far as I am concerned she will always be on the D List. Her nasty foul mouth though seems to make her more popular than ever.

Yes, the naysayers can say that I could shut off my television or change the channel. Sure, I can always do that, but with cable bills being sky high, don't I have a right to say how I feel? I don't have HBO or Showtime...etc and would never have them. I am at the point now to cut off my cable all together because I rather read, or write or do something constructive then to watch people be paid huge amounts of money so they can curse profusely on television. Humor in Hollywood today is just plan...how can I say this delicately, GROSS.

Mario Cantone, is a well known gay comedian, but he was mild compared to the heterosexuals. The cracks that were made about him, even had him squirming at times.

Tom Arnold-Roseanne's user ex is still the same low life comedian as ever.

Jeffrey Ross-Was like a school kid in a locker room--constantly giggling at all the filth and almost falling out of his chair.

Greg Giraldo and Whitney Cummings--WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE AND WHAT PLANET DID THEY COME FROM?

Brad Garrett-From his famous "Everybody Loves Raymond" needs to go bury his head, because if anyone watched this show who loved Ray Romano's hit series will never watch a Brad Garrett show again, because he is nothing more than another disgusting rant. Oh yeah, I am no longer a fan.

I never was a fan of any of these comedians, except Joan Rivers. When she first came on stage years ago, she was absolutely hysterical. Now, she is just another over paid, loud-mouthed, foul comedian.

You can see this blatant sewage on www.ComedyCentral.com --People may say because I am a Christian that I am on the warpath, but you know it doesn't matter what religion a person is...FILTH IS FILTH. Plus, I am a not only a Christian but a mother, an American, and a person who values human life. I really miss the old comedians. They made me laugh and even gave hope. This bunch of perverts of Comedy Central demoralize Comedy and what it truly stands for. My gosh, is this the way our country is truly headed? Hollywood has absolutely no respect for children or values. I pray that Comedy Central is ripped from the grasps of cable television with other gross channels and tossed into hell where it belongs.

God bless America. We really need our prosperous country and good values back in our hearts. This is heartbreaking to see what is happening to our youth and our beliefs. Our soldiers are dying every day to up hold what we stand for...yet what DO we stand for? What has happened to the USA?
