via Jeff Ross — ‘Dark Knight’ Massacre Joke CUT from ‘Comedy Central Roast’ | TMZ.com.
Ross — who came to the event dressed like Joe Paterno, accompanied by two young topless boys — has been under fire for cracking the following zinger, directed at Seth Green:
“Seth, congratulations. This is actually a great night for you … you haven’t gotten this much attention since you shot all those people in Aurora. … I’m kidding. You are not like James Holmes. At least he did something in a movie theater that people remember!”
It’s good that there are at least *some* lines that Comedy Central will not cross (i.e., broadcast.) However, it would be better if they would simply stop their “roast” series for a bunch of liberal, washed-up has-beens. I don’t find anything remotely funny about these series.
BTW, the only Comedy Central show I watch is Futurama. All the other recent CC shows I’ve seen are simply not funny.
OMG
Is that a pic of Roseanne?
That is not the one SHE built.
That is something built by a dozen plastic Docs and three airbrush artists in the printshop!
Comedy Central is neither Comedic or Centrist, they have trouble climbing up to the curb.
