The TVI Take

Netflix's second live-broadcast roast, Shane Gillis hosting, Hart on the dais, with sets from The Rock, Katt Williams, Tom Brady, Lizzo, Pete Davidson, and Sheryl Underwood, whose unfiltered run earned a standing ovation. The production values match the spectacle the format demands, but the live-broadcast constraint produces an uneven hit rate: a handful of constructed bits land, the rest dies in the safety net of celebrity goodwill.

Best watched in highlight form rather than as a full ninety minutes.
