The Comedy Central Roast: Donald Trump — Maybe I’m just bitter because Greg Giraldo’s dead, but I don’t have high hopes for this. Apparently the Situation was so bad that he got booed off stage, and I’m not too excited about investing 90 minutes of time in jokes about a combover. Afterwards, Comedy Central is airing a sneak peek at a new series that it’s keeping under wraps for now.
V (ABC) — Season finale. Let’s just go ahead and call it the series finale, shall we?
Onion SportsDome (Comedy Central) — Season finale. Wait, why does this show have seasons? If people are still playing sports, they need to keep telling jokes. “SportsCenter” doesn’t go on hiatus.
Lights Out (FX) — If FX was going to make a show about a white heavyweight champion, they should have at least set the show in 1933.
Four of a Kind (Lifetime) — Series premiere. The reality show follows 17-year-old quadruplet sisters. Coincidentally, that’s how I got arrested last week.
LATE NIGHT GUESTS: Sophie Monk (yum!) on Chelsea; Bradley Cooper and Mindy Kaling on Letterman; Jane Lynch, David Boreanaz, and Avril Lavigne on Kimmel; and an epic unfunny-off when Wanda Sykes visits Jay Leno. Full listings at TV Squad.

Yay, my imaginary boyfriend and my imaginary BFF are on Letterman!
Workaholics. [www.comedycentral.com]
But Mark Singer is on V tonight! How could it end now?
*sees “Lights Out” on What’s on Tonight list*
*rubs eyes in disbelief*
*sees that “Lights Out” is in fact on the list*
It’s true, Uff is there, and he cares!
/swoons
//still bitter that low ratings probably means only one season for Lights Out
My predictions on funny roasters tonight:
Jeff Ross
Lisa Lampanelli
That is all.
Tuesdays suck for TV, but at least Top Shot is on. Don’t forget, first play in games for the NCAA are on tonight.

OMG, this video is devastating. My heart sank…but read the comments for the twist…
Where did you get the picture of comb-over Shih-Tzu?
List of current heavyweight boxing champions:
WBA David Haye – black
WBC Vitali Klitschko – white
IBF Wladimir Klitschko – white
WBO Wladimir Klitschko – white
Well, I guess it’s 1933 then.
@Patty: Ugh. Your imagination can do better.
If it does turn out to be the series finale for V, thank you very fucking much for showing what a visitor looks like in the fucking FINAL episode.
@Steve Holt!
Jeselnik, in my opinion, killed.
Matlin was decent.
Snoop Dogg can stay.
Fuck The Situation.
@Inter milan kundera: agreed; after two “jokes” I couldn’t watch and FF’d through Snitch, I mean Sitch.
How could you fast forward through that trainwreck? It was amazing.
Snoop killed it, though. And New Giraldo wasn’t bad either.
Jeff Ross, however, looks like death boiled over.
This was a disgrace. Greg Giraldo dies and instead of finding someone hilarious they put The Jersey Shore guy onstage? No idea how it happened that he was aloud on the dais with some of the most talented roaster’s working right now but whoever had the brilliant idea should be canned immediately. As a DISH customer and employee I missed the live airing of the show but I have the TV Everywhere app that allows me to access my home receiver with my mobile device, and I can watch anything off it, live or DVR, no matter where in the world I am, as long as I get a 3G connection. I watched the roast on my lunch break at work using my iPhone, and though “The Sitch” came close to just ruining it, they Seth McFarlane, Snoop, and Whiney Cummings more than made up for it.
What makes it really bad is A) How much money he makes and 2) He really believes that “everybody hates the popular kid”. He got booed. At a roast. He made Marlee Matlin look like Charlie Chaplin.
And new Giraldo had the greatest lineup spot in the history of comedy shows.
time traveller, foreign ain’t white.
Rupert, thanks for the sales pitch. I’m going to run out and buy one today!
Sorry I was out buying a 3g enabled phone… what’d I miss?
I’m positive they only had The Situation on to give the people who knew what the fuck they were doing more ammo.
Jeselnik, I believe, was Giraldo’s fill-in. No one can top Giraldo, but he held his own. His regular standup is like that too: He’ll basically say horrible things with a straight face and not give a shit.
The roast was actually pretty funny. Seth MacFarlane was Giraldo’s replacement–he did a pretty good job (he’s funnier sans Family Guy). Marlee Matlin was hilarious, as was Snoop, Larry King, and Anthony Jeselnik. Everyone else was just ok, except Situation, who is half-retarded anyway. At least they cut out his slave joke.
What’s with the talk of Tosh.0 possible not returning?
