Those roasts were funny... You can’t do those anymore. Especially Foster Brooks acting drunk. Liberals will find them offensive...
Every once in a while, the "Decades" channel runs the Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts during their "Weekend binge." Unfortunately. political correctness is imposed on these broadcasts. There is a hilarious roast of Muhammad Ali by Foster Brooks that is heavily censored when shown on Decades. Also, there is a "warning" to the viewer at the beginning of each episode stating that "The following program was originally broadcast in the 1970s and contains outdated humor and cultural references."
Haven’t you seen any more recent roasts? The William Shatner one was very rude- it had Andy Fick, Farah Fawcett and George Takei in it.
The modern roasts tend to be pretty unimaginative and gratuitously offensive, it’s probably the woke version of allowing themselves one day in the year where there are no rules and they can release all their pent-up venom in (or laugh at) an un-PC rant.
