@devilsrain729 He would not survive. This was the era of the vaudeville and burlesque comedians and auditions for spots on the tonight show. Burns with or without Gracie would dessintegrate Giraldo.
Smoking inside, drinking whisky and getting drunk in public, being able to give a woman a back hander if she spoke out of turn. Ah, those were the days……..
To continue I would love to get together with other like minded people and do them all over again while dismissing PC. Obtaining permission from the copywrite owners first. These roasts were put on in pre-cable tv days. Today if people don't like with they don't have to buy them if they were aired on a premium channel or Pay per View. I'd take part reguardless of any negative response,Just saying!
I love the Comments about these roasts almost as much as I love watching the roasts. A lot of comments talk about how the roasts are greatest shows of all time with the greatest of actors of time. The Comments also talk about how not PC they are. If they were on someone would end up in court and or prison and apologizing for not being sensitive while writing a 7 figure check to some greedy bastard who is hiding behind the law so they don't to work for a living.
These vintage shows are wonderful. Wonder if they had the jokes written for them, or if all of that was inspiration of the moment. If it was, I wish I had the millionth part of their wit for wise crack remarks and one liners. My stomach hurts sometimes from laugther.

I'm thinking Frank Sinatra for President and Dean Martin for Vice President. So I guess I agree with President Reagan on thata statement!
