Don't get in the comedic crosshairs of Jeff Ross, or you'll likely get burned. That's the lesson delivered -- with plenty of laughs -- in this half-hour series, which finds the veteran comic verbally incinerating the news of the week, pop-culture figures, and anyone or anything else that needs to be put in its proper place. He also hits the streets to take aim at "public enemies", such as meter maids and the paparazzi, and he welcomes fellow comics and celebrity pals in on the fun. Ross' skewing skills are legendary -- he's the longtime Roastmaster General of the New York Friars' Club.
