Talk:New York Friars Club

message: The history of this article is a great example of persistent stupid people. The Friar's club never roasted William Shatner, Flavor Flav, or Pamela friggin' Anderson. If you see that the Smothers Brothers were roasted in 2003, kill the desire to replace their name with Dennis Leary. Comedy Central stopped broadcasting the roasts after Chevy Chase, and all the roasts they've shown since then were Comedy Central productions, and Comedy Central only. You people are so stupid.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.253.177.76 (talk • contribs) 
:Shouldn't this information be included in the entry so that people are confused?  I came here wondering why the Friar's Club would roast Flavor Flav.  When I saw the list of roasts, I realized they were two different shows, but was still surprised this wasn't explained.Wenin 02:24, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I think it would be good to add it to the article to help stop confusion, so I added a blurb. If anybody wants to expand on it, they're welcome to. Comedy Central has their own roasts, and the Friars Club has their own roasts. Which raises another question: After 2002, did the FC tape their roasts? --98.232.181.201 (talk) 21:27, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

message: We've all seen the infomercials on TV for the Dean Martin DVDs, all of which are in color. The Dean Martin roasts were the Friars' Club roasts, right? Lucille Ball was roasted in 1961. But we see her roasted, in color footage, with Dean Martin hosting. Jack Benny got roasted in 1963, but we see him roasted by Dean Martin in the infomercial. Again its shot in color and the clothing and hairstyles are also very indicative of 1968 to 1973 or so. Can somebody explain this? --98.232.181.201 (talk) 21:35, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

message: Pretty sure the 1972 date for the Ed McMahon roast is incorrect. I've heard a recording of it -- there are several Nixon jokes that are clearly post-Watergate/resignation and a reference to Jimmy Carter's Playboy interview. Plus, constant mentions of McMahon's "new bride," Victoria. According to McMahon's Wikipedia entry: McMahon married Victoria Valentine on March 6, 1976. So '76 or a little later seems more probable.
