Catch previews of Shatner Roast

Comedy Central has a few clips of the upcoming Roast of William Shatner featuring Patton Oswalt, Betty White, Carrie Fisher, George Takei, and what appears to be a running gag involving Andy Dick licking people. If anything, these clips help to remind me why I always Tivo these Roasts. It's not because they're that funny, it's because there are so many dead moments and jokes that fall flat it helps me to enjoy it more if I can skip over those parts. One can always expect Grade A material from Jeffrey Ross, but the rest of the night is always a crap shoot. I think they should hire Courtney Love to do what she did at Pamela Anderson's Roast and get drunk and belligerent on stage, diverting attention from all the bad jokes. Actually, she should just make herself available for any situation when you need a distraction. You could sneak into a movie while she does a handstand in a dress and no underwear. My god, that's the most brilliant idea I've had in the last ten seconds. She'll make millions of cents doing that.
