Ray, I 100% agree. Rodney was the best comic I ever saw live. Way better than Carlin or Bobcat. And this roast was a disgrace to Rodney's legacy. It shows me that people like Seinfeld, Barr, Allen, Clay, Carrey, Foxworthy have no loyalty or appreciation for what he did for them. I'm an amateur comedian & my focus is impressions. I met Godtfried last year & did my impression of him, Yoda & Jim Carey. I had Gilbert laughing. When I told him I was an unknown comic and asked him for help. He got all quiet and depressed and said No. I'm sure If it was Rodney, he would of helped me.

We not only need love and laughter, all before it is ever forgotten but we need to think for ourselves. This man did a lot of observing and thinking and told no one. He did one other thing.

It was mostly about what it''s like to be a comedian, small time and big time. Advice to young would-be comedians. Like, be prepared. It was so honest and direct - an expose of show business, yet a business he still loved - I couldn't believe I was hearing it on TV. He talked about what it was like to be him, no holds barred. What a man, I've loved and respected him ever since. Anyone recall it, or know where it can be found?
