"The Burn with Jeff Ross" (Series Premiere)

Tuesday, August 14 from 10:30 p.m. - 11:00 p.m.

America's Roastmaster General, Jeff Ross, roasts the world on COMEDY CENTRAL's new original half-hour weekly series, "The Burn with Jeff Ross." Ross will skewer the week's pop culture topics in-studio, and hit the streets to take aim at "public enemies," such as meter maids, the paparazzi, and those who need to be taken down a notch, like Betty White. Ross will be joined by fellow comics and celebrity pals as he verbally incinerates all the things we loathe and love. Absolutely no one is safe. Every episode will end with a tribute to whomever or whatever passed away that week, entitled "Too Soon?" (Most likely Betty White.)
