I love the roasts, all of them. The Dee Snider roast isn't on Comedy Central, or even a channel you've heard of, but AXS TV channel. At 4:00 AM probably. I DVR'd it last week, not expecting much (the biggest name is Jim Norton, one of the funniest men alive); and was pleasantly surprised by the outcome. A very passable roast with some great jokes. Jim Norton, Scott Ian, and Jim Florentine are the highlights to be sure (yes, Scott Ian), while there are many "roasters" who are just....well...remember Courtney Love at Pamela Anderson's roast? Dee's son (Shane?) tops the list as most uncomfortable person on a dais EVER, while Zakk Wylde (sp?) basically stumbles all over himself. This is all due to a lack of Comedy Central editing, which is why it is 30 minutes longer than a CC roast.
Overall, it rates somewhere between Larry the Cable Guy and Flava Flav. Just go get snacks when the "Wierd Al" taped part comes on. Unwatchable.
I gave it a 6.5 Rock on!
