Comedy Central will roast Alec Baldwin in 2019

If a Comedy Central Roast can propel Donald Trump’s shady businessman career into the presidency, then what, pray tell, will it do for Alec Baldwin?

Find out later in 2019.

Comedy Central announced today that the Comedy Central Roast of Alec Baldwin (#BaldwinRoast) will take place in New York with the tape and airdate to be announced at a later date.

“Getting roasted will be the greatest honor of my lifetime besides being a father, a husband, hosting SNL seventeen times, receiving Golden Globes, Emmys, and working with Martin Scorsese,” said Baldwin.

“Alec Baldwin has done so many great things it will be a unique treat to spend a night focusing on everything he’d rather forget,” said Jonas Larsen, Executive Vice President, Talent and Development, Comedy Central.
