In 2022, Russian viewers, having matured and accustomed to bold and even provocative shows on the Internet, learned what it means to “roast a star”. The rerun channel TNT4 launched the project “Roasting” – a kind of adaptation of the American show “Comedy Central Roast”, in which some stars harshly and even cruelly ridicule others. We have released four seasons of “Prozharka”, and during this time the “prozharki” (mainly comedians and comedians of TNT) sharply criticized Garik Martirosyan, Pavel Volya, Timur Batrutdinov, Ksenia Sobchak, Timati, Mikhail Galustyan and many others. The show was hosted by Ilya Sobolev and Andrey Beburishvili. And in 2022 the project was closed.
And now the same creators (Vyacheslav Dusmukhametov) decided to revive it on VK. True, under a new name – “Big Roasting”. In the first episode, which has already received 7 million views in 1 day, the best TNT comedians joked about Garik Kharlamov: Andrei Abramov, Andrei Beburishvili, Philip Voronin, Denis Dorokhov, Evgeniy Chebatkov and others.
Despite the fact that each of the participants traditionally expressed respect and praise for Garik, the jokes turned out to be quite harsh: the comedians did not hesitate to joke about the showman’s divorce from Christina Asmus, his new marriage with Ekaterina Kovalchuk (partner of the TV series “Hussar”), excess weight, dirty hair, laziness and the habit of being late everywhere and always. That’s the format. And KP.RU has collected several examples of jokes.
Nadya Dzhabrailova: “Garik and I have such a big age difference that I am fit to be his… wife?! But he recently proposed to an actress who starred with him in the same series, which once again proves how desperate he is to get anywhere. On the plus side, it’s great that Garik’s new girlfriend is also an actress, because after the news of the engagement, TV-3 immediately called her and invited her to play the main role in the series “Blind.”
Zoya Yarovitsyna: “Recently, Garik proposed to Katya Kovalchuk, I’m sure, just to eat a loaf of bread again.”
Ivan Abramov: “Garik is also a good person. Well, he always said only good things about his ex-wife Christina. This procedure is called Asmus whitening.”
Andrei Beburishvili: “Garik recently received a call from telephone scammers. He immediately realized that it was a scam and gave them the other half of the house. Garik is very generous. Every two years he gives each of his wives her maiden name.
