Probably a bit too late for it to be popular, but Comedy Central has been scraping the bottom of the “who’s funny right now” barrel with Hasselhoff and Donald Trump being the last few names to grace the Comedy Central Roast stage. Now it seems they’re still trying to catch up with the viral webgoers, as Charlie Sheen has agreed to star in his very own roast. They even have a hashtag reserved!

NEW YORK, July 5, 2011 – COMEDY CENTRAL has secured one of Hollywood’s most notorious bad boys.  The network announced today that Charlie Sheen will be the next Roastee.  The “COMEDY CENTRAL Roast Of Charlie Sheen” (#SheenRoast) will tape in Los Angeles on Saturday, September 10.

The Roast will premiere on COMEDY CENTRAL on Monday, September 19 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT.

“You could say I’ve been providing kindling for this Roast for a while,” said Sheen.  “It’s time to light it up.  It’s going to be epic.”

The true hilarity of this whole thing is that the Roast is set to air on the debut night of Ashton Kutcher on CBS’ Two and a Half Men. Coincidence? We absolutely think not. Be sure to catch them (both) on September 19th.

Friday has ended up being a day where we have a lot of previews for new and currently airing TV shows. This Friday is no exception as we’ve got a whole slew of new previews for upcoming Fall shows from our pals at NBC.

Among these shows are The Event, Outsourced, Chase, Outlaw and the news season of Donald “Your Fired” Trump’s The Apprentice. Yes, that show is still on and yes, his hair still looks like that. Move on.

Here’s the scoop on the previews:

· The Event: Check out the extended 2:30 promo for footage from the pilot and interviews with the cast that are sure to pique your interest.

· Outsourced: This very funny promo finds humor in the slight cultural differences that Outsourced is going to be poking fun at. Let’s just say the phrase “birthday suit” doesn’t translate well…

· Chase: The latest promo teaches us a little about US Marshal Annie Frost’s background. Her troubled life as a child is what drives her to catch the dangerous criminals we’ll see her pursuing.

· Outlaw: The sneak peek below takes you on set to talk to Jimmy Smits and the cast of Outlaw as they give you a comprehensive preview at the Friday series.

· The Apprentice: Donald Trump will be giving the winner of this season a second chance – a privilege that is not lost on the contestants.
