Format
The Burn with Jeff Ross was presented in a humorous half-hour format, broadcast Tuesday nights at 10:30 EST (9:30 Central). The show was broken down into many segments, including celebrity visits, public roasting, and panelist roasting. The first season contained an additional segment, known as "speed roasting", in which audience members volunteered to be roasted; as of the second season, this segment was available only via the Internet. The show usually featured several segments: "Friendly Fire", where Ross met with a celebrity friend and they roasted each other; "Rapid Fire", a season-one segment with quick jokes about a topic or celebrity; "Public Enemy", where Ross, sometimes on a Segway scooter, roasted people on the street; "Panel", with three guest comedians discussing news and pop culture; and "Too Soon?", the final segment, in which Ross performed a roast or eulogy for someone who had recently died.
