Un "roast" es una tradición estadounidense, una fiesta en que amigos del homenajeado se turnan para ponerle verde y llamarle de todo... luego, como la cosa no deja de ser una fiesta, el invitado tiene turno de réplica. Comedy Central lleva años explotando este formato con estrellas caídas en desgracia que se prestan al juego, y el equipo mezcla comediantes habituales con invitados especiales que sí conocen al homenajeado. Este es el especial dedicado a Justin Bieber.

More money flows through the family courts, and into the hands of courthouse insiders, than in all other court systems in America combined – over $50 billion a year and growing. Through extensive research and interviews with the nation’s top divorce lawyers, mediators, judges, politicians, litigants and journalists, DIVORCE CORP. uncovers how children are torn from their homes, unlicensed custody evaluators extort money, and abusive judges play god with people’s lives while enriching their friends. This explosive documentary reveals the family courts as unregulated, extra-constitutional fiefdoms. Rather than assist victims of domestic crimes, these courts often precipitate them. And rather than help parents and children move on, as they are mandated to do, these courts - and their associates - drag out cases for years, sometimes decades, ultimately resulting in a rash of social ills, including home foreclosure, bankruptcy, suicide and violence.
