After an enormously successful film and music career throughout the fifties and mid-sixties, Dean began a new carrier in television.
 
The Dean Martin Show began on September 16, 1965, in which one of the segments, a celebrity roast, became wildly popular. Who would better than Dean Martin himself, publicly showering his legendary celebrity friends with ribbing insults and embarrassing stories?

The Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts quickly became a favorite television show amongst its audience and evolved to become its own network series, "The Dean Martin Roasts". At the time Dean Martin had one of the biggest contracts between a network and a star.

The Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts were a fixture on the NBC Thursday night lineup from 1973 to 1984. During this time, Dean and his panel of pals successfully ridiculed, made fun of and embarrassed hundreds of legendary stars such as Sammy Davis Jr., Frank Sinatra, Lucille Ball and Dean Martin himself.
