Kevin Hart‘s roast at Netflix Is a Joke Fest 2026 came in just under the streamer’s 2024 roast of Tom Brady in Week 1 viewership.

Whereas The Roast of Tom Brady notched 13.8M global views during its first week on Netflix, hitting #1 on the English-Language Top 10, Hart’s roast brought in 13.5M views over the same time frame, during the week of May 4-10. In any case, the roast again secured the No. 1 spot on the English TV list for the week.

We were first to report on Hart as the subject of this year’s roast at Netflix Is a Joke fest, whose dais included  Sheryl Underwood, Chelsea Handler, Jeff Ross, Pete Davidson, Draymond Green, Tony Hinchcliffe, Regina Hall, and more.

Streamed live from the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, the event was hosted by Shane Gillis and also featured surprise appearances by Dwayne Johnson, Teyana Taylor, Tom Brady, Lizzo, Venus and Serena Williams, and Katt Williams.

Hart returned to take the hot seat this year after hosting and exec producing the Brady roast.
