has there been anything more utterly shite than this load of old arse?

>>84343293
love Gervais, but couldn't even get through 10 minutes of the first episode

The pilot and series 1 were okay, rest was bad.

Just goes to show he can't write anything great without Merchant, Merchant's Hello Ladies was good.

Really wish they'd work together again (before anyone asks, no, they haven't had a falling out, Merchant said they're just doing their own thing and recently said he'd like to do podcasts again eventually)

i tried my hardest to like The Office Uk but i failed. I never even laughed, but the cringe per scene ration was right on point.

>at least i felt something

God Extras was so good, might even be better than the office for me

>>84343293
It blows my mind that the same person that wrote that also wrote the office.

If that's true then why does the new david brent movie which steve had NOTHING to do with have 98% on rotten tomatoes.

>>84343293
So is he playing a high school kid?

If Steve is /r9k/ and Karl is /pol/, what is Ricky?

>>84348207
reddit

He's good with Pilkington though. But this was utter crap.

>>84343293
It was ok tbphwyf. He pushed the "feels" to much and it often felt insincere when they tried to do more serious dramatic things, and the christmas special was absolute garbage.

>>84343293
He's not very funny desu, merchant wrote the majority of the office.

>>84345178

I live in England and know this to be untrue.

You can't smoke in a restaurant.

Everything else seems legit though

>>84344196
It is better anon

>>84343293

Clearly you've not seen the episode where the dog dies.

Ricky Gervais:

>haha I don't have insecurities
>I always act like a douche I DON'T GIVE A SHIT
>I'm so intellectually superior
>You belive in god? What an idiot you are

Funny thing Extras is one of my all time favorite comedy series but the guy seems like a prick, he also hasn't made anything good since then.

>>84345178
Still a better love story than twilight xD

>>84343882
Same here, i had to force myself to watch at least 3 episodes and then i forgot about it completely. I don't know maybe my attention span is too small plus the cringe was waaaaay out of my comfy zone

>>84343998
fuck you horace and pete was great

>>84345178
>raped by pakis
Sure thats not the US? You guys seem to forget you are 56% white and england is about 90%

>>84348004
>rotten tomatoes
ricky stop. you're embarrassing yourself

>>84343293
I dont think your supposed to laugh at derek

I think its just a ploy to get Karl to play himself on tv

>>84345178
If you'd left out the raped to death part no one would have laughed harder at this than Maisie herself.

>>84345155
This. My mom legitimately watched and enjoyed this show.

Do Americans actually like him? As a Britbong everyone I know thinks he's a self absorbed prick.

>>84343484

You love him? I think he's a wholly unlikable person. Literally a ridiculous, villain like persona from a film. The little weasel who gets killed by the main villian at some point, that's what he reminds me of

>>84345178

Some of the best comedy writing I have ever seen is copypasta from 4chan

>>84356464
As a Brit I like him even though he's only made shitty stuff recently. The Office, XFM shows, and Extras are some of the best pieces of comedy ever recorded. He is a genuinely smart guy, but burgers get assblasted because he's an atheist even though 99% of white people in England are. As someone from Reading I also appreciate him keeping his accent all these years despite the fact that people can barely understand him speak when he's unscripted.

New season of Moaning of Life when?

>>84356217

Yeah, Netlix licenses some shows that have already airs and calls them originals in other countries.

>>84356483

I'm not that anon but I can see why people would love him, in the XFM days up until Life's too short he was great, but then he changed for the worse. It's like he forgot the whole point of Andy Millman's story, he turned into him.

It doesn't help following him on twitter either, I remember when he first got his twitter and he said what's the point of it, then deleted it, then he came back and now can't stop tweeting.

>>84356710

Look's as though Karl's really finished with it this time.

>>84347432
So genius his solo comedy is atrocious, what a maverick

CURSIVE writing pleb. the simpsons did the joke multiple times..

>>84343484
Yea i watched like 5 minutes. It was like a horrible sketch that was turned into a series for some reason.

>>84356856
Hello Ladies definitely wasn't as painful to watch as Derek was.

The best thing about this series were the bloopers.

>>84356464
I liked him in Curb Your Enthusiasm and Ghost Town

>>84356857
>cursive

I think you mean joined-up, mate.

>>84357673
This
I haven't seen a single episode but the bloopers are fucking hilarious.

>>84343293
Yes, of course. Most of the old "tits farts bottoms double entendre" comedies were fucking dreadful because every idiot assumed they could write one.
