Gervais thinks he's way cooler and more controversial than he actually is. Look, just being consistently contradictory doesn't make you funny or smart. And his smug "Aw yeah? I offend you yeah? Yeah? Is it all offensive when I said there's no God, yeah? Is that offensive yeah?" just shuuuuuut uuuuup and pull your head out of your own rear end, Rick.

This is that guy from GTA4 right? Blurry Gray Thing posted:Idiot Abroad is the only thing I've seen that involved Ricky Gervais that was genuinely funny and worth seeing. It's a decent idea and Carl's comments and weird observations really stuck with you. Gervais himself should've just stuck to running it instead of taking part because he came off as a real rear end in a top hat every time he was on screen. Extras was legit good

“I want to get cancelled! Not really, because I want another standup tour and another series of my TV show. But I want everyone to report that I’ve been cancelled! Please don’t actually cancel me though I need money and attention”

I've seen like 4 different standup specials in the last 2 years where some lovely comedian has a big lead up to a segment where they say they're going to say things that will get them cancelled, then when you finally get there it's just some tired old dead baby jokes or whatever, showing that they have no idea what "cancelled" means and they think it just means "has humor too dark for people to handle". I expect nothing different out of ricky gervais.

Being buried, getting Amish jarred peas, and hanging with the redneck prospector were great. the weirdest thing about idiot abroad was that it apparently was borne from The Ricky Gervais Podcast which is the least listenable podcast I've ever tried to listen to. It is straight up noise, even after you forgive the fact that it is a grating, awful podcast - no jokes, no humor, no structure, just noise. it's a primitive piece of poo poo, like a caveman poo poo some archeologist is picking apart with a toothbrush and a magnifying glass. pilkington is legit funny.

Dear Ricky Gervais If you really want to get cancelled all you need to do is earn the nickname Sticky Gervais

Perhaps the controversy is that we as a society are so depraved that we would broadcast a man dying while an audience cheers him on.

The best Ricky Gervais thing is the old XFM radio shows from the early 2000s. Its basically just the podcast but not forced. Also because its such a raw unedited thing he actually loses from time to time. Hes still a dickhead on it but Karl and Steve actually have a fighting chance against him because he isn’t able to do another take or go back edit the tapes to make himself look like the winner.

Sophy Wackles posted:pretty sure all the monty python guys have themselves been canceled. Michael Palin is far too nice to be cancelled, and sadly Graham Chapman and Terry Jones are far too dead. Nobody knows whether or not Eric Idle and Terry Gilliam are cancelled. Their proximity to John Cleese (extremely cancelled) makes their cancelledness, or lack thereof, unobservable, at least through any methods currently known to science.
