That was actually pretty moving.

 

[Bluemoon115]

That ad for the last exorcism just shit me right up.

 

[johnmc]

It was poor.

However saying this must mean im a right laugh down the pub

 

[CTID1988]

More of a drama than a comedy, pretty good 2nd half. Other than that it was pretty poor really

 

[toffee balls]

Give it time

Promising I would say

 

[Fitton]

Wank.

Ricky Gervais just isn't funny. I fail to see why people call him a genius or talented, he just plays the part of complete cocks, which funnily enough is just him in real life.

He just isn't funny.

I just watched some of that, and it was awful. Nothing funny at all in there.

How on earth has he made a career and fortune out of his 'act'? Makes me sick.

 

[johnny on the spot]

Twenty years too late, Gervais. Again.

Vic and Bob (Tom Fun and Derek) and even Peter Kay (Leonard) covered this subject with better style, grace, sympathy and humour than Gervais could ever conceive.

Fuck off back to Hollywood.

As a 1 off it wasnt up to Gervais high standard. I think its just setting it up for a series in a way give it some time if there is a series there is a lot to work with it which makes me think a series was always in the bag for him.

 

[BlueMoonWalker]

Thank God it was a one off he says he is slowly writing a series, don't rush Ricky. How that is classed as a comedy drama completely beats me.
