Give it time

Promising I would say

It was a one off episode

i remember the first lifes too short was poor and everyone wrote it off, however that improved significantly and ended up being hilarious... i think if there is more to come it will improve

That was a comedy?

mocking the disabled.
How fuck ing brave.
What a twat.

Little Britain was just infantile shite for children with mental ages of 12.
Gervaise is just an evil twat.

how exactly does he mock the disabled?

You are joking?
Where have you been for the last year?
Try Google, I can't be arsed telling you.

I thought it was very good and moving at the end. If they make it into a series I would watch it. My mum worked in homes for 20 years and I used to help out when I was a kid so can relate to some of the charaters

Turned off after 10 minutes. How is gervais classed as comedy? his act is laughing !t himself. It shows how shit "entertainment" today is, that this passes off.

Was fairly rubbish. Only good thing about it was Karl.

There were a couple of funny moments, I thought it touched more on drama than comedy. Maybe that's why people feel let down.

Poor at best

I didn't see it as a LOL comedy, if anything it was a way to highlight to people how depressing these homes are whilst their relatives rot in them - and using humour to keep joe public aware of the issue.

Only moment i did LOL though was the female headbutt, but i only laughed as i didn't expect it.

it is depressing as fuck
