Seems a pattern here, people that really like Gervais and his stuff, don't seem to like the series that much. People that don't, or don't know his stuff well enough, seem to enjoy it.

è possibileFinished S1 of Gomorrah. Can't see how on earth they can sustain this, for four more seasons as well!

You can give up after series 1. The next 2 are identicalI'm just half way through the 1st series and am enjoying it myself, I've realised since starting it that I've never watched a Ricky Gervais series or film before either. Not sure how I've managed that TBH.

I think he got a snippet of a new crowd from derek. Funny whilst pulling on heartstrings at times. He’s then took that to a new level and gained a load of emotional dog loving fans. He’s no idiot, it will have earned him a shit load of cash.Seems a pattern here, people that really like Gervais and his stuff, don't seem to like the series that much.

He has probably made it a lot more palatable to people that aren't his usual audience.
And chances are many then as a result give some of his other things a go that they wouldn't otherwise have bothered with.

I felt Afterlife was very aimed at American Audiences.

Last episode was really good. The middle bit in the hospital had me in tears.

Rewatching the Pacific for the first time since I originally watched it in 2010. Was disappointed the first time as it wasn’t as amazing as Band of Brothers (which Iv rewatched many, many times). However, I’m appreciating it a lot more this time around.
