Ricky Gervais on the Emmys

He's great... My favourite comedian by far.

Did you watch his show Extras?? That was one of the funniest shows on TV, and only had a short run, which is a pity.

Every episode. I agree it's one of the funniest shows I ever saw. Some scenes were so classic...

But it's like the UK version of The Office. Just two seasons and a Christmas special and done. I wonder if the US will pick up on Extras. Likely not.

Makes me wonder what Ricky is up to next. I have yet to see "Ghost Town" but I will. He's also got a new podcast out with Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington which I will be downloading soon. Have you listened to any of those Mag?

Funny shit!!

I missed the Emmys, but Ricky is one of the best really. Saw him recently on Conan.. Cracked me up. And his shows are wicked! :-)

The Brits have their special sense and style of comedy that is simply unique.. A very diffirent and special kind of comedy compared to Hollywood.

There are TONS of insane british comedy shows and series that are SUPERB! :-)

Rats, I missed seeing the Emmy's. I've seen some of the stuff Ricky's done and I think he's fab. Looking forward to seeing his movie.
