If you haven't seen his movies yet i suggest you watch them, they are actually really funny. I didn't actually know who he was and i watched 2 of the movies hes starred in and actually liked them. And im beggining to like him alot more. I just recently purchased a Podcast from I-tunes and it is hilarious, the amount of crap he talks through one episode ahahahah....
Ricky Gervais
I love Ricky Gervais although I wasn't overly keen on his last film, not sure if it was meant to be a comedy or something deeply sentimental, seemed to change focus mid way.
'The Office' was brilliant (and yes I do love the American version too) and so was 'Extras' but I think I'd like to see him take a back seat and write more. Not sure if that's what he's doing with his new film.

Gervais is great. Although, The Invention of Lying was awful, Extras and The Office are hilarious.

I like him and like his stand up, but I've yet to really like anything he's done on tv or film. Ghost Town looked funny, but I've not seen it yet.

Ghost Town wasn't great. I was a big fan of The Office, though, and Extras, the final parts of both were quite extraordinary. His cameo in Stardust, though, was painfully bad.

I resisted watching The Office for ages simply cos I'd worked in offices when I was younger and was stuck working in the same room as some bloody awful people, so I thought it wasn't going to be that funny. That was until I saw a bit about Tim hiding Gareth's stapler in jelly, then intrigued I had to watch them all. So good they are, and Extras too, very clever.
Ghost Town was just ok, nothing I'd recommend
Ricky Gervais is a nice guy tho. Did you hear him on Desert Island Discs a couple of years ago?

Gervais is a great writer and comic actor. Loved The Office and Extras, liked Ghost Town and loved The Invention Of Lying, great screenplay, very clever.
One of the biggest names in the business and we have 10 posts? Come on people!
The Office and Extras are works of genius. His movies are not so good but a true comedian can adapt and is versatile, which is what Gervais does with his stand up. Some of the funniest routines I have EVER seen!

"Hi, I'm Bob I'm the spokesperson for the Coca-Cola company. I'm here today to ask you to continue buying coke. Sure it's a drink you've been drinking for years, and if you still enjoy it, I'd like to remind you to buy it again sometime soon. It's basically just brown sugar water, we haven't changed the ingredients much lately, so there's nothing new I can tell you about that. We changed the can around a little bit though. See, the colors here are different there, and we added a polar bear so the kids like us. Coke is very high in sugar and like any high calorie soda it can lead to obesity in children and adults who don't sustain a very healthy diet. So that's it, it's coke. It's very famous, everyone knows it. I'm Bob, I work for coke, and I'm asking you to not stop buying coke. That's all.It's a bit sweet. Thank you."

He is cool. He can be really funny. Offensive. But still funny. Smart too.

Karl Pilkington. I found him a little tiring after the first series of An Idiot Abroad but still fun.

I enjoyed The Office. But I've found his whole persona increasingly aggravating and unfunny since that point.

Well I've got to say that I personally can't stand Gervais. Not a fan of his TV shows, his film work, his TV interviews or his stand up. I do however love The Ricky Gervais Show, though that's probably because he has little to do with it - it's all about Karl.
