Do You find Ricky Gervais Funny???

[puddicat]

He has a show on sometime this week, and all of the comedians i watch on telly he is the worse, with his non funny stories and he seems to have a constant leering expression!!!

[Prangy]

They guy is a complete genious hence the reason he is one of the most popular comedians in UK history! I can understand why people dont find him funny but i personally think he is quality. Animals is my favourite show he has done. Very funny indeed! Which shows have you seen puddicat? Have you seen him in extras?

[puddicat]

yes watched it once not bad when surrounded with others, but on his own not for me,didnt particularly get the office either!!!!

[Tom Braider]

In stand-up, yes. The sit-coms? Don't get 'em.

[daffy654]

I don't find him very funny either puddicat,I much prefer Frankie Boyle or Dara O'Briain(sp).

[Prangy]

i think you have to understand his stand up act before watching him in anything else...

[puddicat]

daffy right on frankie boyle is superb,love mock the week, he is so better than the rest of them, think they realise that!!!

[chazza]

I prefer his sitcoms, I thought Extras and The Office were genius!

[Prangy]

I love all Gervais, The Office was a scream Chazza!!! LOL David Brent is my idle... when all is bad at work i think of him and i smile. What a hero. :D

[Gromit]

He has just made a film in the US 'Ghost Town' which is getting very good reviews, so an Hollywood career beckons...

Which might mean we will be seeing less of him over here, which would suit me.

[cazzz1975]

I loved the office!

[naomi24]

No, not at all.

[what..the?]

ermmm no sorry I find him really annoying, he makes me scream and run out the room.

If I had a freak accident or illness and lost my hearing at least I wouldn't ever hear is voice again.

But I would never stop anyone else enjoying his humour I hate people who force their views on other.

[daniela31]

I don't particulary find him funny either. He has what I would call...'a one expresion face'

[puddicat]

Can i ask as a matter of demographics and job,do the people that like ricky gervais, com e from the south and work in offices and alike!!!!

[Yes-Chef]

I love Ricky Gervais' work, although I actually prefer Extras to the Office which is probably unusual! "Fame" (his most recent stand up) is on channel 4 tonight is anyone's interested.

[clareybeary]

I like him, though i dont think he is particularly good at stand.

daffy654 - me too! Frankie Boyle and Dara o Brian are great comedians

[SA80]

The Office was the work of a genius, however as a stand up he doesn't come near 'Billy Connolly'

[MK66]

No. I can't stand the man. (Love Mock the Week though!).
By the way, I live in Milton Keynes and I have worked in an office (different ones!) for 23 years as a PA.
