The range of gervais' comedy still surprises me - I find him hillarious but always thought his comedy style was very specific (like with most comedians) but XFM shows him in a completely different light...
@Johan Hansén Yes sir ! I ended up downloading a huge collection from a torrent with legitimately all their radio shows ( from every xfm show , to every ricky gervais show, to their specials etc) - I could not point to where from I got it , but i can assure you its out there ! I have it on my hard drive for a rainy day with no internet now :D
@squiddeh1 i like gervais's work as much as any1, but this doesn't stop me from seeing what is clearly true. unlike urself, take ur blinkers off. hes not perfect just because u and i love his previous work.
Wasn't Karl a producer before he was discovered as an idiot savant? So it turns out Gervais & Merchant ran into him, & turned some of his silly statements into a cash cow for themselves, as well as Pilkington. If you're a fan, you recognize that the same shit is repeated over & over, but presented as original material in different forms. Haha the joke's on you.
