Ricky Gervais - Science

[kandr]

I quite enjoyed Ricky Gervais's previous Stand-up and his TV shows, however his new stand-up is dire. A lot of jokes rehashed from his other stand ups and basically slagging off disabled/fat people is how he tries to get laughs. He has lost weight himself but never refers to him being a ex fatty which might have spare him from being a totally arrogant obnoxious prat, which I used to think was an act and quite clever, but now coming to the conclusion he actually is like that.

He also walks through a children's bible book of Noah and points out how the story doesn't match up with current science (Really!!).

He sips from a can of Fosters in clear view, obviously coining in some ad money from the Aussie brewery.

Avoid at all costs.

I went to see him live and loved it. Each to their own I guess.

He has referred to himself as being bigger, in the past actually.

As I have said all his work up until now has been good, I just though this was poor by his standards. Louis CK is the king for me.

Get yourself along to see Eddie Izzard.

I liked RG standup until I finally saw him live doing Science, and as others have said, it was poorer than his previous stuff.

I also say Eddie Izzard's last tour, and was thoroughly underwhelmed by that as well, despite having loved all his previous tours
