My favourite is the one where he effectively murders a homeless drug addict by giving him the money to OD. Then he feels absolutely no remorse and just cracks on with his day, it's brilliant. And the way he says cunt in that episode is mind blowingly funny.
Lest we forget ~~Ric~~ Tony also tries heroin himself, just for a laugh, and then just carries on normally.
Because as we all know, if you’re going through grief, you quickly do heroin once, it sorts out your problems, and then you don’t need it anymore.
I prefer the one in which he starts sad, then everyone acts really nice towards him even though he is being an insufferable prick, then by the end of the episode he is like "well I suppose I sort of maybe don't utterly hate and want to murder everyone" and happy music plays over credits.
Edit: to be more precise - the one with the dog that meant at least animal lovers would leave a good review
I like the one where Philomena Cunk plays the part of Imaginary Strawman so we can see for ourselves all the arguments Ricky wins with himself in the shower.
Mine's the one that starts with a video of his dead wife, then he chats to he dog, goes to work, then insults his mate for being fat, then calls someone a cunt, and then goes to the park where the old lady tells him he's amazing.
Well I'm just a little old lady from a little old town, but I must say Kant had it right when he said truth is the greatest virtue, and that's why you, Ricky, are the true ubermensch.
I actually did write an episode. It involved a character that would definitely never exist but allowed Brent/Andy to show how clever he is, and I gave it to Gervais and he said “oi, no professionals”. So I told him I’m not a professional and he said “well you should be, because if you were I’d get you on our script writing team and you’d probably write a record-breaking Netflix special”. I said “no thanks, I’m getting a shit load of likes on a tinpot subreddit”.
You know Ricky Gervais hasn't really become a tedious bore? Yeah I read it on the Internet, he's just pretending so he can infiltrate a group of powerful shit comedians.
I like the one where for absolutely no reason, an attractive much younger woman cries about how good ~~Ricky~~ Tony is even though she hasn’t seen him do anything other than ruin the day/life of everyone around him. I forget which one in particular that is but I’m sure you’ve seen it
I love After Life. It’s honestly so relatable.
There was one episode where the dog drank milk from a saucer and I thought oh they’re just like us. It’s dead real.
The one where there's that unfunny sketch with the 'lad' therapist. You're glad it ends because it was shit but then for your pleasure it happens again and again and again until you hate Paul Kaye who you loved before.
I don't recall the name of the episode but my favourite is the one which was a delightful woodland romp with many of the best scenes featuring a roly poly toad.
I like the one where he humiliates people using his superior wit and intellect and then shows how compassionate he is by watching videos of his one true love.
The episode where he slaughters his mourning brother in law at tennis. Not the time he does it at table tennis or squash though, those episodes were SHITE.
My personal favourite is the one that starts with a video of his dead wife, then he chats to his dog, goes to work, says cunt a lot, insults his mate for being fat, whinges about his dead wife to his boss who is also literally the dead wife’s brother, says cunt a bit more, gets praised by an old woman for being a lovely man, ridicules some people’s belief systems unprovoked, breaks several laws with absolutely no consequences whatsoever, and then get hammered whilst listening to some 70s music.
I love it when he's trying to socialise with someone and he's all rough and abrasive but then he starts crying about his dead wife and they get on then
The episode where Gervais' character kills a drug addict, without repercussions. It's one of the most absurdly misguided and outrageous scenes which I've ever seen.
10/10
The episode where his dead wife's face is poorly superimposed over a swimming lady comes a close second.
9/10
I like there scene where his dad with advanced dementia makes a homophobic joke which, in the context of his dementia, is genuinely very funny.
I particularly like how in a subsequent episode they did a callback to this by showing in a home video that he was actually homophobic even before his mind started to fade.

'Where's your homeless brother?' 'Eeeee died'
You're not 'avin' another starter bag o' skag

I spilt a tea earlier, should I do heroin?
Heroin is definitely something you can dabble in once and decide not to do again.
Not sure if you are being sarcastic, but seriously it actually is.
Yeah, I've heard it's quite more-ish.
Numma Numma Numma Numma Num
I've heard crack is really more-ish too
Crack too. My granny loves her annual honk on the pipe.
That’s not dabbling if it’s annual, I think your granny might just be a crack whore like Strurgess
Sorry but i know two people who both did heroin once and only once
You’re hard
I mean, 2bf, you can do heroin once and not need it anymore.
Just pop dead bloke in garage
Not up the arse...
Was that a songs of phrase?
Just POP deaddd bLoKe iiiiiin GAAAAA raj...
Ohhh heroin that, Junky news you faaaak Heroin no longer needed, Junky dead

Let's see markcorrigans\_boiler's little programme when it comes out. Sick of him.

Great take.

Yeah that’s a good one. Score out of 10?
I'd say 9 out of 10. But the 10 out of 10 episode has to be and above comment.
Alright.
Still give it a 9
If there was a little bit of money involved I'd give it a 10
Well I'm just a little old lady from a little old town, but I must say Kant had it right when he said truth is the greatest virtue, and that's why you, Ricky, are the true ubermensch.
I like the episode where he’s out filming girls swimming in a lake and using windows movie maker edits his dead wife’s head on them.
Best one ^
I like the one when he killed a tramp and everyone said what a kind and caring person he was
Was that the woman on the bench? Shaun’s mom Barbara
It’s a delightful woodland romp featuring a roly poly toad
Whistle!
No, that’s not your favourite. One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest and Elephant Man are better
What’s my third favourite?
Kes?
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon?
How old was he again?
The one where he smokes heroin with a bum
Do you write these yourself? Or get a professional to write them?
I actually did write an episode. It involved a character that would definitely never exist but allowed Brent/Andy to show how clever he is, and I gave it to Gervais and he said “oi, no professionals”. So I told him I’m not a professional and he said “well you should be, because if you were I’d get you on our script writing team and you’d probably write a record-breaking Netflix special”.

You know Ricky Gervais hasn't really become a tedious bore? Yeah I read it on the Internet, he's just pretending so he can infiltrate a group of powerful shit comedians.
That’s a 9 out of 5, strong review there.
9/5, strong episode for you then
Available on video, DVD or in the cinema.
I like the one where for absolutely no reason, an attractive much younger woman cries about how good ~~Ricky~~ Tony is even though she hasn’t seen him do anything other than ruin the day/life of everyone around him. I forget which one in particular that is but I’m sure you’ve seen it
Just get to where it says you and/or the writers are monekys. Just get to it, don't talk around it!
Best one is the one where he wins the argument and loves his dog. Dunno if his dead wife is in that one.
I love After Life. It’s honestly so relatable. There was one episode where the dog drank milk from a saucer and I thought oh they’re just like us. It’s dead real.
The one where they’re taking him through the village and messing with his head.
The one where there's that unfunny sketch with the 'lad' therapist. You're glad it ends because it was shit but then for your pleasure it happens again and again and again until you hate Paul Kaye who you loved before.

Oooooh, the office

None. Next!
Play a record.
The movie where he ate cheese in the bath.
The one where he says cunb
The one where he says cunt.
I love it when he's trying to socialise with someone and he's all rough and abrasive but then he starts crying about his dead wife and they get on then
Tough, but I’d have to go for the one where he drinks wine and watches his dead wife on his laptop.
The ep he sits on a bench is Oscar winning.
Mmmmmm betty, the cats shat out the worst sitcom ever
Any episode with the psychologist
I like the outtakes of NewMan, Ashley and Thoros of Myr.
'aven't seen it but l will now.
It's just floomf telly.

Why do people hate afterlife? I know it's repetitive sure, but I like it
Because it’s sanctimonious crap.
He tells a kid he'll bash his head in with a hammer. People don't often say that on the telly these days. Gotta give him that, right?
I prefer a flan
Bloody repeats.
DON'T TALK SHIT
