Extras

#

Started by Simon (Simon) in Chit-Chat

Now I’m really looking forward to tonight to watch Extras. I’m not a big fan of TV but I have a feeling this will be good, I think old Ricky is very funny.

I’ve seen the whole of the Kate winslet episode and I pissed myself, i just hope the rest are as good:D

I really enjoyed it, It’s a bit more subtle than the Office. But I seem to like my comedy the darker the better.

My favourite line was “well you won’t be getting bowel cancer”

:D I liked it. My best bit went along the lines of:

Ben Stiller: Do you know who I am?
Ricky Gervais: It’s either Starsky or Hutch, I can never remember.
Ben Stiller: Was that supposed to be funny?
Ricky Gervais: You tell me, you were in it.

I only caught the last 5 minutes, but it seemed ok. I think it might be a grower.

I also liked the part.

“are your sure you want to go out with him?”
“why?
“because when people ask who you are they will say, she’s the one who goes out with the bloke with the big shoe!”

The whole shoe scene was great.:D

Its pretty damn funny, but kinda shows Ricky Gervais can only do one charachter.

your right but that charactor is himself, I have met him a few times and what he is like in the office and extras and live is what he is in real life! But it might not help him in the long run, if he wishs to do different stuff.

Yeah the 3rd episode was the best so far,it had so many good bits in it.I enjoyed the bit when Andy was at the prayer meeting pretending to be catholic and said the priest made him kiss his ring haha.Kate Winsletts advice about phone sex was funny too.
