New Ricky Gervais special "SuperNature" - thoughts?

I went online after watching it and typed it in and saw a bunch of news headlines about how it's 'violence' lmao. Same old claims. Words are literally violence. Anti-trans everything because of a few dick jokes.

I always liked Gervais. Found the special pretty funny and he had me laughing pretty good at certain bits. It's obvious he does this for fun and doesn't really care about the outcome. Dude is probably worth so much he could just sit in his house for the next 20 lifetimes and not have to work a day in his life. It's always refreshing to witness artists that have no financial shackles. With no financial concern, you can maintain integrity. Same with musicians.

I'd recommend you watch the entire thing then. It's refreshing to hear someone who doesn't give a fuk. It's also funny to hear really dark humour these days when everyone gets triggered by everything - both left and right side of the extreme spectrum.

I thought it was better than his previous special, even though I don't really recall a whole lot from it. I just like his general outlook on life and the way he thinks.

Agree on both points. Did you watch After Life? or Derek?

After Life yes, Derek not yet. I'm kind of saving that one assuming it'll be really good.

After Life was surprisingly good. It was really hysterical but also really touching. Proof this guy has multiple talents.

Derek is a lot like it with a lot of the cast. I don't usually like things with rerees, but it was great.

People that base their entire lives around hating white "cisgender" males, regularly claim they should go extinct or be punished for things that happened centuries ago...flinch at the slightest joke poking fun at them. But what do you expect from the mentally deranged narcissists denying biology?

I enjoyed it.

It's plain to see that he's a troll and wants to get people going over nothing. It's the oldest "stick and stones but words can never hurt me" thing that most everyone knows.

Like you've said, it seems that all of his jokes are meant to attack people who are going to be shocked by them. He doesn't seem to generally tell funny stories for the rest of us.

I have always liked his remarks when I've seen him host shows and enjoyed this.

With that being said, I can't imagine someone telling a joke that I flip out about. So, I would like to see who is reacting. Are they teen girls or mental patients?

In 2022, any progressively-minded human being knows that biology and science in general are bigoted and antiquated.

That's what I like about him, it's the genuineness and integrity. It's the same thing as a musician that has built a devote following by word of mouth and always sticking to what they want to write, not acquiescing to public demand or record company pressures (what people would define as 'selling out'). I think as an artist you need to be quite selfish in order for your art to be really genuine.

Just watched it last night, thought it was hilarious. I find it interesting that he addressed exactly what you said regarding words being violence lol. Died laughing at the "You won't ever find a 10 year old tweet saying "Ladies don't have penises", even if it's so true it isn't funny

Also thought it was hilarious how much he was leaning into the "rich white heterosexual male" stereotype and proud of it.

Despite this being BBC, this is actually a decent article with his quotes:https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-61576751.

Being able to laugh at things and ourselves, just generally not taking it all too seriously has always been central to Brit culture and it is sad it is being eroded. I'm glad we have comedians like him that refuse to avoid subjects for fear of the slings and arrows of the woke. He is well liked here for things likeAfter Life. He doesn't deliberately court controversy in bad faith. I really hope many of the daft reactions are from across the pond and not here.

Stuff like this is a real problem. NPCs on twitter will just pick this up and parrot whatever is tweeted without actually watching this themsleves with an unbiased mind. It is too much work I guess, easier to gobble up Joe Rogan = antivax, Jordan Peterson = transphobe and parrot it.

If you can't handle me when I'm incel, you don't deserve me when I'm chad

Being able to laugh at things and ourselves, just generally not taking it all too seriously has always been central to Brit culture and it is sad it is being eroded. I'm glad we have comedians like him that refuse to avoid subjects for fear of the slings and arrows of the woke. He is well liked here for things likeAfter Life. He doesn't deliberately court controversy in bad faith. I really hope many of the daft reactions are from across the pond and not here.

Stuff like this is a real problem. NPCs on twitter will just pick this up and parrot whatever is tweeted without actually watching this themsleves with an unbiased mind. It is too much work I guess, easier to gobble up Joe Rogan = antivax, Jordan Peterson = transphobe and parrot it.

Thanks glaad for the advertisement highlighting the best parts.

Will watch tonight.
