Tell me your thoughts on Ricky Gervias and his comedy.
If you like edgy, awkward humor, you'll probably love him.
Ricky Gervais is witty and clever, I think he could perhaps be the British equivalent of George Carlin
I love his work but Karl Pilkinton is the best thing he’ll ever create.
One of the best comedians out there, never saw the show
Not very familiar with him. I think I first learned of him from this video, which is hilarious (and not on YouTube; not sure what snotr is, but hope it doesn't have a virus: [snotr.com]
Video is the one where he reads the Bible, I found it by searching "Gervais reads Genesis" or "reads the Bible" in case you don't trust my link (or if it doesn't work).
He's wonderfully irreverent in every way, not only with regard to religion. His treatment of other celebrities and Hollywood in general when he hosted the Golden Globes was hysterical and he bordered on outright contempt for the whole spectacle. Hilarious!
