RICKY GERVAIS WEEK is over, gutted. I hope you had fun catching up with Ricky Gervais and the gang as much as I have. Please visit Ricky’s honest and hilarious blog daily for updates. The City of Films has dedicated a lot of time to Gervais, and it never gets boring. There are many resources out there to get your Ricky fix, may I recommend a few? The Office, Extras, The Ricky Gervais Show (podcast and HBO series), Ghost Town and Cemetery Junction. Need more? He was in an episode of Alias you could watch.
Ricky Gervais is an idol of mine, someone I look up to and who inspires me. He is one of the smartest people I have come across in a long time – I would love to one day just have a chat with him about life. The man has an extensive knowledge of the world whose ideas I find often reflect my own, it’s a great feeling. As a fan I can only do my best to share with you the reasons that you too should appreciate the work of Ricky Gervais, his sense of humor and honesty above are often hard to come by with “celebrities”. He makes it look easy.
He created, wrote, directed and starred in The Office, Extras. Guest starred in Alias and 24. Wrote and starred in The Simpson. Lent his voice to GTA 4, SpongeBob and popped up in both Night at the Museum films and Stardust with Robert De Niro (his hero). He starred in Ghost Town, made his directorial debut with The Invention of lying. He finished his work on his collaboration with long time friend Stephen Merchant on their film Cemetery Junction – these just off the top of my head. He makes his rounds doesn’t he? Enjoy…
HBO has ordered thirteen episodes of a new animated show that will be based on Ricky Gervais’s popular podcast.
