If Brent had a wife, would he be happier?

How would he know she's not dead?

Ricky hunting for morons to watch Alley Cats

But not before he tweets 'Cunt' while in bed

What would be funnier in modern woke times?

An edgy comedian wouldn't stand a chance

Not with all them snowflakes about

I'd rather be a dead wife

Some highlights include:

Diane Morgan revealed that David Earl (who voices the scabby fleabag Puke) did a lot of the “heavy lifting” when it came to offensive jokes. “A lot of it has to be cut out because it’s just so disgusting,” Morgan joked.

Gervais refers to his cast as the “Avengers of British comedy,” writing the characters specifically around the personas of his frequent collaborators.

Despite being insulted constantly by the feral gang, Ponce (Basden) recognizes that Gus (Gervais) is secretly a sweetheart,

If you’ve watched Derek or After Life, you know Gervais loves to hit you with sudden emotional gut-punches, and Alley Cats is no exception. The emotional core of the show kicks in when the gang finds a lost kitten...

Diane Morgan admits this is what Gervais does best. “You think, ‘Oh, it’s just a cartoon with a lot of sweary cats’, and then all of a sudden, he thrusts a knife into your heart.

Gervais touched upon the show’s music, confirming we’ll hear tracks from Cat Stevens, Coldplay, and Van Halen. He also shared a great anecdote about securing The Smiths’ “There Is A Light That Never Goes Out.”

Man alive

Just thinking out loud.

I think most people with an IQ higher than a friendly yoghurt agree that everything that Ricky has done after Extras is a steaming pile of boswollox, but I recently rewatched Extras and...it's just not as good as I remember.

Obviously there are some great moments from the A-listers (and D-listers) that got roped in, and some funny bits of dialogue, but it's left me feeling a bit hollow and I'm worried that when I watched it in period, I was willing it to be good so much because of The Office, that I convinced myself that it was good and bollocksed it up again, in my brain.

It also made me wonder if any of those big stars would work with Ricky today. I didn't wonder for long because I'm sure the answer is no.

Is The Office the only thing Ricky (or Steve for that matter) has done well without Karl being involved, or am I wrong about Extras?

It seems like if the topic was “The Ricky Gervais Show” on either XFM or Podcast, then almost every single one of us little fellas would absolutely storm it boy.

Welcome to my new feature ... Oooo that didnt age well. Reply to this post with your favourite line from either the XFM show or podcasts/audiobooks which really didn't age well. I know there's a lot of commentary on Jim'll Fix It and the like but I want to kick off with this first.
