Ricky Gervais recycled a 15-year-old joke in his new Netflix show "After Life."

>Some fans on Twitter said "it's a shame" and "a bit lazy" to repeat old lines.
>Gervais also reuses a proverb which co-host Stephen Merchant told on their radio show in 2009.

LOL

How creatively bankrupt is this guy? I'm starting to think that Merchant is the HBK of this tag team.

british louis ck was always shit

karl > ricky > steve

Gervais doesn't support the liberal progressive agenda so the media is looking for any excuse to rake him over the coals. Just like they did with Jerry Seinfeld.

well at least he didn't steal said joke

I don't really give a fuck about what this wow i'm so smart i'm an atheist motherfucker has to say

Has anyone watched the show? I skipped the one where Gervais was retarded from a few years ago

ok

This feels like a forced controversy.

>be musician
>fans get upset if you play songs from your new album
>be comedian
>faggots on the internet call you a fraud for repurposing an old joke

Comedians develop bits they initialy thought in podcasts. There's literaly no problem with this.

Isn't this like half the netflix specials? They go out of their way to dig up old hunks of coal. You shouldn't expect a completely fresh set.

>be human
>get a slap on the wrist if you bite human
>be dog
>get put down if you bite human

wtf?

Wtf they talking about I've been telling the same jokes about blacks and Jews for years and all my mates love it

true, he was one of the only comedians to object to that guy getting arrested for the nazi pug joke

his time will be up soon

I barely remember what I said last week never mind 15 years a go, this is just sensationalism

How long is his special? 1 hour? A proverb is like 5 seconds long.

Weird innit?

this

I thought atheists liked recycling.

Lmao

No stupid. Aethiests like pretending like they don't believe in god. They even pray for strength to stay a strong aethiest, conflating their entire testicular fortitude with lulz.

>Autheists don't believe in God
>Spend their waking moments talking more about God than religious people

They're a cult.

wtf I love God and pollution now

>Local man reiterates something after almost 2 decades

Call the police

using old material in your show was a universal practice among stand up comedians up until about a decade ago. just look at any boomer comic.

Any comedian with a show has always repeated some part of their act into their show.

What was the joke and proverb?

If I recall correctly, Baddiel did too, didn't he?

>OI BRUV, YOU GOTTA LICENCE FOR THAT JOKE

im no espert here, eses, but I theenk is because it was someone elses joke, si

I've been listening to his podcasts on a loop for 15 years and i didn't spot it.

It wasn't. RTFA you mongoloid.

I didn't even know he made a joke in the past 15 years

Boomer comics could make an entire career off of one joke.

Hey, fuck you, Louis is miles better. He's actually a good writer and a decent director. Watch Horace and Pete, it's really good.
Gervais is trash for 15-year-olds.

Yes, a joke that his WRITING PARTNER told on HIS radio show.

Some of us knew that all along. Enjoying watching this neckbeard cunt crash and burn.

If this was true, how come netflix gave him a show, you mentally deffective retard?

still not his joke, m8

Why do you hate yourself?

>british comedian is overrated
whoa stop the presses

Plenty of comedians do full fresh sets. Stop defending laziness. Most workshop it a while before doing a new set, they do their old with some new jokes and slowly replace it all, but when you do a taping, it should be all new.

What a retarded non-issue. Woody Allen used to work his stand-up bits into his movies all the time.

He's done you again Steve

>Gervais doesn't support the liberal progressive agenda
He's British and not in jail so I doubt it.

Watching it having seen his stand up specials, I felt like maybe 1 in 3 jokes were original

>Be painter
>People call you a hack fraud for releasing a new piece that's just a tracing of your old one

wtf

This. His fat jokes all came from that one special and were repeated almost verbatim. His religious stuff as well is an amalgamation of his specials and his twitter rants and comments in the moaning of life.
It was alright, but pretty fucking lazy

It was a proverb you mong.

This show is a great watch if you're depressed or suicidal, deals with a lot of bad stuff I at least had on my mind. Probably not very interesting if you're fine in the mental health area.

Is the Office the only thing of lasting value Gervais has on his resume?

the pleb forgets extras

What is the show about?

To make money, fuckface

steve>karl>ricky

The joke was from his stand up where he mentioned seeing a headline that said '93 year old scared for life'. The punchline being if she lived to 100 she'd only be scared for 7% of her life.

Was it the one about the scarred 93 year old? I clocked that

Which was the recycled proverb?

extras was good aswell, also an idiot abroad. the peoblem is that ricky can only do soap opera with jokes when he's writing alone

The show is ok, but it does feel like he just strung together a story to fit in all of his standup/talkshow material.

fluffy literaly ends his last special telling one of his first joke all over again

After Life is much better than Derek. Derek wasn't really funny, and it tried to pull at your heartstrings too much. It was interesting to see Karl acting, although he left after the first episode of the second season. It still doesn't compare to the Office or Extras though. A bit better than Life's Too Short.

Fuck I forgot about Life's too Short, never saw it. Wasn't it terrible?

Unironically, nice reference

I mean his HBO show was literally just the podcast, but animated. It was still great because it introduced a whole new group of people to Karl Pilkington.

>getting arrested for the nazi pug joke

Life's Too Short is pretty funny. It's pretty much just making fun of Warwick Davis for being a midget the whole time. I respect Davis a lot for that

I wouldn't call it terrible. If you're a fan of Gervais and Merchant's style, you'd probably like it.

Nah it was pretty funny.

The truth is that even if Merchant is still a bit better by himself than Ricky by himself they jut can't reach the heights they did when they were together.

Hope they would get over their retarded silent feud and worked together again.The whole Karl thing has already ran it's course anyway.

What do you really think about Warwick Davis though?

This

Isn't his whole deal these days to be a woke atheist vegan or some shit like that? Seems like basic Hollywood values to me

Eyes bulging with imagined riches

more like a non-troversy

why fucking cares?

He's in Willow which is one of my favorite movies. He's a cool guy

he's of the (mostly) same opinion as rogan that most shit is fair game in comedy. But he'll retract much quicker than rogan if the subject is a little too edgy for him. And he tends to fold to peer pressure a lot quicker. Watching that thing with seinfeld, rock, CK and him was painful. Because it's blatantly obvious he's the annoying one and the rest are just trying to have a pleasant conversation.

I really just want Gervais to make more stand-up specials. The last one where he BTFO trannies was both hilarious for the jokes and also for the outrage and whining from progressive outlets

Let me guess. It was something about believing in one god less than Christians or something equally illuminating. Yeah he's repeating the same stuff glad somebody noticed.

Never seen this, torrenting now

I'd love to kick Warwick Davis in the head. Just take a few steps run up then catch him with the full force of my steel capped toe under his chin, send that little faggot flying through the air.

As he lies on the floor, coughing and wheezing and chocking on his own blood, his jaw a mangled mess of bones detached from the rest of his skull, I stand over him and laugh wickedly. He looks up at me in fear and pain, his eyes searching, begging me for mercy. He finds none. I raise my boot then stomp down, splitting his skull like a melon and finally ending his pathetic life.

He has to play ball.
He walked the line like a good boy, much like joe Rogan who even die a 360 for the past year to push his Netflix stuff forward.
But the left I not a single entity.

>he's the annoying one and the rest are just trying to have a pleasant conversation
Seinfeld was the most insufferable one, actually.

Not surprising. He loves to repeat his same fedora drivel over and over again.

Remember her from TV a long time back. Would have absolutely destroyed that milf pusy.

Exactly this. I mean a joke from 15 years, nobody could just shrug their shoulders and figure he might have fucking spaced it out?

Louis ck is at the same level of talent. They're both shit.

its so sad watching gervais now. His schtick got old years ago. Also lots of stand up comedians, even big ones like Gervais recycle a few jokes from past sets.

His take downs on the golden globes was great though. Wished he'd hosted the 2018 post weinstein

Karl >>> Trash > Steve >>> Ricky

Isn't this a flimsy complaint?

Do people really not know how stand up works? Go to the same open mic 2 weeks in a row and you will hear the same people tell the same jokes over and over again.

He's been reusing xfm jokes for over a decade now. His first two stand ups were almost all xfm material.

Doesnt karl have a new show? Is it good?

>dude the big bang just happened for no reason there’s no evidence for something like this being able to happen whatsoever but just believe it bro ahahahha
>WTF you think some sort of force willed it? fucking retard lmao

Badile hates free speech. He’s a Jewish fan of an antisemitic football club and he complains about the Jewish football club calling themselves yids in a type of i’m Spartacus type way.
You don’t know how and you know it.

He literally never had anything, the only good stuff he did was with Merchant and all of his solo stuff is unbelievably dire. Pilkington is unironically a far more talented and intelligent person than this fool.

What about Derek?

>Gervais doesn't support the liberal progressive agenda

Lol. You're an idiot.

>Some fans on Twitter
A lot of people blame Reddit for the degradation of this site but I think Twitter has been worse. It generates these faggy clickbait pieces that niggers like OP rush to repost to farm (You)s like a tertiary snowball.
