Ricky Gervais: SuperNature

I've been waiting for this, Netflix's had a looong dry spell on comedy and good stuff overall.

Ricky's as funny and edgy as ever, probably the only comedian who never caved at all.

I don't agree on his clearly pandering abortion "stance" (not even sure why that's a topic in comedy nowadays) but there's this shocking thing where we can disagree on a thing and still like the comedy and the comedian.

His cat bit was spot on, I've been saying to cat people forever that if their dumb cat was huge it'd kill 'em without remorse. Dogs rule, lol.

Yeah. If you've seen his previous special Humanity this is kind of more of the same, even the set and his clothes are pretty much the same, but I guess not everyone has to make each special look and feel radically different when there's a good tried and tested formula behind it.

It's a fun special, that's the most important bit. It's not your average propped-up Netflix comedian telling far-left statements for applause, it's a comedian doing daring jokes. Tell me that's not refreshing.

Welcome back Ricky! Just what I needed a good laugh and for you to not give a crap about who you offend to entertain. Thanks for calling out all the stupidity and hypocrisy. Just what we need in today's crazy world of what we live in.

7/10.

This special was alright but humanity is still better. A lot of edgy jokes which sometimes feel a little bit too forced. Also I hate it that nowadays every comic has to explain himself. "I dont really mean that. Its a joke." Yeah, thanks mate. I know what comedy is. If someone doesnt get it then screw them.

Luckily Ricky Gervais is around to remind everyone that comedy should be free from restraints and should absolutely challenge the topics which are pressing matters of the day. You'll either like it or you won't, thats whats great about comedy, horses for different courses and freedom of expression.

Something actually decent to watch on Netflix. Refreshing light in the darkness.

There is so much brainwashing content around these days it's nice to hear something different.
