Ricky Gervais: Armageddon

I was eager to see the show as Gervais is one of my favorite comedian. I was hoping for a little more fun and well thought jokes but what I was afraid of, kind of happened: that the show would not be at the same level as the previous ones. Did I spoil myself? Maybe, but it felt that most of the material was just old jokes "reworded" in a different way or not "well refined". I'm not condemning it much since I realize that it's not easy to surpass yourself or stay at certain levels.

I'm for sure not the kind of person that gets offended by jokes and confirm that I didn't, so me not being particularly impressed by the show has nothing to do with that matter.

Felt a bit like a money grab show but who cares... better than nothing.

I still like Gervais, as I share most of the points of his jokes... those that have one of course.

Ricky was right about that joking about the horrible stuff in life makes it a bit more bearable to deal with. This is dark humor, so it's definitely not for the easily offended people.. not everyones cup of tea.

I love Ricky, and I thought that Armageddon was good.. but it was definitely not his best. It was quite underwhelming, to be completely honest.. I enjoyed Humanity, Supernature and After life way more than this one. I really wanted to love Armageddon just as much as I love the other netflix stand-up specials, but it didn't happen this time.. it's okay though. Everybody has different preferences and tastes when it comes to most things in life. I'll just keep my hopes up that there will be more netflix specials from Ricky in the future.

I love Ricky, his other stand ups, presenting, series etc. Have all been some of my favourite comedy to watch. This felt a little repetitive though. His view on 'anything goes' when telling jokes, is something I fully believe in, but to convince the audience of his beliefs on this, he really pushed things to the limit. Many parts were truly cringeworthy! In addition, I feel that he knows many are critical of him, and this whole stand up was in response to them and their issue with him. What happened to silly Ricky? I miss those jokes! Next time, keep it light, let us laugh at something intelligent and not just constant controversy.

Not afraid to say it as it is, or as he thinks it is, Ricky Gervais is back on Netflix, and another comedy special.

Maybe not as sharp or funny as the last one, but still some very memorable moments and laugh out loud jokes. Ricky daring to say what many people think, but are too afraid to admit to.

I am stunned that he's still featuring on Netflix, his 'Brand' of humour doesn't exactly seem to fit in with the company's image.

He doesn't hold back, ripping into everyone, and he says, it's alright to laugh at things, it doesn't necessarily mean it's your opinion. Many people have lost the ability to laugh, it's sad.

He's about the only stand up comedian left that's actually funny and original.

8/10.

There were some good ones, the best one even improvised. But it was to much explaining about jokes not actual jokes. The audience seemed to cheer every anti woke opinion. Fair enough. But Ricky you can do better. Sad thing is that perhaps the bar of whats funny or not has been lowered but I still have to give it a 6/10. And Im being nice. The culture seems to be more focused on issues and politics nowadays than actual punchlines, buildup and all that. Everyones doing the same and they got it all from somebody else. Now as I said there was still a few good laughs a little further into the special. I know comedy is hard and Im just a critic. But when Ive seen his earlier specials and other comedians tearing the roof of I gotta be objective about it.
