Season 2 is even better than Season 1
My wife and I watched Season 1 and laughed and cried our way through it. I'm having to do Season 2 on my own as my wife's three year struggle with cancer recently ended. I find his detailed understanding of the grief amazingly accurate. Tony's pain seeps through the screen. Ricky is a genius and an authentic human being.

Gives you a new perspective
I watched the show in one sitting. It is challeging. It makes you think with great humor. It has its dramas. It will make you almost cry while making you laugh. It's genius and I recommend you watch it if you think you are depressed or you see no point in life. And I guess it's greatest characteristic is that its honest.
Ricky Gervais does it again
I've liked every one of Ricky Gervais's productions that I've seen, and now I can add "After Life" to that. It's a clever yet bittersweet series. Definitely check it out if you get a chance.
If I could give this a higher score I would
Ricky Gervais knows how to make you laugh and ugly cry, sometimes together. I think this is my favorite of his series. He speaks right to the dark, sad, and angry part in all of us. He also shows us that everyone is beautiful.
The series is beautifully shot, the cast is fantastic and each character has a slow reveal from who they are in Tony's eyes to who they really are. It's beautifully done.
Only Ricky Gervais can pull off shows like After Life and Derek. I hope he gives us more.

Beautiful, sad, and funny
An almost unbelievable mix of beauty, sadness, and laughs. The characters are well cast and have great chemistry. The premise is heartbreaking but so many beautiful moments happen, you can almost forget. A lovely show on loss, love, and keeping going.
