Ricky Gervais is the hilarious creator and star of such shows as the original british version of The Office and Extras, he is also a great stand-up comic and all-around comedy mastermind. He brings a fresh and hilarious realism to his outlandish ideas and it pays off in being relatable to a wide audience. He never overplays anything, when Ricky feels like it’s time something ends, that’s when it ends, ever wonder why the british Office was only 3 seasons?
