This show restores my faith in humanity. The characters are delightful and the humor is witty. Each episode focuses on another character and shows how, even over a span of a thousand years, people are basically the same. It helps me unwind.

The storyline is good but the photography is annoying. There is glare in every scene. I can hardly pay attention to the show.

Ricky Gervais´s portrayal of depression and coming to terms with the loss of a loved one is brilliant. When I first started watching the series I actually thought that Ricky had written the series in response to a bet or challenge that he couldn´t write something humorous about death. I almost didn´t finish watching it because it was so depressing. But, I am so glad I did. Being an atheist, I feel the same way about life being a gift and that we have to treasure it as long as we can. He gives us hope that we can cope, even after a devastating loss.
