Elizabeth Bruce

Been a huge fan for years, this was a bit of a disappointment. The irony of Gervais spending the whole show attacking grievance culture when all he did was air his grievances, resentments, complain and whine. A few of the jokes were classic Gervais, delivering a gut punch along with a huge laugh on sensitive topics, but most of the show was quite unfunny. Why these guys feel the need to punch down is beyond me. Gervais also has some glaring blind spots, and is misinformed about topics. He's identified that there are topics that bother him, but was too lazy to do the thinking to flesh out why. As a result, the jokes on those topics are pointless and fall flat. A lot of the material is well worn and tired. While he focused for a long time on particular topics that one has to wonder why he finds them so fascinating and worth spending such a large chunk of the special on. Overall, not worth making an effort to watch.
