I hate when famous celebrities do cameos and just do absolutely nothing. I would’ve had more respect for this clown and other clowns if they took themselves less seriously and leaned into being absurd versions of themselves. Like Lary David and the other celebs in Curb
Extras was great for this. I know it’s Ricky Gervais, but seeing A Listers play absurd versions (more absurd versions) of themselves was hilarious
Mentioning Ricky Gervais summons this James Acaster bit.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
i have never watched curb before but holy cow this scene you linked is hilarious
A lot of the show is improv, and there are some problematic moments that extend beyond the offensive nature of the show, but if you can bare some drawn out scenes or lib moments, there are lots of gems in it. I can’t speak for recent seasons though (been going since the late 90s/early 2000s so I’m sure it’s reached dead simpsons level)
