We watched the third series on Netflix last night.  It is a black comedy by Ricky Ghervais and I thought it was very good.

I normally enjoy black comedy and the blacker the better but the Gervais bloke just isn't funny. Mind you, it might just be that I can't stand to watch him for long enough..

Ever watch the Inside Number 9 series zoony. A real smorgasborg of humour using the same set of actors and some of it quite dark. I think they may even have written it.

Not usually fond of Gervais myself but I do have all of the After Life series sitting on a hard drive waiting for a period of tedium.

Only ever managed to watch and enjoy 'Extras' which I enjoyed muchly. Rob Brydon is another I can't stand and I really don't know why.. :hmm:

I didn't like him in The Office but thought that After Life was very well written.
