Ricky is indeed a veritable lion in the jungle of apparently prim and proper actors who believe they are above the laws of comedy. <br /><br />Gervais is just a lion for simply exhibiting the chutzpah to stand in a room absolutely full of people and stare them in the face and make fun of them. <br /><br />When some of the angrier actors start removing the sticks that seem to be maintaing their posture, they'll realize good comedy is just good comedy.Mike Tanasychukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06052036704832800072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6285930287778705862.post-64283533987764658292011-01-19T20:20:45.700-06:002011-01-19T20:20:45.700-06:00I don't have television at my apartment so I d...I don't have television at my apartment so I didn't get a chance to see all of this, though I wish I had.<br /><br />All I have to say is, if Ricky Gervais says it it's probably right.<br /><br />He's just awesome that way, and people need to lighten up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6285930287778705862.post-79318636258682395052011-01-19T15:11:14.157-06:002011-01-19T15:11:14.157-06:00I totally agree.

The only reason I could watch the show without feeling dirty was because of how he kept things in perspective: This IS just a mostly fun but ridiculous show about mostly ridiculous people. <br /><br />I felt DeNiro was on the same page too with his acceptance speech.Janellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05525489943621898301noreply@blogger.com
