I'm a fan of Ricky. I like pretty much all of his TV series work. I enjoyed season 1 even though it would be low down on his best work list for me. I understand its different. The acing is really good to be fair. And his brother and law, both female interests etc are good also. But here is what left me bemused. I didn't laugh.....atall.. I smirked once or twice, and I watched on diffrernt nights, It pains me to say that. But if anything the show put me on a downer due to the sad parts. they are all good and well if you have just been chuckling. for me , you tipped the balance way too much on the sad side Mr Gervais.. and dare I say it. this was far from his best comedy work. (I get it, its not a comedy) but its not a depression tablet either, Ive got just over an episode to go of season 2, so I hope my mind changes, but been saying that since 15 mins in episode 1. maybe I expected too much, anyway. I must be truthful and will do so for the last episode also. when watched. Still love ye tho rick, for the laughs youv gave.me
