Whilst not as good as season 1, After Life is a great continuation to an awesome show.
Ricky Gervais does carry this show. He does deliver his best work in this show. Not only as an actor but as writer and director as well. Everyone is great in this show as they were in season 1.
The tone is perfect. Combining the comedy and tragedy really well. The comedy isn't as perfect in this season but it really does deliver most times. It also proves my point that British comedy is always better than American comedy.
It's more or less the same kind of story from season 1, just with further development to the characters. It works 90% of the time. For a show that I didn't think needed a second season, it really did surprise me
Nothing feels forced about the tragedy. It feels natural and authentic. The comedy doesn't try to be hard to be funny, which is also a bonus. The finale was seriously amazing. It was actually sad.
One of my favourite things about the show is when Lenny, Tony and Sandy visit people for the news articles. That's genuinely comedy gold.
Overall it's not as great as the first season but it still delivers. Ricky Gervais is great here and I can't wait for Season 3.
