Ricky Gervais: SuperNature

I've been waiting for this, Netflix's had a looong dry spell on comedy and good stuff overall.

Ricky's as funny and edgy as ever, probably the only comedian who never caved at all.

I don't agree on his clearly pandering abortion "stance" (not even sure why that's a topic in comedy nowadays) but there's this shocking thing where we can disagree on a thing and still like the comedy and the comedian.

His cat bit was spot on, I've been saying to cat people forever that if their dumb cat was huge it'd kill 'em without remorse. Dogs rule, lol.

Yeah. If you've seen his previous special Humanity this is kind of more of the same, even the set and his clothes are pretty much the same, but I guess not everyone has to make each special look and feel radically different when there's a good tried and tested formula behind it.

It's a fun special, that's the most important bit. It's not your average propped-up Netflix comedian telling far-left statements for applause, it's a comedian doing daring jokes. Tell me that's not refreshing.
