Benthejockey Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 I liked the office when it came out but I cannot stand the insidious little worm of a man. All his anti shenanigans aside his performance at the golden globes last night was at best rude. He was trying to be funny and failed miserably.

walshie Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 I'm not a fan of his, but I thought he owned it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Clavata Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Never been a fan. There was something on recently where it was funny for a while but comedy based on constantly saying outrageous things has a pretty short "humour span" in my book. Always thought he's got a face that is crying out to be punched. He also seems to be a proponent of over-use of the C word, which I think should be reserved for exceptional use, again, very limited talent...

Thunderbird Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 I don't like him very much at all, that said he had a pretty good article in The Spectator before Christmas going on about people getting too offended and the 'snowflake' generation, in that, he was dead right.

Duckandswing Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 I really didn’t much care for him, but his Netflix series After Life was quite good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick miller Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Ricky knows all about being woke and hypocritical. Active campaigner to get so-called 'trophy hunting' banned, completely ignores the benefits that the cash brings to help preserve and encourage the recovery of endangered species. Completely fails to offer a viable alternative. Completely ignores requests to put his hand in his pocket, given he's so keen to preserve wildlife, and save up to 10 giraffes, all set to be culled (Ricky has a net worth of around $130 million, so not exactly short of a few bob). Typically he, like all the others, kept his hands in his pockets. But it's okay, the giraffes were shot, the fess paid, future conservation funded, locals fed. If you want to find out more look for Jens Ulrick Høgh on Facebook, he has an on-going blog regarding the issues around hunting, trophies and the knee-jerk virtue signallers who are oh so vocal.

The thing is he seems to get very offended by numerous things himself (which appears to be a common trait among people oft accusing others of being snowflakes).

MrPhantom Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 It seems I could be in the minority on here as I like the guy. Very funny stand up routines and After Life was one of the best shows I watched last year. He has always thrived on being controversial and and I'm looking forward to seeing his performance on the Globes later. Yes, he is outspoken on animal rights issues but he is entitled to his opinion (as we all are). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yates Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 I’ve gone the other way. I used to think he was a bit a knob but have enjoyed some of his later stuff, extras, derek and afterlife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spurs 14 Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Never really liked the fella or the stuff he done , people raved about the office but I never could get into it , agree with previous comment about him and a few other loud mouth antis suddenly being very quiet over that open letter inviting them to buy those animals that were due to be culled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scully Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Whilst I don’t agree with him regarding his opinion of trophy hunting and those who shoot for trophies, I do enjoy his stage acts, and have laughed out loud at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Never liked the office, did like the moaning of life and the one he made about loosing his wife,that was hilarious. As a person I find him very annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discobob Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Do you remember that thing he done for the Royal Family - on stage - watched about 5 minute and turned it off - like others I can't take to the guy in any shape or form 😞 My youngest (14) is funnier than he is (just waiting to hear if he has been selected for Britains Got Talent). Somebody asked me what side of the family he gets his humor from - I said the Milkman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Best Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 I can’t bear Gervaise. He has never, ever managed to make me laugh even once. As said above annoying/would soon be punching him And that was before I learned from this thread that he is an anti. Why am I not surprised?

Danger-Mouse Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Some of his standup is funny but I'm no fan of his tv work. I've just watched the highlights of last night and I thought he was pretty funny. As it appeared did one of his victims, Di Caprio. I would have liked to see more of the audience reactions though. If you hire a comedian known for doing quite brutal comedy don't be surprised when he turns that wit on a privileged audience. Shockers gonna shock. Anyway as it was his last year, may I suggest Frankie Boyle for next year's host? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudpatten Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Objectionable little man who should be prosecuted under the Trades Description Act for calling himself a comedian when he patently isn`t funny! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
