Derek - Series 2 & Final Last Episode

Brilliant.

I came late to the first series, but I've arched it through twice. I thought it was excellent - really looking forward to S2.

What would had been good last night if Karl had played a dual role, for a moment i thought he was the new know-it-all lad with hair, at a distance.
 
Been aware of this show for a while now and missed the first series. Had a a scout about for something to watch tonight on US Netflix, saw this and thought I'd give it a try. 4 back to back episodes later I've found a show that had me laughing one minute and shedding a tear the next. This show is poignant & sad as well as laugh out loud funny. I've found my new favourite show. The more I watch Gervais the more I think the man is a bonafide genius.
Excellent.
 
Just watched the first season on Netflix.

What a beautiful, amazing, and emotive piece of television that was. So impressed. Kerry Godliman who plays Hannah is exceptional and grounds the show in a believable reality. Even Karl Pilkington, who I wouldn't have thought could act, is terrific. Shame he isn't coming back. Love everything about it.

Gervais' impersonation of a severely autistic person occasionally feels fake, but when he acts he really acts. I agree the man is a genius.
 
Ive been putting this off for ages. With the exception of life's too short I like all of gervais' other work. Everyone says it's great but I just can't bring myself to watch it. I'm starting to annoy myself !
 
been a fan of this from the start..

regarding derek having autism ....gervais has been on record a few times...and he said it when I saw him interviewed on bbc breakfast news that the character Derek wasn't written ...or acted with the idea he has any sort of disability.

...just as a very kind guy with a simplistic outlook.. unaffected by the need to appear cool or whatever .
 
Kev simulating sex in the caravan was very funny last night.
The couple going off to have sex is getting old.
It missed Karl Pilkington's presence
