Was average at best, very poor for Gervais. IMHO.

He's in Game of Thrones!
I actually did like that. Most drug use in popular fiction ends in a huge downward spiral into addiction and life-wreckage. There are plenty of people that take drugs on a recreational basis and go about their lives with no bother. Obviously I’m not suggesting heroin is a good choice for the recreational user (it’s just a bit too moreish), but plenty of people are on opioid pain relief and manage to live normal lives.One of my favourite things about it that he smoked a bit heroin and then went to work the next day nee bother.

It’s a lazy trope in fiction.
You don't take heroin the become a junky the next day mate.
He doesn't hoy that much cash around either.
Your post is unrealistic marraThat annoyed me too - he takes heroin a bit and it has no lasting effect?
Helps a junky die and isn't arsed
Hoies cash around like it doesn't matter yet has a canny shit job
So unrealistic
Why would taking a little heroin have a lasting effect?
It’s a piece of television, with good and bad bits. I don’t want realism when I’m searching for escapism through my television.

All nicked from his Xfm radio shows and podcasts. Lazy as fuck.
to be fair mate, thats possible
A grown man choosing to take drugs is too far, but threatening to smash a primary school's head in with a hammer is okay?Didn’t think it needed the drugs bit with H in mind

I thought for one moment he'd got Carl Pilkington to do another podcast.This looks like it could be worth a watch
Cheers mate, appreciate the reply!I thought for one moment he'd got Carl Pilkington to do another podcast.
Other than that, I have no time for Ricky Gervais.
You’re missing the point about realism.Its growing on me a bit
People need to remember its a comedy show, so aye obviously its unrealistic, it would be far too depressing and edgy if it was true to life
Its cliched obviously but its not bad.
Yeah good point that. It's not a documentary is it.
I can think of a handful of shows in the history of television that were actually realistic when you thought about it
to be fair mate, thats possible
Agreed with you initially but I've enjoyed it more like, some of it is rehashed and some nearly all of the characters are slapstick and one dimensional but I actually like it now.
I always enjoy good use of music in any television or film
Cheers mate, appreciate the reply!
Me as well, one person dissecting it who thought Arctic Monkeys latest album was amazing (wtf) and someone else arguing that there were too many staff in the office for a free newspaper ffs!
Thought it was sentimental but so fuck, it struck an almighty chord with me
