Life's too Short

Has anybody else been watching it ?

It is the new comedy written by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant featuring Warwick Davies.

Just wondered if anyone else has watched it and what they think ? It has mixed reviews from what I've heard/read.
I have enjoyed it so far personally, it has grown on me (No pun intended). It is funny, cringe worthy, awkward and tasteless in places. All the traits of a Ricky and Stephen sitcom.

yh seen it its quiet funny warwick is a joker and hes secetary has sum funny lines too glad it hasant been too overtaken by the celebrity cameos

i have seen the trailers and various clips i dont find it funny except for when johnny depp had ago at the fat ugly twat gervais. i dont find gervais or merchant funny.

I really liked the first episode with Liam 'Deadpan' Neeson. The next two, not so much. I'll stick with it though

I imagine if you don't like Stephen and Ricky you won't like this. Although you might be pleased to know they barely feature.


Strident - I'd stick with it, I found the programme odd at first but I enjoy it now and take it for what it is. It has grown on me, you can still watch all the episodes on BBC i-player

wodenssun - glad ya like it mate, Warwick is superb in it. Really funny guy

it's ok, funny in places but i think it's too much like the office... just without the office, they've basically made warwick to be david brent.... well, i think so, anyway

It's not bad. Nothing original about it I'm afraid and the celeb appearances are a bit forced but Warwick Davis is very good, and his secretary is fantastic.

The girl who plays his Secretary was in This is England and Shameless cant think of her name though

Warwick Davis is good but let's face it, C3PO had more gags in Return Of The Jedi than this series has.

Not exactly ground breaking comedy but enjoyable all the same.I even like the basic dwarf jokes.
