Ok, to make myself clear he has CULT status and will always be known as a comedy GREAT.

Quote: Martin Holmes @ December 8 2008, 11:06 AM GMTAngus made a few digs, when he was talking about 30 Rock he said "The one American comedy not to be ruined by a cameo appearance by Ricky Gervais" and when Eva Mendes was introduced as Ricky Gervais' number one fan he said "A title Ricky is not likely to give up so easy".
Oh those did amuse me so. 
Quote: Martin Holmes @ December 8 2008, 11:06 AM GMTit comes across as a way to sneer and belittle the other comedians that are actually there.

Can you honestly see his name being listed with the likes of Barker, Rossiter, Lowe, Morecambe, Dawson?
Not a chance.

For all his faults, his name already deserves to be alongside them.
I find award shows very boring. I hear it's even worse to be at them.
Who is Lowe please?

I don't know. Goodie bags galore, free booze and oodles of avaliable women in an inebriated state? Sounds okay to me.

Alice Lowe.
Hee.

Not a chance.
Well said, Aaron!

You are dead to me.
Am I too? 
Oh HIM.
Quote: zooo @ December 8 2008, 2:38 PM GMTThe only people annoyed by that to the extent that they should overlook his work, are retards.
(Unless you're annoyed by it Aaron, in which case it's retards and yummy people.)
Ha! 
The person and the art are separate.
BRING BACK Help!

No one is are they? Those that like his work still do and those that don't still don't.....but those that liked HIM and his work may now like him less. Will he care? No....but if we only speak about things we know others will care about then the world wll be a quiet place, for one.....you won't post a response to my comment!
