Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 28th May 2020After Life - a heavenly return or a hellish flop?
Once I had discovered After Life was returning for a second season, I felt both excited and intrigued. I thought the first season was brilliant and had potential to develop plots further, but I also wondered how Ricky Gervais could expand upon the first season's rather conclusive ending.
