When 'Tonight Show' host Jimmy Fallon conscripted guest Ricky Gervais into playing a round of Word Sneak, which requires players to "sneak" offbeat words into everyday conversations without laughing so hard their guts bust, Gervais managed to quite effortlessly insert his first word without too much trouble. Things went downhill from there, quite frankly, and never really recovered.
Perhaps not as flashy as its Netflix counterparts like 'Orange is the New Black' or 'House of Cards,' Ricky Gervais' quiet dramedy 'Derek' earned a considerable amount of praise in its inaugural season, at least enough to merit a second season this May. Now, the first trailer for 'Derek' season 2 has hit, showcasing more than a few changes in store for the simple nursing home worker.
Disney joined in on the game day fun by premiering a 'Muppets Most Wanted' Super Bowl trailer, which takes a note from its previous trailers by debuting a sampling of Twitter reviews for similar comedic effect. So, ready to hear what @KevKoast315 has to say about the new movie?
You can't keep a good frog down. After writer/star Jason Segel left the 'Muppets' sequel to work on other projects, Kermit, Gonzo, Miss Piggy, Fozzie and the gang pressed ahead with 'Muppets Most Wanted' and brought some famous friends - namely Ricky Gervais, Tina Fey and Ty Burrell - along with them. Today, you can get your first look at the trailer for the all new Muppet adventure.
The Muppets are back -- and they're not alone -- in the new 'Muppets 2' poster. Funnyman Ricky Gervais of Golden Globes-hosting fame, Ty Burrell of 'Modern Family' and Tina Fey herself make up the non-Muppet cast for the 'Most Wanted' sequel of the coming year.
We all appreciated, even loved, NBC's version of 'The Office,' the show that launched Steve Carell's career and a million "that's what she said" quips. But for some, there was never any replacing the original 'Office' or Ricky Gervais' David Brent, a character for whom saying the worst thing at the worst time was as natural as breathing. A lot of us miss Brent and would like to see him return ... and we might get a chance to on the big screen!
Netflix's recent Emmy recognition had only just begun before the critically acclaimed 'Orange is the New Black' hit the scene, so will Ricky Gervais' controversial new series 'Derek' continue the streak? The streaming service has released a full trailer for its latest original series, though it remains to be seen if viewers will latch on Gervais' simple 'Derek' as they have his past protagonists.
The gang is all back together in the first 'Muppets 2' trailer, featuring Kermit, Miss Piggy, Ricky Gervais and many more!
'The Muppets' sequel is moving along at full-speed, and following the announcement last week that 'Modern Family's Ty Burrell joined the cast, now comes word that Ricky Gervais is in talks to play one of the human leads as well.
Ricky Gervais’ comedy routines may be a bit offensive to some celebrities, but he is largely a warmhearted individual who wouldn’t hurt a fly. That is why it is so ‘shocking’ to see the funny man send an electric jolt through T4 host Steve Jones, during this hilarious interview.
In the words of Ricky Gervais, “The Golden Globes are to the Oscars like Kim Kardashian is to Kate Middleton, bit louder, bit drunker, bit trashier, and more easily bought. Allegedly. Nothing’s been proved.” That was pretty much the host’s theme for the entire evening.
Shocker, Ricky Gervais was not on his best behavior as the Golden Globes host. Fortunately for the other stars in the audience, he wasn’t as bad as he could have been. That didn’t seem to matter to Madonna when it came time for her to take the stage.
