The Ricky Gervais Show

description

Have Nero ever met Hitler ? Why invention of the planes was a bad idea? Is there any other way to create humans? If you consider these questions as funny (not stupid) that means The Ricky Gervais Show is the right type of entertainment for you! Made in typical Hanna-Barbera styled animation shorts which are more likely to remind you the Flintstones, especially when you see Ricky Gervais which animated face look very similar to Fred's one. Another funny character in the show is Karl Pilkington, and here we have to make some break and tell about Pilkington a bit more. As Ricky Gervais, Karl Pilkington is the real person, who was originally hired to assist Ricky and Stephen in some audio-engineering processes while making their show. His outlandish sense of humor and unparalleled thoughts make him a catalyst for Ricky and Stephen duo's performances, which is obviously had led Karl to showbiz. Fascinating jokes about monkeys building spaceships with banana dispenser and chimpanzee performing unbelievable tricks, made "the monkey theme" some kind of "trademark" appearing in each and every episode of the TV show which is super popular now. However everything started with very funny and therefore successful Ricky Gervais' podcasts , which were even get listed in Guinness Book of World Records.

Undoubtfully, cinematography has been my passion since a very young age. Even now, watching a new movie or series always prompts me to ask a lot of questions to the author. Thus, every little essay about a title is definitely not a spoiler, but rather an attempt to explore the idea.

American Dad!

2021
Animation & Cartoons
Either the CIA is just not that cool and relevant anymore, or Seth Macfarlane and associates are still mining the mother lode of 1970s humour as they develop episodes of "American Dad!" for Sunday nights on Fox. Television historians claim animated series have replaced sit-coms as television's principal source of informed social commentary; and "The Simpsons" have replaced "All in the Family" as the nation's premier satire, the weekly litmus test of American values and expectations. "American Dad!" shows little sign of aspiring to that lofty standing. Most episodes set the standard simply at "amusing." CIA agent and uber-patriot Stan Smith, the "American Dad!" anchors a predictably diverse, dysfunctional just-beyond-the-beltway family. Francine, his wife, appears to atone for her wild youth by remaining vacant, mostly boring in contemporary life. Hayley, Stan's college-aged radical daughter, naturally acts-out all the standard forms of late adolescent rebellion and family insurgency. And Steve, not surprisingly, enters puberty eager to live-up to Dad's expectations but congenitally incapable of coming even close. Holding its own in Fox's Sunday night animated line-up, "American Dad!" has improved in its several seasons on the air. Translation: "American Dad!" has evolved from "mediocre" to "not bad" as it has outgrown its abject dependence on cliches and stereotypes, freshened its subject matter and treatment, and drawn sharper edges on its characters. Still, the premises for "American Dad!" showed promise in 1973; in the new millennium, they seem a little tired.
