I find Ricky Gervais about as funny as dead llama.

Ricky Gervais is funny as fuck, all his live tours are really good. I saw FAME in brighton and it was fantastic!

Yeah the guys a cock, but he makes me laff.

There is always going to be the camp that doesn't like Gervais.

Personally I am not a fan of The Office, Extras is commendable due to Merchant and when they get a good guest such as Orlando Bloom and Ronnie Corbet he was great.

I love Ricky's stand up stuff not being a natural comedian, am too going to see Fame at the Albert Hall. I especially enjoyed his interviews with Larry David, Garry Shandling and Christopher Guest.

But his XFM and more recently Audible Podcasts are where the magic lies, Karl Pilkington is a very strange and wonderfull bald headed manc. Probed by Gervais and Merchant the banter and ideas are piss funny.

Ricky does good deeds at times, at times it's just that "boring UK humour"(not to be taken too offensively).

His live shows are good.

Didn't want to put Billy Connolly here 'cause A: He's in a different league alltogether and B: Don't know how british types react to him :D

Billy Connolly is pretty funny.

Although strangely, I prefered him when he was off round the world on his bike. Talking about culture, food etc

Ricky Gervais is not a funny man. None of his stuff is the least bit amusing to me.

George Carlin had some quite amusing observations, but I didn't laugh out loud once.

For me, the funniest guy on a stage is Billy Connolly.

Followed by classic shows such as Fawlty Towers, and more recent stuff such as Black Books.

Don't like Ricky Gervais when he's not doing standup. Only time I'll really watch him. (Rarely watched Office/Extras as it was)

Was funny at the Diana concert. He died in front of that audience.

NOW that was comedy, maybe he will get the hint and fuck off :p
