extras

one of the BEST comedies on television. unfortunately for us, ricky gervais and stephen merchant will only write ONE more episode, a finale

they by no means are prolific. there were only six 1/2 hour episodes for season one and six for season two.

if you've NOT seen this series, please rent it (it's also still on demand i believe).

you'll bust a gut laughing

Extras to bow out with final show

Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant have decided they will only write one more episode of their TV comedy Extras.
They will end the BBC Two show with a special finale rather than writing a third series - exactly as they did with their earlier hit, The Office.
"We don't have a date or any details about the cast yet," said a spokeswoman for Gervais, adding that the idea was in its "very, very early" stages.
But "they will, at some point, sit down together and write it", she confirmed. .......

I know so many crazy artists, who do some thing, get it right, people want more, they get bored and want to move on...doing the same thing over and over, even doing it well, that takes a committment that many of us do not have with regularity.

you're right of course and so is ricky. i hate it when something such as a WONDERFUL television show goes way past it's prime. when it's forced.

ricky gervais is amazingly funny. just the looks on his face alone are priceless (don't know if you saw the episode where david bowie was singing a rather not nice song about ricky's character but that is what i'm talking about)
