Extras: Season 02 (2007)
Member Rating:  
What happens when an unknown actor who can't catch a break actually catches one? For stand-in extra Andy Millman (Ricky Gervais), who's just broken through with a TV sitcom called When the Whistle Blows, celebrity doesn't necessarily mean happiness -- it just means your follies and faux pas get that much more attention. Adding to the insider feel of the show are the numerous celebrity guest stars, all of whom play fictional representations of themselves. This season's highlight is Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe as a particularly sexed up and flirtatious version of himself. The six-episode season aired in 2006 on HBO, and the DVD set includes bonus features such as an hour-long behind-the-scenes documentary, two featurettes, and outtakes.

This entire show is pure genius, hysterical, laugh-out-loud, piss your pants, funny. So worth the rental, but you should go ahead and buy it because you will be showing all of your friends this one. (not for kids!).

An absolutely smashing series. There is news that after a several Yr. hiatus the series is going to be making a comeback with a belated season 3. That would be great news. The series in its second season had improved immensely (not that season 1 was not good) and should have continued. The humor is so very clever here and it is reminiscent of Seinfeld in a way. Guest appearances by famous actors add to the fun.

I'm crazy about the humor of Ricky Gervais. I start laughing just looking at him. This series is especially good. Wish he'd make some more of them.

This so much reminds me of Curb Your Enthusiasm. The guest actors, as in the first round ,make fun of themselves as our characters tread forward into god knows what. Ricky Gervais has surrounded himself with some great comic actors.

Michael O.

Like The Office, which he also created, this Ricky Gervais production requires about half an episode to sort out the characters and understand its comedic rhythm. After that, settle in for a show written for grownups that mixes humor with pathos.

Great show. Not quite as funny as Season One, but still plenty of laughs. The Bowie episode is hilarious.

Yes   |   No

This series is hilarious. I love Ricky Gervais and his dry wit. The third episode was laugh out loud funny.
