Why are people hating on Ricky Gervais? Bo Selecta Is a show that has massive face masks for a reason. they are caricatures. Just because he's ripping into them it doesn't mean he hates them. Gervais has probably seen this and enjoyed it, he worked for channel 4 around the same time on a show that he wrotes with Jimmy Carr who also writes for this show, don't you haters know anything!? JEEZ
@mgeorge733 didnt answer my question. who has got a better career? simple i actually like bo selecta i was just messing with my comment. i love how morons have to swear to get a point across. take care and be merry!
@anyhitchcock They have completely different careers! I'm sure Gervais is richer.. Madonna/Elton John/Eminem/Ozzy/ and most other characters Bo Selecta parodied also have much more worldwide recognition. Personally I think Leigh Francis is a bit of a bellend but I loved Bo Selecta at the time and still do, but the Keith Lemon thing is shit though, so I dont watch it on here or TV. I Me too, swearing is cool as fuck.
@gingerwarrior123 I didn't say Matt Lucas was crap, you fucking retard. I said Leigh Francis sounded like him rather than Rickey Gervais. Are you fucking stupid or just illiterate? Now fuck off!
Funny enough, but it's not like Merrion added anything. Gervais is funny with or without this irrelevant skit. Still, I bloody love his Jacko skits. They're legendary. How he came up with the idea that Michael Jackson should speak ebonics like some wannabe gangsta from Compton, I'll never know, but it's genius.
@rorrt spike milligan was a pioneer of comedy so ofc it would be absurd , i just dont like gervais , he plays the same character in everything he does and i just cant watch him in anything since the office , which in my opinion is not the greatest british comedy and doesnt come close, but then again some of mates cant get enough of gervais so different strokes for different folks
@rrrorkk he does seem tobe one dimensional... liked the office but its nowhere near the greats like blackadder, fawlty towers and only fools... but i think the characters were well written in the office, apparently (according to my missus) its exactly what its lke in an office...
yes rod stewart does a version and paul weller as well,thanks for correcting me swifty with your input.i think its actually the paul weller version on the office
nuyenifilm i dont think you get it, Bo Selecta is not about getting characters completely correct, it is about taking bits from celebrities and reenacting some of their traits or actions in very obscure ways, and is in my opinion genius and very funny. Check out Pete Docherty and his addiction to biscuits...
The boxing gloves are Lee Francis's take on the famous scene in the office where does that ridiculous dance for charity and he's air punching etc. I think some of the characters that he does are genius, u just gotta read between the lines like with Ricky Gervais's humour
I know...but in this sketch, Leigh Francis is taking the piss out of Ricky Jervais.. I was being sarcastic to StandTogetherForever as he was stating the obvious.
Ricky doesn't suck - he's a genius. But probably too intellectual for most of you. Bo selecta makes me cringe and his accent was ALL WRONG! He's already fatter than gervais without that mask he hides behind and is much less successful - I don't recall him doing films with robert de niro and ben stiller lol.
Fucking proper bo.Im in Australia and ive seen The Office, so those who think this isnt funny either havent seen the office, or are uncultured fucks with no sense of what is funny or not. fucking ass jockeys.
yea whose the guy who said Dumbfucks/Pieces of Dog Shit? i understand if you don't like bo selecta but I love it and its a bit strange that he would be looking at this if he hates it. Why does he assume that everyone who watches this is a "dumbfuck" or a piece of shit? anyways he's scum and i love this parody.
Shows how old this is, doesn't it? Nowadays I'm pretty sure anyone would recognise Gervais right away.
