The big missing bit in the middle totally ruins this. Why did Stiller suddenly confront our Ricky? And wasn't our Ricky great in Curb Your Enthusiasm!
well, the writing credits are usually based less on the actual dialogue and more on the idea of the scene and such. it doesn't take into account was was improvised, which I'm sure there was plenty of improvisation on Stiller's part. So... it technically could have still been thought up by Stiller
@SabbateanFrankists Because unlike you I don't just throw questions around on YouTube and research it myself. It is public knowledge. Go out there and find it if you care to. "The series was co-produced by the BBC and HBO, and is created, written, and directed by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, both of whom also star in it. "
@RyanADillon Moron, why do you even respond to shit that's just being thrown around. I research it myself my ass, you don't even know who the fuck YOU are let alone who is who and what is what in this world.
Every TV program Ive ever seen Ben Stiller playing a fictionalized version of himself, he has always been such a prick! This, and in season 4 of Curb Your Enthusiasm he was great, guess he must get a kick out of playing that kind of a role :)
@Gibson29 If he played himself as Mother Theresa, it wouldn't be funny and people would think he had no sense of humour. Playing himself as a prick is funny and people think "At least he can take the piss out of himself". It's win win. Good bit he did in Curb alright, making Larry sit in the front seat because of his own insecurities. I usually prefer Stiller when he plays himself. A lot of his films are terrible. "Along Came Polly" anyone ?
Ben Stiller's contribution is way up there, because while Ian McKellen and Patrick Stuart play frankly bizarre alter-egos, this one is vaguely credible. Same applies to Chris Martin and Orlando Bloom.
Stiller even takes the piss out of one of his own films!
I LOVE how the big-name actors are not only incredibly arrogant, but also really insecure. After Ricky rips him a new one with Starsky and Hutch, Stiller feels like he has to compensate by listing his accomplishments =P
"Each episode has at least one guest star; a television or film celebrity, who play what Gervais and Merchant have referred to as "twisted" versions of themselves; an exaggerated or inverted parody of their famous public personas."
This is funny as . Gervais with the sort of quizical deadpan face is so fuhilariousnny. He must be one of the funniest guys around these days. I haven't seen "extras" but I'll go looking for more. Is it Gervais show ?
If anybody sent you here, you need to take a look in the mirror and examine your life. If Brendon told you to have sex with your brother would you do that too?
PS : Who the fuck is Brendon Urie and why is he twittering something that was broadcast 3 years ago?
Brendon Urie is the lead singer of Panic! at the Disco and maybe he tweeted it cuz he liked the video...you dont have to always post up stuff thats new
I find it funny that people get mad because some are saying they were sent here by Brendon Urie.
If I said I was sent here by my friend no one would think a damn thing of it. Meh.
And yeah, they'll never run out of comment space. It's not like they're going to crash the internet with their comments either, so who is it harming if they want to show Bden some love?
I was just saying.....Why do you have to be so rude?....Damn for reals it's not like I'm saying it to be mean. I like Brendon I just don't like Ben Stiller and it's alright that he likes him...I'm just a little disappointed.
i don't care .. i like brendon for who he is. and this is the reason i'm here. it's also called pure curiosity and the vid is actually funny and is worth watching, so i may sound like a fangirl who goes 'yay brennybear' and stuff but that doesnt mean i don't pay respect to his likes and dislikes. i can hate this video if i want to i'm not liking it just because he does.
