Ricky Gets Burned

[cgirlrocks11]

Hahahahahahahahaha love this so much

[BananaSandwich1]

as much as i hate gervais this is harsh, but funny

[IandmMr]

British humour is the mutts nuts, fookin hilarious, quality!!

[where8angels8play]

Second best sitcom ever made.. Second only to the office.

[ficken22mal]

what is linda saying? just don`t get it!

[marshalllucky]

i think it is real good of richy jarvais to give old bowie a comeback break on these show. sure old bowey is no phil collins but he still has some loyal fans and is probly stil reconised by many older poeple ;-)

[elzashan]

@marshalllucky No phill collins? hahaha! I hope you're having a laugh mate. Bowie is 100 times better than bloody phill Collins!

[marshalllucky]

@elzashan how come you dont see old bowies hands playing this?? collins is an accomplished all round musician who has evolved and doesnt rely on past glories. Also i dont remeber the cadbury gorilla singing a bowie song ;-)

[MrDigbert]

@marshalllucky Phil fuckin Collins LOL!

[vorkutaman]

@marshalllucky troll fail

[FourGirlRumba]

aparently gervias wrote the lyrics?

[HaydnFitzsimons]

@FourGirlRumba yeh probably

[1foottall]

LOL 2:54 my favourite moment

[knightsintodreams]

lololol gawd i love him

[KaijuSlasher13]

oh damn....Bowie has spoken.

[grimlegacie]

This song is ridiculously catchy. I wish it was legitimate

[vorkutaman]

@grimlegacie don't quote me but i think he used the tune from a track from his 'Outside' album, not sure which one as i've never heard the album.

[kakorat21]

@vorkutaman the song is 'Little Wonder'

[MrMerajjio]

PUG PUGGGG

[nogoodnamesleft99999]

PUG PUG

[Petersalmonater]

Darren Lamb, absolute player, just having a little sing song!

[TheGreaterGood80]

If Bowie completely humiliated and roasted in me in front of a large group of people with an improvised song, I would most certainly die a happy man!

[shadowofmorgoth]

he still looks and sounds incredible, god bless him. i laughed pretty hard.

[sclman]

BEST.. TV.. MOMENT....... EVEEEEER

[MissusFingerBottom]

got to love a comedian who can make fun of himself so much.

[3chrds]

even this song sounds good. i just want to hear him sing anything again!

[Robmire]

Ricky should have whacked out his Guitar :) 'Free Love on the Free Love Freeway'

[thezaylady]

Brilliant British humor. The British are not afraid to look like a doofus for a laugh.

[bobbygnosis]

I know exactly how Garvais feels. He takes it like a champ. I'd have thrown drink all over everyone and made a bigger ass of myself.

[benny125125]

One of the best episodes.

[arrghgarry]

This was superb and great of gervais to be set uplike this

[ellvar]

@arrghgarry as Gervais writes the script for the show, I guess he wrote the song too. But brilliantly painful to watch

[Vortex377]

Chubby little loser at the beggining, and look at rickys face its priceless.

[Vortex377]

There making fun of Andy Millman (rickeys character)

[davfc1990]

yes linda i like that

[ritchielee666]

So do I Linda, it's brilliant!

[foxpawz]

this show is brilliant !! lol

[MrMaggot420]

Is this making fun of the Piano Man by Billy Joel?

[frontliner2]

lol

i feel for ricky's character, but it's acting :))

[nath909]

everybody pug-pug, pug-pug. Do the pug dance.

[7Somerset]

whats so funny is that the song is actually good lol

They should release an actual single of this

[Lockhart2000]

I know I really like that tune.

[bongodrumms]

i know!

david bowie actually did the song and piano all improv. he made it up on the spot. just goes to show how much of a genius he is

along with ricky :)

[hpathbp25]

No, the lyrics were written by Ricky and Steven, while the melody was by David

[bongodrumms]

my bad. but they're still genius together :)

[JaxxDaemon]

he didnt make it on the spot.

[shakeyphil]

Doesn't Bowie look great

[Seana1Ford]

Ya for 61 here. He's hilarious. Ricky's facial expressions are classic :)

[shakeyphil]

61??

[Seana1Ford]

He's 62 now but I'm pretty sure he was 60 0r 61 in this///

[ottenterprises]

2:53 is the best moment

[fwooperboy]

If you had that kinda fame, I imagine the temptation to misuse it like that would be unbearable

[bonbon1995]

he should release this, i can see it being a big hit, lol

[MattSavage2006]

I really like it lol

[twinkles2ya]

chuddy little loser, national joke

pathetix little fat man, no one's bloody laughing

[NeonTiger94]

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

HAHAHAAHAAA!!

"the little??"

[loneorrea]

what does linda says? i don't understand it because of the accent -.-'

[conjarroll]

But the twat would probably miss

[loneorrea]

hahah i like that :D

thanks!

[sighteyed]

@conjarroll but the twat probably missed*

[hazzab123]

I love how David turns around and there's a piano.

[AlexandsebStudios]

@hazzab123 That's how David Lives his life.

[daflsaurus]

@hazzab123 some musical instruments follow him everywhere he goes.

[yasminossi]

hahahah...but its slightly unconfortable for me to see Ricky gervais s idol put him down!!! i know its a joke

[AvEryBadApPLe]

priceless!!!

[grantaldn]

Funny

[yaxofossiad]

Hahaha, this is amazing. David's voice makes anything amazing

Garvais+Bowie always =WIN!

[loneorrea]

hahaha ridiculous song, but it sounds great. :D

bowie you can make everything godlike.

hahah :D

[jacksparrowuver345]

OMG DAVID BOWIE IN EXTRAS takein the micky out of ricky

hahaha

this is soo funny

[Miketike]

This is really funny.

[EernieV]

David: It is any good?, (Third voice: Not it is shit!) Funny!

[GoogleSuperstar]

new silvercoffeesurfer movie: I lost you

[PompadourSamurai]

Bowie looks like Ichiro Mizuki here.

[eightdayweek]

david bowie is a dick lol

[nbarrett100]

this is tragic

[RisingDampChamp]

I sing this at my pet budgerigar a lot.

"Little fat bird who sold her soul, little fat bird who sold her dream.. Chubby little budgie.. See the little fat birdy with the pug nosed face"

Lol

[StevieBabbayy]

I love this show hahahahahhaaaa

[annmardun]

hahaha sooo funny!!! EXTRAS is suuch a great show they just take the piss out of everyone haha :P

[bentheled]

very very very funny!!!

[salutaumonde]

Honestly, one of the funniest single scenes of comedy I think I've seen. Absolutely hilarious on a number of levels.

[kidstalkpolitics]

Unbelievably funny!

[redgriff]

Can't help but feel mighty sorry for Millman there. Or Gervais himself!

[redgriff]

I don't like the fact this video is entitled 'ricky gets burned' this is Andy Millman getting 'burned'..not Ricky.

Yeah..

[roxannekitty]

lol I like how your sense of humor is determined by your location. According to youtube commenters anyway.

ANYWAY this video is hilarious, Bowie rules. Did Ricky Gervais write the song or did Bowie?

[Nneka1963]

Hi Roxannekitty, I believe that Ricky & Steve wrote this song for David Bowie!!! AMAZING!!! I think it's BRILLIANT!!! :D

[Nneka1963]

I just want to add, that David Bowie wrote the Music and Ricky & Steve wrote the lyrics! :D

[RisingDampChamp]

Yep Gervais wrote the lyrics =-P

[wildroverfilms]

Barry from eastenders hits them notes

ps. America gave birth to arrested development one of the best comedy's ever

[dudeboyboydude]

ricky doesnt get "burned by bowie" mainly becuase he wrote the script!!! ricky is sooooo funny, extras is amazing

[DB1410]

Ricky is deadly he is so funny in extra's!

[KnAWMR]

This is golden. One of my favorite moments.

[augustusdes]

One of the better moments in the otherwise poor and astonishingly overrated "Extras" TV show..

[chocuz]

You just don't 'GET' the humour, this show is genius! pure genius lol

[augustusdes]

I 'GET' most things and am well into my comedy. I sat stony faced through many joke-free episodes of 'Extras'. There,s something wrong there. Many of my friends felt the same. Maybe expectations were high after the 'The Office'..there was the occasional good episode of 'extras' but you just got the impression that everyone (critics etc) was kissing Gervais' fat arse..

[zephazoid]

Lol your obviously american. You only get comedy if it smacks you in the face!!

[Cotygeek]

Now hey, I'm American, and I definately get it. That guy's just a moron.

[cammy2009]

If he doesn't enjoy extras it's absolutely fine, let it go

[trustfundbabies]

So fun to see Bowie relaxed and funny...and still suave.

[MCFARLANE187]

this is classic, i seen it so many times, but still laugh !

[Natokowsky]

Daves a genius but this just looks lame attempt to appear normal or hip or something for the masses..still great voice thou.

[Wislor]

david bowie is a homosexual nigger loving shithead

[ClickMeMango]

and you are a biggot twat.

[TobyNicename]

but i love black people.

wait a minute! Natokowsky, YOUR black!

why you writin shit on the wall????

[andrew1984uk]

Your point is?

[willschollar]

lol well funny

[repelghosts]

seen him over 30 times, met him at least 4 times as his fave city is Toronto,Canada, as well as lovely Iman ,so pls no more emails from worshippers, just fans...jesus christ allmighty, give the guy a break.

J

T.O. the only place to live...ask any rock star...K...now let me clean the pool and have our Bar-B-Que...and hello to bowiesrebel90...who has a real brain, and is a true fan.

No rebuttals on my comments will be sent ,or heard from any of you....staff clear them as they roll in.

[msredimp]

Are you for real?

[ronaldinho12345678]

lol riky gets absolutely ripped. he got torn up ohhh nooooooooooo

[sy2pie]

i hate ricky

[repelghosts]

David hangs at Plush in the Four Seasons Hotel,here in Toronto...this looks ,almost like it! But it is noty...

Great vid - punk kid.

Jeff

Toronto

the Bowie City Forever!!!!!

[queenfan07]

hate David Bowie

[Bowiesrebel90]

Holy shit! I love David's hair in this song and yes this was after his angioplasty. He's still a very clever man and very talented!!!!

[dadarkant]

Poor guy XD!

Bowie should add this little nice song in an album!

He still has a GREAT voice!

[hapbarb]

This is gorgeous...

The Brit rock stars don't seem to be as prone to having lifts as the American ones do; look at Jagger as opposed to Steven Tyler.

[esmikd]

No it's shit

[animenerdtaylor]

This is hilarious.

[iamjohn89]

lol chubby little loser

[clammyclyde]

ahaha lol

[Claronium780]

he doesn't look like he's had much a tall

[robertk2007]

how much plastic surgery has bowie had? looks like joan rivers for christ sakes

[ivankaramasov]

It is called makeup. If you more "private" pictures of him, you can see that he probably hasn't had any plastic surgery.

[robertk2007]

give me a break, bowie has had more lifts than a skyscraper

[ivankaramasov]

I don't think so, but whatever.

[robertk2007]

you are probably right, why would i think an aging rock star would have a big ego.

[ivankaramasov]

Well, I have seen more "private" pictures of Bowie (that is pictures not taken in a public context), and there his face looks pretty much like you would expect for his age. Also he had a heart attack in 2004, and his appearance after that changed a bit, probably due to the medication which is known to have a "puffy" effect on the face.

[DieiNoctis]

Is it bad that I'd feel honored to be so insulted by Bowie?

[SatwaMan]

Lol !...that's horrible.

The little fat guy is a great actor ! Good job.

[ScouseBloke]

just pure gold !

[pinca002]

HAHAHAHAHA!! LMFAO!

[DocOfAreaology]

LMFAO! I'm laughing so hard, I'm crying.

[aro5006]

I like to imagine whenever David Bowie gets a song idea, a piano magically appears.

[RightOnQ]

I wouldn't be surprised if one did. I mean, he IS David Bowie.

[mootbugget]

This gave me endless lol's.

[glittercity]

the actual hilarity

[Celphei]

Notorious P.U.G

[chargergirl85]

OMG, this jingle as a ringtone...LOL!!! Awesome idea! I want it too!!!

[andyeveleigh]

5-star comedy... ;)

[reservoirdog666]

"yeah so do i its brilliant linda"

[IndIka024]

Ricky G in GTA IV.. WIN!!

[roflcoptor999]

ya i kno right... "ladys and gentlemen introducing Ricky G" (Drops controller "what did he say??"

[mavinajfan]

I have literally been sining this song all day and thought maybe I should liten to the real thing!

[cjason123]

yes that's great linda

[spanishlake]

God damn that's funny. I watched the whole episode recently and what's great is that the stuff that comes after this is screamingly hilarious and poignant as well! (Gervais goes back to the original bar where he felt like everyone there was a loser--but after being humiliated by Bowie now realizing that he's really no better than they are--and has a great time.)

[spanishlake]

[gebilboy36]

The brilliant thing is, you have no idea how bowie's going to react, but you suspect it's going to be bad... then it's the most humiliating thing you can imagine!!!

[daisychains1]

this is genius, if you haven't seen the whole episode check it out, when David Bowie get's the inspiration and then has everyone singing together all you can say is brilliant. Ricky Gervais is a guy who is thinking about comedy on a different level

[mdw1977]

My God, why can't we make comedy like this in the US?

[texasoilfields]

i know ... i couldn't agree more!

[adgta]

curb your enthusiasm is pretty good though, they get it right sometimes.

[texasoilfields]

i've only seen one episode and i wasn't terribly impressed ... maybe i should give it another shot, every series has its worst episode. have you seen arrested development? that's the only one we've got right in my opinion (and it didn't last long because of low ratings)

[adgta]

Yeah, us brits are generally better at comedy than you guys, I mean, Will & Grace...come on. U.S drama is better though, all the way back to Xfiles and now 24, Dexter rocks too. Mind you, when I was a kid I ,loved Married With Children. And you can't top U.S Cartoon comedy, simpsons, south park, family guy etc.

[auroraginga]

drama... better? You've GOT to be kidding.

[adgta]

no, serious, UK drama is shit

[texasoilfields]

our comedy really is pathetic. our second-highest-rated sitcom ever "friends" is appallingly bad. but do know what's really annoying? BBCAmerica does not give us quiz shows of any kind, nor does it give us Peep Show or anything other than footballer's wives. and you would not believe what they've done to Top Gear (edit out all the races, challenges and interviews i.e. only car reviews are left). i'm thinking of writing them a complaint.

[gebilboy36]

I'm British and I'd like to agree that British comedy is usually better, that British dramas are usually shiter, and America has no competition here for adult cartoons. The only really funny one I can think of frm britain is stressed eric and that had like five episodes five years ago.

[texasoilfields]

i'll check it out. i see its on youtube.

[adgta]

Download Top Gear from Mininova, it's worth it to see it properly! For that matter, download peep show too.

And ,yes, friends is fucking awful (what's your highest rated sitcom?)

[texasoilfields]

yeah both those shows are outstanding... especially the top gear races and challenges; near-perfect television for me. (the first one i saw was the race to monaco and i was hooked from that point on)

our highest rated sitcom is seinfeld which is mediocre (i don't know if you get it there). its obviously better than friends but that's not saying much.

[ivankaramasov]

Have to say that nothing can match Seinfeld. Except... Fawlty Towers, but that was just 12 episodes, so a bit ufair to compare.

[urbanspaceman1]

Seinfeld was good, but Fawlty Towers wins all the way.

[ivankaramasov]

I agree that the quality of Fawlty Towers is unsurpassed, it is still as funny now as it was 30 years ago. However, as I said that was only 12 episodes wheras Seinfeld was consistently funny over a period of 8 years. Pretty impressive I think.

[kurtisblow3000]

curb your enthusiasm and arrested development are both top notch.

[shelbyoneconobie2]

The little? .........PMSL so funny  ......no its shit hehehe the twat would probably miss thats great linda haha and pug pug m8 ;)

[Emotion22]

pug pug:-)

[c1212]

Brilliant. I love Bowie.

[laebrown]

be blows his bloated face off! LOLLLL what is it that "linda" says???

[impofhighnoon]

"But the Twat'd probably miss"

[laebrown]

Oh!!! LOL! Thank you :D

[macosgyver]

When Bowie asked if the show was any good, someone in the background kinda yelled "naw sh*t", and both of them got a little distracted. It's this little bit that adds a lot to the comedy. Brilliant.

[Joshie1234567890]

chubby little loser gosh thats a bit sad but who gives a shit ryt? awesome dude awesome!!!

[bettyrose11]

This is hilarious! It's one of my favorite scenes from all the "Extras" shows.

[labyrinthfreak]

Oooh, I love this video! David Bowie is so awesome!!!!! He's my favorite singer of all time.
