As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

I believe this is the entire opening monologue. It's awesome, particularly the end. Ricky out there scorching the Earth!

Yahoo writes a story about Gervais' opening.

The important thing to note is the overwhelming percentage of user comments in full agreement with Gervais.

Meanwhile, tech world titan, Tim Cook, looked on stone-faced as Gervais praised Apple TV+’s marquee series The Morning Show as a “superb drama about the importance of dignity and doing the right thing made by a company who owns sweatshops in China. You say you’re woke but the companies you work for — Apple, Amazon, Disney — if ISIS started a streaming service, you would call your agent, wouldn’t you?

Who is the person in that Tweet?

Watch the whole monologue when you get a chance. The crowd shots are amazing. Gervais is talking to a group of people who only ever talk to yes men and people that worship them. Here's a guy who had them trapped and shit all over them.

I don't think so, but a good chunk of Hollywood reporters' jobs require a high level of fealty to maintain access.

Yeah, I'm not sure he improved the image he portrayed of himself with that clarification.

I enjoy how he worked sexist and homophobic into it, yet Gervais made no jokes that could be defined as either.

Now I'm dying to know who he thinks is allowed to consider herself a woman. SInce he considers them to not be, and he's gatekeeping.
