We didn't even learn he was gay until deep into season 2 (I think?) when he wakes up in bed with a man.
The difference between this and 'woke' shows that shove 'inclusion' down your throat is in a woke show, you find out he's gay because there will be a full-frontal scene of gay sex early on in the show.
God, that is SO good. How was it perceived by "Hollywood" I wonder. You see a lot of smug faces in the crowd but also hear a lot of laughs/cheers.maroon barchetta said:
The best awards show opening ever, Ricky Gervais, who is in the entertainment industry, calling out Hollywood for being woke hypocrites.
Yeah, it's a comedy bit. Like every comedy bit, there are strands of truth in the joke. Sometimes really big strands.

It was perceived as "this guy is committing social seppeku on live TV". If you want to sit at the cool kids table in the Hollywood cafeteria, you will conform. I think it's why it's such a hard pillow to swallow that the things that get you social credit boosts in LA also lose your studio $100 million dollars at the box office.

Guessing most of them take themselves too seriously to realize.

I mean they had him host five times and he made similar style jokes each time. Clearly it wasn't that outrageous.

He went off that last time though in a manner I had never seen him do before if I remember correctly. Wasn't just a couple of little jabs. It clearly was different as it went pretty viral. Also, has been invited back since?

He said he it was his last time he would host during his opener in 2020. Not sure if they tried to get him back despite that.

85 inch tv and no heavy breathing fat ahole near me digging into his bag of skittles like he's looking for the golden skittle at the bottom of the bag is why my theater experience is limited to 2-3 per year. I turn out for the greats I can't wait for (not many of these in a year) or those that should be a visual spectacle on the big screen.

Went to Mario Galaxy today. Holy crap it was loud. Like uncomfortably loud. I think I might be joining team stream at home. Bad experience and really effin expensive.

As a leo, Southland is probably the most modern day depiction of cops on the street. The day today struggles of work, private life and personal demons. Barney Miller show for us old heads, on the verge of retirement or who threaten to retire yet never do.

Studios cleansing themselves of people who warn them what the "modern audience" might be turned off by will be a huge step in the right direction.

there's some cut up videos of him discussing this during a stand up show and when he talks about having to give the monologue ahead of time to a room of 10 lawyers it's friekin hilarious!1981 Monte Carlo said:schmendeler said:1981 Monte Carlo said:schmendeler said:Sooper Jeenyus said:God, that is SO good.

Well he's telling a bunch of self worshiping narcissists to stop preaching like they know what the hell they are talking about, so I am assuming most didn't like it….even many who are laughing out loud. People are free to think most of them loved being called out though I guess.
he wrote pulp fiction so I doubt he caresSooper Jeenyus said:

So its sexist and ****ty to acknowledge men and women work and think differently? Granted, he hasn't presented any facts to back up his theory - buts its plausible given that men and women (in general) do not think/work in exactly the same way or with the same motivations.

He's not saying men and women think differently. He is talking about a problem as he sees it and blames women for it.

That's literally what he's saying based on the tweet. Guys look at Star Wars at a basic level, women take a different view and change characters.

Lol. Yes, and I'm not sure why this is remotely controversial. It's basic wiring. We are simple dumb creatures that can think linearly or not at all, if we need to. Women...not so much.
