Most helpful review Extras - Series 2

  • He Is Having A Laugh!

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By Steven A'Hearne from London,England , 21 Mar 2007

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Mr Gervais had a tough act to follow with The Office and I couldn't help but feel that the first series of Extras just didn't quite hit the mark, sure it was funny but was hiding behind the star names Ben Stiller and co to give it Kudos. Thankfully the second series really moves on, with the launch of his own sitcome Andy (Gervais) deals with fame in an awkward and funny way. The greatest triumph of the show is in the supporting cast with the performances of Ashley Jensen as Maggie and Barry from Eastenders providing great comic timing. The star of the show in many ways is Stephen Merchant as the agent Darren Lamb, here is where they have tapped in to comic genius. It is pleasing to see Merchant and Gervais working as well on screen as they do off it, Role on Series 3.

    This was quite different from the first series in that it focused less on the stars (although they are still there) and more on Andy Millman. I found it even funnier than the first series (especially the Orlando Bloom ep) and found myself getting into the sitcom that Andy stars in as well. It was also really good to see more of Darren and 'Barry'. Comedy genius!!!

    Better than the 1st series. The outtakes are hilarious too. Ricky and Stephen, you are the best! The guest stars are top notch too.

    Didnt think it would be as good as the first series of Extras, but definitely surpassed it - more belly laughs and great to break up the episodes so you can enjoy the disc over 6 nights.
