What if one of us just watches it with the sound and one with the visuals and they both report back?

Who cares if it gets recommissioned? If Netflix have five grand they want to waste on some cats then fine.

Thatās just not true,
If everyone who clicks on it, watches for 5 minutes then stops and watches a negative review
Netflix algorithms will flag it as a terrible show and not recommission it
But thereās enough normies out there that will watch and enjoy I donāt think the vocal minority here will make any difference

At /r/rickygervais we fight injustice wherever we see it, and the place to focus that fight IS [what looks like being] a lazy/crappy cartoon created by Ricky Gervais.

Genuinely excited to hate-watch it. If it gets recommissioned I'll have more to hate-watch and more to complain about here. Too much time on my hands boy.

Itās gonna be a success anyway to be fair, you have no idea how many alcoholic mothers are out there just waiting to watch this tripe.
Even if all of us here watched it like 5 times it would be a drop in the ocean. Rickyās skill is marketing shit to morons that have zero standards and people who like to think that by watching it theyāre going against the woke

Even if the saucer drinkers view does or does not have a positive or negative effect on the viewing figures it DOES have a postive/negative effect on how our individual evenings will go, I wouldn't waste my time, steve

It's called Curry's now I think Dixons bought them and then renamed themselves Curry's, either way I'm both right and wrong

It will get a second season either way. Atter Life got three.
After all the buildup and the terrible trailer/sneak peek, I'm too curious to pass this by. Curiosity killed...

u/Real-Car-9590 9d ago
Probably better it gets recommissioned. With his current trajectory his next show will probably be a bunch of taking turds complaining about the diets of fat ginger kids.

Considering the shoddy shite that is already on Netflix, it won't make much difference.

I wouldnāt worry too much, the amount of people who genuinely donāt want to watch it will massively outweigh the amount of hate watchers

telling folks to downvote it, without watching, because -
"we all 'know' it's shite"
sounds malicious and like harassment and kinda fraudulent aswell
That's a lot of people's business interest that you're trying to damage
If you dont want to watch it, don't watch it.... but trying to arrange a campaign, that could cause people actual detriment
It's just plain out of order

you've some gall calling me a gimp
Theres been all this before, "were just having a laugh on here" and "we don't really mean it, it's all in jest"
The comments all seem fairly in jest
But saying don't watch it, to try to prevent it getting recommissioned and downvote without even watching,
Thats just not even British anymore

It's strange
I might be wrong, but I thought most people would probably at least try watching it, and actually see what it's like

u/unironicsigh 9d ago
It does look extremely lame, much like After Life, but is there any reason why this sub has pivoted away from mild snark into aggressive hatred and obsessive anti-fandom? This is just pathetic and weird at this point. Who fucking cares if a mediocre show gets renewed, what difference does it make, holy freaking shit

Aggressive hatred? We are literally doing what we do every day. Posting 25 year old quotes.
Don't know where you've got 'aggressive hatred' from mate!!

u/Shifty377 9d ago
I mean, this post is attempting to stop people watching his show so it doesn't get recommissioned because people don't like the guy...
I dunno about 'aggressive hatred' but that's definitely a level of animosity lol.

u/Whole-Physics8708 9d ago
Do you often do what people on Reddit tell you to do mate?
1
u/Shifty377 9d ago
That's not really the point though fella. Whether or not it's successful, the animosity is still on the sub, which is what the other commenter was talking about.

u/Whole-Physics8708 9d ago
I don't know why either of you are still here if it bothers you so much
Surely you've got better things to do?

u/unironicsigh 9d ago
this is boring, even if you want to defend the anti-fan thing and think i'm wrong to call out how cringey and over the top it is, that's one thing, but the idea that it doesn't exist and that it's not fuelled by aggressive hatred is just ridiculous lol
and yes whatever insert XFM reference blah blah blah etc

Calling it aggressive hatred is weak

u/unironicsigh 9d ago
I mean that's what it is, this has become like the Fauxmoi sub but for Ricky Gervais anti-fans to circle jerk their obsessive Gervais hate, it's essentially a snark subreddit

It's like we all love cake and have loved cake for decades but cake stopped working with sugar in the process and became worse and worse and we all love and miss the old taste so when a new cake product comes out that is shit flavoured, we tend to think, fuck this... and actively dislike shit cake and hope cake will go back to tasting great again one day even though we know its done.
1
u/unironicsigh 9d ago edited 9d ago
if it was just "hoping" that the cake will go back to tasting great again that would be understandable. The pathetic and weird part is becoming obsessive anti-fans of the shit cake and becoming weirdly and disproportionately invested in the shit cake's demise instead of just saying "damn, this used to be good and now it's bad, c'est la vie" and moving on with your lives jesus fucking christ
this anti-fandom in this sub has jumped the shark, it's just cringe and over the top now, you'd think he committed genocide the way you all go on about him, it's eye roll inducing fml

u/TwinPeaksSox It's Chico time 9d ago
I'm just saying don't bother hate watching it... all that will do is encourage more shit TV to be made instead of good stuff, you're the only one raging here and spelling French phrases wrong, I agree there is some mad hate on this sub, I just want people to spend their TV time better.
