It's an interesting take on it, because I always thought that Ricky's humour comes out of his own insecurities. He doesn't come across as supremely confident - and that's what I like.

It's fun that people have different perspectives of different things!

Adding video to channels (Standup) - requested by rottenseed.

Gervais' stand-up is pretty bad. Mostly bottom-of-the-barrel observational humor. He's a brilliant writer and comedic actor, but somehow that didn't translate well to stand-up. It's the opposite with Louis CK. He's probably the best current stand-up comedian, but his sitcom sucked.

Maybe it also takes balls to talk about your own insecurities in front of hundreds of people.

But anyway I like Ricky Gervais too. He's not really as polished and smooth as some comedians but his original style and material make up for it.

Reminds me of Mitch Hedberg, who was absolutely brilliant at making quick jab jokes and then just wait a bit for the audience to keep up.
