instant classic

OK , I'm going to start by saying this is one of the greatest shows the BBC has ever green-lit. The second season of Extras seems to be a more serious aspect of the show, the first season was a lot of underhanded dry humor and relied heavily on the humor as a whole. Though the second season has this undercurrent of tragedy to it, showing how Gervais's character transforms his ideals and his attitudes to that of a prickish actor. Though he can't seem to catch a break, whether it be the people he surrounds himself with or his general hate of his work and what he has become, and I just watched the second season finale and I must say welcome back to Robert Deniro, by far the funniest guest appearance of the season.
