Late Night with Seth Meyers

This guy. He's a special kind of awesome, please protect him. There's nobody else with the balls and the character to do what he's doing, without apology or contrived remorse.

3:43 Ricky's comment about Twitter: "It's like looking at every toilet wall in the world at once..." - Perfect summary😉

[draltar]

"people say that's controversial because they want you to shut up" - such truth in this sentence

[nietzschesmuse]

Ricky Gervais is the philosopher of British comedy I love his intelligence his braveness is amazing and he is deliriously funny!

[EstebanOconsHelmet]

His views and beliefs are an absolute mirror of my own, I just wish I had a molecule of his articulation skills and ability to express those beliefs in such a down to earth, matter of fact way. This man is one of a kind.

[sarahdeshay]

“I love nature and hate humans” that sums up my view. Thanks Rickey.

[panmrow]

I love how Seth doesn’t even finish his sentence and Ricky already has a great, funny response. It’s amazing how quick and brilliant his mind is.

[michaels]

This is one of the most fluid Host-Guest conversations I think I have ever seen. Two great comedians working off each other. Need to get Ricky back on your show more often. Seth, you are great, Ricky made you better.

[commodorecave]

Ricky is my hero. Tells the stark truth with great humor.

[cindyhaduik]

Ricky makes me laugh...and we need to have laughter in society

[stevieb]

Ricky Gervais has hands-down the most contagious laugh of all time

[jeangillespie]

Cannot forget his great animals rights work. He has the biggest heart for the world's most innocent! God bless him for caring so deeply. It's truly heartfelt.

[lmnopgr]

‘nature is super enough.’

and, ‘i hate people.’

hilarious. and so honest. ❤️

[bdidaho]

Thank God we still have comedians that are willing to offend others.

[nathanvarney]

the amazing amount of intellect that this man has is crazy, even more when people can't catch it. The things that he says when he is specking of things that are uncomformable but it makes you think is great. Modern day George Carlin RIP. this type of intellect will be missed

[jerushamaxwell]

I adore Ricky's clever points of view whether personal or written for standup comedy, his laugh, and his deep love for animals.

[roxtar]

Ricky's laugh is the best. Bloopers from Afterlife or Derek are hilarious.

[tdawgluxor]

This interview was so much better than Colberts interview with Ricky. The fact that it is one video instead of 3 alone makes it better but the overall flow was just right.

[tombdog]

His joke in one of his specials about Schindler’s list and tissues was one of the most outrageous, infuriating, funny, and brilliant things I ever heard.

[alessandraisjoking]

I love Rick Gervais. He's a genius of comedy.
