Ricky Gervais apparently ticked off some folks.

[wounded mullet]

Hosted the Golden Globes the other night and did more a roast style of celebs than the usual bland lip puckering.
I didn't watch it and just caught the highlights of what the controversial comments were. Didn't see what the big deal was, the Scientology comment was solid..

I watched it. The reception from the crowd was icy. Kind of awkward actually.

Gervais is gold.

 

[DynamiteMcGhee]

Ricky was great. The "offended" celebs can get over themselves.

 

[NYYVol]

I laughed.

big fan of gervais. the people complaining are also the ones that take themselves so seriously that they can't laugh at themselves. some people really need to get a sense of humor.

Haven't watched it yet, but it's hard to have a sense of humor if he dissed their religion in any way.

He didn't really diss scientology. It was more of a jab at some of the members.

 

[govols182]

I watched it. Pretty funny

He said: "jim carrey is a heterosexual man playing a gay man which is the complete opposite of some famous scientologist." Aka John Travolta.

He closed with, "And thank God for making me an atheist." Solid.

My biggest complaint is that it was the same stick he pulled last year. That got old quick, this time was more agonizing just because it was repetitive.

 

[GahLee]

He was great...best part was when he ripped Steve Carrel.

 

[MG1968]

Nikki Finke liveblogged the whole affair, she loved Gervais. She had some interesting things to say about how corrupt the Golden Globes are.

I think Steve Carrel knew he was just joking and that's why he did that.

thought he was great. Also thought Robert Downey jr was funny

Tom Cruise?

 

[DownNDirty]

Hey, Robert De Niro laughed at Gervais so screw the rest of Hollywood. If he can appease De Niro he's good with me.

I saw the bites and thought they were great. I loved the Sex and the City, "For Christ sakes, I saw one of you on Bonanza" comment.

When he was talking about the Walking Dead the camera immediately panned to Steve Buscemi. I don't know if Gervais arranged the shot for use during his schtick or if was purely coincidence.

That was awesome.
