I like Gervais no matter what some people think of him...he's always funny and at the same time if you want to discuss something serious with him, he can do that too. He doesn't make excuses for how he feels about things and when he does make a joke and offends someone...I don't really think he's ever done it so bad that he's had to apologize for it....not like some others have.
