Ricky Gervais Simpsons.

Does anyone know if the Ricky Gervais simpsons episode was shown with macrovision.

I taped it, to watch it later and when i checked to see if it had taped it the picture started stuttering.
This only happened when the opening credits started.

Re: Ricky Gervais Simpsons.

I have no idea, but if it did work could you send me the apology by Sky One referring to Chennel 4 ? That was a classic

Classic, but they neglected to mention that the average age of the Simpsons episodes they show is greater than four years..

Re: Ricky Gervais Simpsons.

it was a funny apology. Was it me or did a lot of the show seem very un-gervais? The first half of the show felt a lot more like the current crop of simpsons staff (no depth, crap jokes, sterotypes)

Re: Ricky Gervais Simpsons.

UkNova wont have USA programs. You would have to use other torrents sites. Mini ones, not uk ones....

Re: Ricky Gervais Simpsons.

Well my family watched about 5 minutes of this episode before deciding to watch the South Park Movie instead.

Re: Ricky Gervais Simpsons.

Watched it weeks ago, not that funny really. The Richard Dean Anderson episode is a bit better.

Re: Ricky Gervais Simpsons.

Not sure, they are showing the one where Grandpa becomes a Matador next week, the RDA episode is the next new one after that, but I can't find a uk transmission date for it atm.

Re: Ricky Gervais Simpsons.

Weeks of massive hype, and then.... crap.

Really wasn't very funny at all.

Gervais character was pretty awful.

Yeah I thought it was quite unremarkable, and the guy looked nothing like Gervais, didn't sound like him for a lot of it....
